The Adidas Adios Pro 4 Is a Hot Mess

The Adidas Adizero Adios Pro 4 is a marathon racing shoe designed for fast race attempts. Priced at $250, this generation features a new midsole foam that drastically alters the ride experience from the previous version. In this video, I take the Adios Pro 4 out for a 20 mile long run and let you know my thoughts (spoiler alert: it's a hot mess).
