When I registered for the Adidas King of the Road last October , I was informed that I can avail a 50% off on a miAdidas pair of shoes. By that time , my NB749 are starting to show signs that it’s retiring , and I saw that the Supernova Sequence has a miAdidas version. I grabbed their offer and immediately the store rep , myself and my ex-girlfriend (she’s my wife now) started the shoe design. I was advised that it will take 3 to 4 weeks before I can have my pair.
After less than 4 weeks of waiting , here is the finish product.
The base color is Sand with a combination trim of Light Orange and Silver. I was able to add an embroidered text (it’s my wedding date) .
There were only 2 colors available for the sole , so I chose the black one .The Pro Moderator (I use stability shoes by the way) part is the part that looks like a web. Adiprene is available on the small part of the forefoot (small grey colored part).
Pro-Moderator
The Adidas Pro-Moderator is a lightweight, highly stable yet durable, midsole motion control that enables a great toe-off.
adiPRENE Cushioning
adiPRENE is a highly shock-absorbent material that cushions and protects your heel impact. Optimized to offer you maximum cushioning along with great durability.
I was also able to choose for a team logo for the heel part..And I find this to match with my color c”,) . Formotion (silver part above the sole) is available
The shoe collar features geo-fit technology.
geoFIT
geoFIT is an internal footwear technology that enhances fit and comfort by placing padding in anatomically correct areas.
The sole features adiwear technology.
adiWEAR Outsole
An extremely durable, non-marking rubber used primarily for high-abrasion areas in tennis shoe and road running shoe outsoles.
The First 5kms.
I have only used this pair for a short 5.5km run around the Ayala Triangle. I have preserved it up to my wedding date. But now it’s done , this pair needs to hit the roads 🙂 .
I can feel the support provided by the pro-moderator. My feet felt more secure.
Cushion wise, I feel more comfortable wearing this than my NB 749 I’m just not sure if it will be the same after some long distance runs.
In terms of weight , I find this pair a little heavier than my NB749.
This pair will make its debut race on Condura this Feb but I will need to do more break in before the actual race.
