Latest News About Adidas Pro Evo 3

Here’s the latest on Adidas Adizero Adios Pro Evo 3.

• What it is: Adidas’s newest flagship carbon racing shoe, claimed to be the lightest in the Adizero lineup, with a redesigned carbon/foam system and a new Energy Rim around the midsole. It aims to push running economy and propulsion for elite marathon performance, while staying within World Athletics height limits.[1][2]

• Key specs and claims: average weight around 97 grams (UK size 8.5) and about 30% lighter than the Evo 2, with reported improvements in running economy by roughly 1.6% and greater forefoot energy return due to the updated foam (Lightstrike Pro Evo) and the Energy Rim design. It features a 39mm heel and 36mm forefoot stack with a 3mm drop, and uses Continental Rubber for grip on the outsole.[2][1]

• Availability and price: highly limited initial release from late April 2026, with broader availability planned for the fall marathon season; pricing cited around $500/€500 in some sources. Early hands-on reviews note the shoe’s ultra-light feel and carbon-lean design compared with prior models.[3][4][2]

• Early impressions: first-run videos and reviews consistently highlight the shoe’s ultra-light weight (sub-100g category) and the Energy Rim concept as a notable shift from traditional carbon plate designs; reviewers also discuss fit and stiffness alongside the potential durability considerations given its racing-focused nature.[4][6][3]

Illustration (example): A chart of EVO 3 weights and forefoot energy return vs EVO 2 would show a ~30% weight reduction and ~1.6% economy gain, with Energy Rim contributing to the stiffness profile.
