The brand focuses on continuously elevating athlete efficiency through revolutionary cushioning systems, advanced climate control fabrics, and sustainable manufacturing using recycled premium materials. Below is a guide to the core patented Adidas technologies. Discover how innovative midsole structures, adaptive upper knits, and smart weatherproofing elements help you shatter your training goals while delivering absolute comfort for everyday wear. ### COLD.RDY The COLD.RDY technology is designed with heat retention in mind. The technology utilises intelligent materials and designs that trap and retain warm air close to the body, preventing it from dispersing. Although it is designed to retain heat, the technology also provides breathable properties. This is important to avoid overheating and provide comfort during vigorous physical activity. ### Lightstrike EVA A unique EVA-based material used exclusively for the soles of adidas Performance running shoes. It is 15% lighter and 10% more durable than conventional EVA. ### Traxion Traxion technology is a spike on the outsole that provides maximum traction on all surfaces without increasing pressure on the foot. As an added benefit, this technology minimises foot strain. ### PRO-MODERATOR A thin and durable thermopolyurethane film that covers the outer part of the midsole under the arch of the foot. It is designed to provide reliable midfoot support, effective pronation control and maximum push-off with every step. ### Aeroready Aeroready technology actively wicks moisture away from the body, allowing sweat to evaporate quickly. This helps to keep you dry, prevents unpleasant sticky feeling and creates a comfortable training environment. Materials with Aeroready technology provide good ventilation, which promotes air circulation and maintains an optimal body temperature during intense training. ### Boost Adidas Boost technology is a cushioning concept based on the use of expanded thermoplastic polyurethane (E-TPU). This technology provides a high level of energy return and cushioning through the unique honeycomb structure of the midsole. The TPU foam granules store and release energy with every step. ### HEAT.RDY HEAT.RDY uses high-tech materials and designs that promote efficient moisture wicking and increase ventilation. This allows the skin to breathe and maintains an optimal temperature regime, preventing overheating and discomfort. ### Geofit Geofit is a technology that provides the foot with extra comfort and convenience through anatomically positioned cushioned pads inside athletic shoes. ### Stretchweb This is a web design that distributes shock load and promotes foot flexibility. This technology allows the sole of the running shoes to flexibly adapt to the surface, raising the runner's comfort and performance levels. ### Cloudfoam The material used around the entire perimeter of the midsole is highly cushioned and virtually weightless. In models with this technology, the insole often has a memory effect, and the heel area has a special cushioning frame to keep your foot firmly in place. ### EnergyRods EnergyRods technology, consists of five customised carbon rods that mimic the metatarsal bones of the foot (the part of the midfoot bones that connect the ankle to the toes), allowing runners to maintain speed for longer. The rods work similarly to a plate, but are more flexible. ### Lightstrike PRO+ The Lightstrike PRO midsole combines energy return and excellent tread stability in one of the lightest TPU foams on the market, which runners will appreciate even over very long distances. Lightstrike PRO is an improved form of the well-known Lightstrike midsole. ### adiPRENE+ adiPRENE+ is an ultra-elastic material designed to maximise force in the toe area during kicking off. ### AdiWEAR adiWEAR® is a high-strength rubber compound material used in the construction of the outer sole. Significantly extends the life and functionality of the shoe. ### TORSION TORSION® - a system that provides limited rotation of the forefoot against the heel and supports the arch of the foot, helping the sole to adapt to uneven surfaces and preventing it from rolling over. ### FORMOTION A system of gradual adaptation of the running shoe to the surface at the moment of foot placement, which promotes energy absorption, significantly reducing the rate of pronation of the foot. ### Adiplus Innovative technology that effectively absorbs shock with every step, distributing the load and reducing foot fatigue. ### Dreamstrike The adidas Dreamstrike cushioning technology is a lightweight and flexible foam that distributes pressure evenly across the entire outsole, reducing impact and providing a smooth transition from heel to toe. ### Strung Adidas Strung is a textile fibre mesh composed of yarns that are precise and structured. By fine-tuning the structure, Strung technology provides optimal support, flexibility and breathability in the areas where it is most needed. ### Light BOOST Adidas Light BOOST is an advanced cushioning technology that maximises energy return, making every step more dynamic and efficient. Light BOOST is 10 per cent lighter than previous BOOST versions, reducing stress on the feet. ### Linear Energy Push Linear Energy Push (LEP) technology is an innovative system integrated into the sole of the running shoe that improves stability and energy return when running. LEP increases stiffness in the midfoot, which helps maintain proper foot positioning. ### REPETITOR+ Adidas REPETITOR+ is a cushioning technology that uses a denser EVA material for improved support and stability, especially in the heel area. It complements the lightweight REPETITOR foam, giving the trainer the perfect balance of cushioning and stability for long runs. ### Bounce+ Resilient cushioning that combines softness and springiness, providing a feeling of energetic support with every step. Thanks to an elastic layer of high-density foam, Bounce+ helps reduce impact and provides comfort even during long workouts or active days. ### Adibouncy An innovative shock-absorbing insole designed to enhance comfort with every step. It combines resilient material and an anatomical shape to effectively absorb shocks, reduce stress on the feet and provide a feeling of lightness even after a whole day on your feet. ### Fitcounter An anatomically shaped heel counter that provides secure heel support without restricting the movement of the Achilles tendon. This design helps prevent friction and increases comfort during running or long walks. ### LIGHTMOTION Lightweight and resilient cushioning technology designed for fast starts and dynamic movement. It provides excellent support, reduces stress on joints and helps you switch easily between running and everyday activities. ### TORSIONRODS A technology that incorporates special inserts into the sole to enhance stability and support the natural roll of the foot. It helps to better control movement and improves stability during running or training. ### Techfit Compression fit technology designed to support muscles during training. It improves blood circulation, reduces muscle vibration and fatigue, helping you maintain energy and efficiency for longer, even under high loads. ### Support Rods Special rods built into the midsole guide foot movement and provide optimal support from landing to push-off. This technology helps stabilise your stride and reduces stress on your feet while running, making every movement more natural and safer. ### Cloudfoam Comfort A soft and elastic insole that perfectly adapts to the shape of the foot, softens every step and reduces pressure on the foot. ### CLIMACOOL The technology provides optimal ventilation and effectively removes moisture, keeping you feeling cool and dry even in hot weather. ### PRIMEKNIT A three-layer innovative fabric that combines lightness, elasticity and softness, providing comfortable warmth and freedom of movement. ### WIND.RDY Technology that provides protection from wind and cold. It helps maintain optimal body temperature during training or travel. ### CLIMAWARM+ Adidas' advanced thermal insulation technology provides optimal warmth and comfort in cold conditions. Special insulating materials effectively retain heat and wick away moisture, maintaining a natural body temperature and keeping you dry even during intense activity. ### Body Mapping Anatomical fabric zoning technology that adapts different areas of the garment to the body's specific needs for improved ventilation, support, and comfort during movement. ### Real Cool Cotton™ Technology that provides a feeling of coolness and increased comfort due to improved cotton breathability.
