Public service announcement: Because I am seeing misinformation, from this video, spreading all over the running shoe internet. This video was recorded nearly a year ago at TRE23 and the information that Patrick Nava explained about the AP4 having two types of foam in the midsole (the upper section being standard LSP and the lower section being LSP Evo) was correct when this video was recorded but over the past year the Adidas team changed the foam in the shoe. Patrick Nava also explained in a more recently recorded BITR podcast (E296) that the Adidas team changed the foam makeup in the AP4 in the final production release. Both parts of the AP4 midsole are now standard Lightstrike Pro (LSP), the supercritical TPEE foam we have known for many years in Adizero shoes... just a new formulation of LSP that is lighter, more airy and has incresed resilience (according to the brand). There is NO Lightstrike Pro Evo foam, from the Evo 1, in the final release version of the AP4...
Thank you for the call out! This is news to us as none of the tech we were provided has this callout and the adidas team did not provide us with this foam swap information. With that being said, we have a test pair in the office and the new foam does feel incredible but its a bummer we couldn't provide the most up to date information on the exact foam compound used in the shoe. Hopefully, the other info provided in this video is still helpful. -Connor
I was running in the Adios 6 yesterday and was thinking, "Man! It's hard to find shoes like these anymore." Hell yes! Please keep low stack shoes alive, please!
Kudos to Adidas, just what I was hoping for that Evo’s tech would trickle down to the masses with the price point to match. Also, would love to see football match between BTR and Warehouse but in running shoes😂
AP4 looks great but unless the toe box is wider (looks pretty narrow), it will be a miss for many again... Blister machine! Also, hope this shoe will last longer than 1 marathon like the EVO Pro. AA9 is fire!!!
I really dig the terrex speed with full lightstrike pro and now the adios 9, I am excited. Interested to see the minimal continental outsole, hope the new outsole holds up the mileage for everyday runner. I believe running marathon in the lightstrike pro is easily possible but not for a PR.
CPU is a ridiculously durable material. Chinese shoes have been using that for a while and the material just won't wear down. If you check some good marathon shoes from brands like Li-Ning, Qiaodan and X-TEP you'll see those outsoles.
This is certainly a bit overdue. I just can’t enjoy my Pro 3’s. Much prefer AF2/3’s and Meta Speed Sky Paris. Obviously they don’t suit me. They feel very unresponsive and I’ve never been able to get up to speed and also maintain it. They clearly work for many other runners though. I’m interested to see how the Pro 4’s are though. They do look awesome as well.
Adios 9 looks like it has a more pronounced rocker which I don’t like. I would have preferred Adidas had kept the flat racer with low profile, flexible, traditional racer for the Adios. I guess time to stock up on Adios 8 😢
5 guys talking about a shoe. Not one was able to say how the shoe fits… Adidas tend to be off with sizes, it would be helpful to let people know how they fit so we can buy it when they become available. These hyped shoes are not available to try on on a store before buying them. Thanks 😊
if it makes you feel better, the adios pro 3 midsole has legendary durability. I'm not sure if the same will be said about the 4 since it has some of the same foam found in the pro evo
First, put at least 50km into the pro 3 before judging it. Then enjoy the next 400km. I know the upper sucks, but the midsole and outsole is so good and durable that you just enjoy running in them. Yeah, no idea if the Pro 4 will be just as durable.

@@runningwarehouse Drop Patrick and email, I'm sure he can give you to most current specs. Thank you for the pin Connor.
I was running in the Adios 6 yesterday and was thinking, "Man! It's hard to find shoes like these anymore." Hell yes! Please keep low stack shoes alive, please!
that adios 9 is everything i've ever wanted in a fast day shoe
And now getting the full Lightstrike Pro is so exciting
Going to be tough to beat takumi sen tbh, goat workout shoe
Will be interesting to see how the durability is. Apparently the Pro 3 has been the most durable supershoe out there.
Skeptical of that tiny piece of continental. One of the best part of the 3 was the excellent grip in the wet.
And the durability of the Continental
Forbidden red shoe finally sees the spotlight. Adios 9 FTW
Adidas is going to be taking this year
I will say, again!!
Oh they filmed this EARLY and kept quiet for this long? Proud of you, Thomas
Embargo magic!!
Adidas is upping their game! Getting the Adizero SL2's today. Coming from Saucony, Nike, New Balance and Asics I'm excited to start with Adidas.
When did the Ghostbusters start reviewing running shoes?
I'm so excited for the Pro 4 and the adios 9! I prefer to run most workouts in non carbon fiber plated shoes so hopefully the adios 9 works for me.
Adios Pro 3 rocked! Can't wait to try out the Adios Pro 4! Great stuff Running Warehouse and Believe in the Run!
Kudos to Adidas, just what I was hoping for that Evo’s tech would trickle down to the masses with the price point to match. Also, would love to see football match between BTR and Warehouse but in running shoes😂
Where is the Boston 13?
The adios 9 looks so handsome!
Thomas looks like he had a hell out a night the night before ;)
AP4 looks great but unless the toe box is wider (looks pretty narrow), it will be a miss for many again... Blister machine! Also, hope this shoe will last longer than 1 marathon like the EVO Pro. AA9 is fire!!!
A great rotation would be: SL2 daily, Evo SL tempo runs and workouts, Pro 3 long runs, Pro 4(race). Recovery maybe Supernova Prima.
Beautiful shoes!!
Equally interested in Adios 9!!❤
Robbie, grow a soul patch to go with your moustache!
Adios 9! Intervals day will get much better!
Like from Spain. Happy week.
I’m confused, when is this available in the US? The video said Sep 29 this year, but Adidas own press release says January 2025.
Can't wait, so excited!!!
“ I can’t tell if Connor looks surprised or that’s his face all the time” so funny, and I’m suprised that he knows it. 😅
Conner is the man!
The pro 3’s rubbed blisters on knuckle of my feet. Loved 1’s and 2’s but never ran in my 3’s after 3-4 tries and blisters/raw skin each time
Nice catch Megan!
SICK LOOKING SHOE! 🎉

Adidas is throwing all of their merch out at the top Tubers. Great marketing !!!
How's the sizing? Is is the same as the Adios Pro 3?
Hmmm, I toe-off more mid to lateral so I wish the Conti area was larger.
Was this at the Running Event?
What's with the janitor jump suit?😂
That RED color is 🔥! Will they release both colors at launch?
Anything about the next Boston
When will the AP4 get a general release? Early '25?
It's coming this week 😅
Can i buy it from somewhere?
Release date of the 4 in the uk please ?
What shoe is Robbe wearing?
YES
What shoes is Patrick wearing?
Looks like Takumi Sen 10
Sweet!!
GIMMIE!!

Rip to my wallet in this Fall season.
Thomas just left his auto garage to attend this meeting.
Adidas has sent BITR crew on luxury tours around the world. I’m sure no bias at all from that
CONNOR eyes :)
Finally
I wonder why there isn’t wider shoe for speed runner in adi, does wider feet means slow in competition 🙃
Well the adios pro 3 and adios 8 at least both accomodate my wider feet
similar looking upper materials to the pro 3 😭blister machine
Did Meg said anything?
Looks like it's gonna another great year for 2025 Adidas racers line-up vs Nike Alphafly 3 which is the only racer from Nike!
I spy an SL2 ❤🎉🎉🎉 Adidas
Adios 9 looks like it has a more pronounced rocker which I don’t like.
I would have preferred Adidas had kept the flat racer with low profile, flexible, traditional racer for the Adios.
I guess time to stock up on Adios 8 😢
I already tried it here in The Philippines. It's so lightweight. Stability wise it's not that stable when it comes to turns. Cushion is great.
Meron na sa stores to? Sa app coming soon palang
@@boogieuhuh Yup sa Trinoma ako nagsukat
@@rysupastar718sure ka na ap4 yung nasukat mo? Anung colorway?
@@SimplengTaoLangPo Neon Green nasukat ko. P13K
what about the width? narrower/wider/same (wit the adios 3)? and wab the durability (can you predict?)
5 guys talking about a shoe.
Not one was able to say how the shoe fits…
Adidas tend to be off with sizes, it would be helpful to let people know how they fit so we can buy it when they become available.
These hyped shoes are not available to try on on a store before buying them. Thanks 😊
Keeps that weird shaped narrow heel with gigantic forefoot. Unfortunately my feet just don't work with that :\
Are you guys in pijamas or about to do an oil change?
just bought the pro 3 😢

Every single running channel releasing the same shoe review on the sale day within a few hours of each other. What's going on.
I must have heard wrong, it sounded like he said the shoes were $500.
$250...The Evo is $500
Neuberger looks like he just got out of prison on a work release program.
still narrow
I see robbie raccoon in a youtube video, I click...
Evo, $500.00 dollars to run in it once, 🤔 have fun.
RW X BINR
Disappointing , just 4 guys talking and not giving voice to Meaghan
White William Harris Daniel Lewis Barbara
Wait this is so dumb😅
Nike is cooked

Damn it 🤌🤌 Hellovah good looking shoes 👌truly looking forward to the Adizero Adios 9
