Esiod - Purple/Violet Fusion-Coffee Metallic

At a glance you might mistake these for a new addition to the adidas Adios marathon range. Instead, the Esiod is a lifestyle model inspired by the Germany manufacturer's athletic achievements.

An ultra-high stack midsole echoes the Lightstrike cushioning of the top-tier running products, but there's no springy ENERGYROD carbon plates to get your PB time down. Instead the Esiod aims to give a comfortable ride whilst looking fashionably wild.

The synthetic uppers mimic the classic running shoe materials of the '90s and 2000s, with a super thin mesh upper giving a lightweight feeling to the shoe which reminds us of track spikes. The lining features strategically placed padded sections, making these deceptively comfortable – contrary to what the stripped-back uppers might suggest.
