The idea was as simple as it was brilliant: to provide every athlete with the best possible equipment. It all began in 1920, when Adi Dassler made his first shoes using the few materials available after the First World War. Today, the adidas product range extends from shoes, apparel, and accessories for basketball, soccer, fitness and training to adventure, trail and golf.

Customer Reviews

Great for officiating summer games
I needed a pair of new sneakers to officiate basketball during the summer for AAU games. Now, I didn't want to wear my usual patent leather that I normally wear during the winter season.

These shoes are great for running up and down the court b/c they are light on your feet and as a true running sneaker...they have this 'mesh' look to them which kinda gives off an air condition feeling.

The look of them is mostly black with a shade of titantium on the Adidas stripes. They hardly show up. Bersides, most refs I see sually have some distinct white showing on their mostly black shoes.

I would buy these again especially for under $50.

good price for a good product
This has been my first dedicated running shoe in a while. I would say that I have been very pleased with this shoe. It is light, flexible, and very comforable. I suppose that a hard core runner could recomend a better shoe for 3 or 4 times the price, but for a shoe around $50, this is fairly good.

5'10" 240lbs and love them
I love these running shoes I have put close to 100 miles on them and I am 240lbs, and they still fell good.
