So my take is that if you are a heel striker, Adidas Gazelle OG Homme Vente Boost may provide a bit of an economy benefit for you in a very well cushioned shoe. If you are a midfoot or forefoot striker the benefit will likely not be as noticeable. Different shoes likely work better for different gaits.
Adidas Adipure Gazelle MedialAdidas Adipure Gazelle Side: My first thought upon putting the Gazelles on my feet was the they were insanely comfortable. The footbed is glued down (but removable with some effort) and lightly cushioned, and feels great under a bare foot. But, where this shoe really shines is the upper. It¡¯s made of the same stretchy, spandexy (is that a word?) material that composes the entire upper of the Adapt, and is extremely comfortable against the foot (feels kinda like a stretchy sock). There are, however, a number of differences between the uppers of the Gazelle and the Adapt. Obviously, the big difference is that the Gazelle has laces and a more traditional ankle cuff. The laces attach to the adidas stripes on each side, and this combination alone makes this look much more like a running shoe Adidas LA Trainer Homme Boutique than the Adapt ¨C I really like the look of the Gazelles.
If I had to compare the adidas Gazelle to another shoe, the closest I could come up with is the Saucony Hattori LC. Both are crazy comfortable shoes with a stretch upper, and both feel great on the run. If it weren¡¯t for the hot spots I get in the Hattori¡¯s under the balls behind my big toes I¡¯d have a really tough time recommending one over the other, but given that issue for me the Gazelles are the more versatile shoe. Both are fantastic for walk around use and short runs, but I can do ten miles in the Gazelles (including speed work) with no problems and that tips the scales.
I¡¯ve run two solid runs in the Gazelles, one a 10 mile interval workout, and the other a 7 mile easy run, both on asphalt (Update: now have 50+ miles on these and still loving them, durability has been great so far). The feel underfoot is very similar to the Adapts, so I feel pretty comfortable commenting on them even with limited mileage (and I couldn¡¯t wait, loving this shoe too much!).
I really didn¡¯t anticipate putting a lot of miles on the Adios. I suspected I¡¯d wear it a few times, decide that I didn¡¯t like it, and write a review saying as much. However, I¡¯ve wound up running in the shoe quite a bit more than I expected(probably around 50 miles now), and am rather surprised by how it has performed.
It¡¯s important to keep in mind that the comparison here was between shoes that only differed in their midsole material, everything else was the same. There is Vente Adidas Tech Super Homme no detail about which Boost shoe was used, what the midsole dimensions were, etc. So it¡¯s very difficult to compare economy gained running in a Boost shoe to any other shoe on the market. As an example, previous research has shown that reducing shoe weight by about 3.5 oz (100g) results in an economy improvement of about 1%. So if the shoe used was the 9.3 oz Energy Boost, then it might not be any more economical than say the 5.7 oz adidas Gazelle. The benefit would be that yo Adidas ZX 700 Homme France u get the improved economy with additional cushioning in the Boost.
