adidas Consortium Overhauls the ADIZERO Pro RNRS High for the Boston Marathon

Following on from its retro of the EQT Cushion ‘91, adidas Consortium is back with another pair that honors next week’s Boston Marathon: the ADIZERO Pro RNRS High in “White/Green.”

While the aforementioned EQT pair featured a black upper that was decorated with “EQT Green” city map embroidery, marking out routes for the marathon, this pair is made from a gauze-like Celarmesh material that’s semi-transparent, making for a very light, breathable, and close-fitting shoe. Multiple eyelet options decorate the upper for a tighter and customized fit, while the strategically-designed heel clip and tongue come together to better secure your foot in place.

A particular standout feature for this running shoe is its sole unit, which combines a Carbitex carbon fiber plate sandwiched between a firm yet squishy BOOST heel segment and a firm and propulsive Lightstrike system that runs the length of the mid-foot to the forefoot. A Continental outsole adds to the overall wearing experience and is well balanced for a sturdy, grippy run, but at the heel you’ll find an AdiWear section that better suits the BOOST above it.

This particular offering features a colorway that starts off black at the toe and, by the means of green flames, turns white towards the rear. The same pattern decorates the multi-piece sole unit, while the tongue and heel appear in black.

adidas Consortium’s ADIZERO Pro RNRS High in “White/Green” is due to launch later today on Nice Kicks’ online shop, costing $180 USD. Take a closer look at the pair above.
