Sinful Return! Adidas Kanadia TR

I decided to come back earlier than plan....but my engine to blog will pick up slowly......coming back with a "sin" is more than "perfect"

History has shown that whenever I am down and out of running...I will have new gears and new shoes and this down time without fail as well.....

This season Adidas Trail Shoes called Kanadia TR

shoes

from the dictionary, Kanadia is a country north of the United States with indentity issues to the extent that they can't decide on a currency, language, or whether to split up or stay together. The third largest land mass in the world, with large oil reserves in Alberta, a placid/polite and relatively small population, and a large unprotected border. A country that not only tolerates the French, but caters to them...............interesting

The shoes has its name tagged below the ankles and along the support structure

shoes

Instead of using a double or triple density foam on the medial side, adidas uses a rubber strip that runs from the heel counter down the middle of the outer foot and the arch area of the inner foot to the outsole

shoes

The aggressive outsole provides grips to uneven surfaces of the trail

shoes

The 3 strips are not sticked to the mesh but is used to allow locking the foot with different tension of the lacing system...notice that this is not a waterproof shoes but one with good ventilation and drainage which is suitable for local tropical trail terrain and environment

shoes

The first feel of this shoes are it is light and low to the ground, the midsole is not as hard compared to typical trail shoes and the adipene at the heel landing aera is soft....the mesh is soft and well ventilated..need to go to the trail to test out its grip and protection performance....this is good for fast and furious trail runs

shoes

Very colourful and striking colour combination

I stumbled across your blog entry when searching for images of this shoe. How does it feel on the road. I'll be doing a mix of road and trail, about 20 minutes of each at a time. I bought this shoe, but upon getting it home, it feels like it might be too stiff for the road. Your thoughts?

Hi Chef.

thanks for dropping by....yes..this shoes is meant for trail running so the midsole is stiff than road shoes...if u need a shoes that can run both surfaces, you may need to consider the north face arnuva 50 which is meant for both road and trail runs

I was considering this as well but couldn't find it at any Adidas outlet. Where did you get it?
