The Adizero team at adidas has continued to innovate for many years, and the adizero Evo SL lives up to the bill, being the lightest shoe that the entire range produces. Surfacing adorned in a vibrant aesthetic, the next round of color schemes appeared after the successful launch of the White Black iteration that introduced the model in 2024. With Wonder White and Core Black Iron Metallic colorways also in the pipeline, the silhouette will make an impact for professional and casual runners this year.
Designed as an offshoot from the Elite line adizero Adios Pro Evo 1 silhouette, the German sportswear giant is ensuring the availability of the Evo SL outweighs its big brother while maintaining the latest footwear technology. The Lightstrike Pro midsole allows the shoe to weigh just 188g for women and 224g for men (approximately). The new midsole is the latest in energy retention and cushioning impact concepts, with the incredibly light material providing a robust response while proving durable.
With a thunderous look, the adidas adizero Evo SL arrives daubed in hues of lucid lemon that envelop the engineered mesh upper, allowing maximum flexibility while keeping a secure fit. The priority was to provide super-lightweight comfort, and the shoe delivers. The vibrant color continues across the shoe, from the lining to the lace set and midsole.
Black accents appear along the midfoot, and the Three Stripes branding extends to the sole and on the tongue, featuring linear adizero branding. More Adizero branding is seen along the insole, and the sneaker's moniker is carried along the heel lateral. Underfoot, metallic silver accents the Continental rubber outsole, which extends as a toeguard, completing the minimalist design.
The adidas adizero Evo SL Lucid Lemon is set to release on February 1, 2025, via adidas and select retailers online and in-store. Available in unisex sizing, retail is $150.
