The Adidas Adizero Adios Pro 4 is a dedicated performance shoe, best utilized for distance running, including marathons and half-marathons, as well as speed work and tempo runs where pushing boundaries is the goal. Its design is focused on helping runners achieve their personal bests (PB).
Marathon Running: The combination of LIGHTSTRIKE PRO cushioning and ENERGYRODS 2.0 provides sustained comfort and energy return over long distances, making it ideal for the demands of a marathon.
Speed Training: The aggressive rocker point and snappy feel are highly beneficial for track workouts or fast-paced road training, promoting efficiency and speed.
Race Day: This shoe is built to perform when it matters most, offering the technological advantages to convert effort into faster times.
Neutral Pronation: Designed for runners with a neutral gait, providing the necessary support without over-correcting natural foot movement.
Break-in Period: While designed for speed, consider a few shorter runs to adapt to the shoe's unique feel and rocker geometry before race day.
Surface: Best suited for roads and track surfaces where its traction and cushioning can be fully utilized.
Running Form: The shoe encourages a forward-rolling motion; focusing on efficient running form can maximize its benefits.
Rotation: Consider rotating these shoes with a more durable training shoe for everyday runs to extend their lifespan, reserving the Adios Pro 4 for key workouts and races.

To ensure your Adizero Adios Pro 4 shoes maintain their performance and appearance, follow these general care guidelines:
Cleaning the Upper: For the textile and synthetic upper, gently wipe down any dirt or mud with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes.
Cleaning the Outsole: Remove any debris from the Continental™ rubber outsole after runs. A soft brush can help with stubborn dirt.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators), as this can damage materials.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees or stuffing with paper to help maintain their shape.
Washing Machine: Do not machine wash your running shoes, as this can degrade the materials, cushioning, and adhesives.
