The novelties in running shoes do not stop appearing, with releases from the main brands that appear all the time. To help runners who are looking for new shoes to spend some time around, I tested some models sent by companies. Who knows, you can take advantage of a Black Friday promotion?
Adidas Adizero Adios Pro 2
The sneakers are the top of the line for the German brand. Lightweight and comfortable, its technology practically pushes the runner off the ground. Developed with insights and data from the world’s fastest athletes, such as Tokyo marathon Olympic champion Peres Jepchircir, it is aimed at more experienced athletes who are looking for high quality tennis and are willing to invest more.
The pairs feature two layers of Lightstrike Pro midsole, a support structure to provide energy return, carbon-infused tuned Energyrods designed to limit energy loss, and a new heel structure that secures the foot using a lock. non-slip.

Asics Novablast 2
The new model from the Japanese brand arrived in August this year. It follows the line of the latest releases from competing brands, with a higher sole, which creates a feeling of estrangement at first for those who are not used to it. The shape is standard, with good elasticity, and there is excellent impact absorption. I recommend it for intermediate runners, who are looking for more advanced shoes.
Compared to its previous version, from 2020, the shoe features “a sole that offers a smoother and more efficient stride” with FF Blast foam, according to a statement from the Product Director of Asics Latin America, Daniel Costa. There was also an increase in the width of the mid-foot of the shoe, with a more asymmetrical design in the midsole geometry, which, together with the TPU buttress, provides more stable stride.

Row KR5
The model was one of the surprises this year. It arrived on the market as the lightest product ever developed by Fila Brasil. With a smaller drop, it can please those who are used to the more traditional models, as it is different from the latest releases. In practice, it fulfills the promise of an ultralight – in the first steps causing a certain strangeness. As it’s more affordable, it’s a good shoe to start with, but the runner can feel the difference in the future as they evolve into a heavier model.
The fabric upper gives good breathability, and the Fuse technology promises greater strength. An inner plate has been placed for stability in the midfoot region, while two rubber dots on the back and front, with Evergrip, provide traction.

Olympikus Corre1 Eco
The limited edition model is a basic running shoe, but its main difference is in the material used. According to the Brazilian brand, it was produced with recycled and renewable components and has materials such as EVA Verde, produced from sugarcane. The difference these materials make is clear, but it doesn’t impact performance. It’s not a heavy shoe, and I recommend it for those looking for a more traditional model with less environmental impact.
As for technology, Duoflow results in greater cushioning, while HyperSox, a material with polyester threads recycled from plastic bottles, provides breathability, comfort, flexibility and lightness. Gripper and Gripper Plus offer ground grip and impact absorption with natural rubber extracted from the rubber tree.
