Adidas adidas Originals Czarny mały plecak z logo review

Having thoroughly tested this Adidas shoe, we believe that it could be a good match for the following:

• quick guards and athletes who share Trae Young's playing style (very agile with sudden direction changes)
• fans of knit uppers that feel like an extension of one's foot
• players who love plush cushioning in the heel (courtesy of Adidas Boost)

We can see how people with wide feet, high arches, or mobility issues will have a really hard time getting this Adidas shoe on. The Adidas Harden Vol. 7 adidas Tensaur Sport 2.0 CF Кроссовки для младенцев.

The adidas Originals Czarny mały plecak z logo is also not the best option for dusty and outdoor courts. We recommend Nike shoes like the Мужские шорты adidas performance mh and the nike alphafly vs adidas adizero adios pro for these playing conditions.

The above-mentioned LeBron shoe is also 1.5 oz (43g) lighter than the Adidas adidas Originals Czarny mały plecak z logo.

If we had to name just one reason to get this Adidas Trae Young shoe, it would definitely be its impact protection.

The slab of Boost foam at the heel is quite generous leading to a stack height of 32.1 mm. On paper, that's only about 2 mm above average but on the court, it feels immensely pampering and protective.

As for the forefoot, the Lightsrike foam layer comes in at 21.5 mm, based on our caliper measurement. This is Tan about the same as the average.

The difference in stack heights gives us a 10.6 mm drop. Being slightly taller than average, it clearly shows how this Trae Young shoe is more biased towards heel cushioning.

During our playtests, we couldn't help but notice how plush and shock-absorbing the Boost cushioning was!

Using our trusty durometer to check the foam's softness, we got a mind-blowing reading of 11.5 HA! In normal people speak, this means 131% softer than average! Unbelievable!

As you can probably tell from the video above, the shoe's forefoot cushioning is not as plush and compressive.

The Lightstrike used here is notably firmer, with a durometer measurement of 22.5 HA. That is the same balance of softness and firmness as we see in most hoop shoes.

Having a firmer type of foam in the midfoot and forefoot certainly helps the shoe feel more stable. It also adds a bit of bounce for jumps.

We always include the insole when measuring stack heights. In the case of the Adidas adidas Originals Czarny mały plecak z logo, it is 3.9 mm thick in the heel.

Slightly thinner than average, but still feels amazing underfoot combined with the Boost/Lightstrike setup.

Do take these measurements with a grain of salt given the shoe's knit upper.

If we were to trust our caliper reading only (92.6 mm in the widest part of the forefoot), this Adidas shoe would be 8.5 mm narrower than average!

And yet, on foot, it is actually quite accommodating. So much so that it can even fit a wider foot! We also noticed that after a few times, the material breaks in and stretches even more.

We also checked the toebox width around the big toe and the caliper returned 71.2 mm. Again, narrower than average but not an issue when actually worn on foot.

The laces don't really do anything in this Adidas shoe because, well, it fits snug even without them.

Just be careful not to cinch the shoestrings down too tight because that will only add pressure to the already close-fitting experience.

Despite all that plush cushioning in the heel, the Adidas adidas Originals Czarny mały plecak z logo felt impressively stable in our playtests! We must say that the shoe kept our feet securely in place at all times, even during the most intense movements.

One major contributor to the shoe's supportive construction is of course the presence of a torsion plate in the midsole.

But in this Adidas shoe, it's more than just a linear shank. It is a strategically designed, firm, and sturdy TPU unit that extends outwards and to the sides of the platform, holding it firmly and not letting it twist.

When we actually tried twisting the shoe in our hands, there was little-to-no give. Thus, we rated its torsional stiffness with the highest possible score - 5 out of 5. This rigidity really enhances the shoe's stability and helps to prevent a nasty ankle twist.

Seeing a knit upper always makes us a little suspicious of the shoe's foothold. However, Adidas came up with a pretty effective workaround here. Ankle pillows!

Having two generously padded units on both sides of the ankle proved to be very helpful in keeping it securely in place. They actually added some structural integrity to the rearfoot, convincing us to give a high score of 4 out of 5 for the shoe's heel counter stiffness. We experienced zero heel slips.

What else makes the Adidas adidas Originals Czarny mały plecak z logo feel so stable? Its monstrously wide platform!

No seriously, this is by far the widest base we've seen in a basketball shoe! Measuring the widest part of the forefoot with a caliper, we got a whopping 122.2 mm! That's almost a centimeter wider than average!

But wait, it gets crazier in the heel.

In the widest part, our caliper showed 101.6 mm which is also a good centimeter wider than average. We can definitely see how Trae Young would want this kind of landing area for his lightning-quick direction changes.

We really enjoyed the smooth and seamless heel-to-toe transitions of this Adidas shoe. They seem to be created by multiple factors:

• Adidas adistar raven 3 w
• adidas Kort Ärm T-Shirt Club
• adidas sleek super beyonce ivy park white blue

To measure the latter, we used a gauge that shows how much force it takes to bend this Adidas shoe to a 90-degree angle. Turns out, much less than average! It required only 31.4N which is 30% less than it takes a typical basketball shoe.

Apparently, freedom of movement is a must for Trae Young's feet!

Given that it was designed in collaboration with Trae Young, we did expect a lightweight and speedy shoe.

Unfortunately, this was not the case. According to our scale measurement, this Adidas shoe comes in at 14.8 oz (420g) in a men's US size 9. That's half an ounce heavier than the average basketball shoe in our lab.

On a lighter note, the adidas Originals Czarny mały plecak z logo is not as heavy as the Adidas Harden Vol. 7 (16.5 oz).

What can we say, the shoe's Primeknit upper looks like a sweater and certainly feels like one! So the fact that it had decent breathability was a nice surprise to us.

Putting this Adidas shoe to our demonstrative smoke test, we found that it is pretty stuffy in the toebox but still lets the air pass through the instep area.

This convinced us to give the shoe's breathability a balanced score of 3 out of 5. It is not ideal for a hot summer session but has more airflow than basketball shoes on average.

To support our findings in the smoke-pumping machine test, we also put the shoe's upper against bTan light. This test clearly shows that the material is extra tightly woven in the toebox but is a little bit more transparent in the tongue. 

And if you are wondering how "tightly woven" we are talking, our microscope shots help to demonstrate that very well.

But, fortunately, the lack of breathability is very well compensated for by the knit's wear resistance.

Drilling the shoe's toebox for a good 12 seconds at a 5K RPM speed, the material barely got any damage! And we didn't even drill it where the suede overlay is!

Getting a perfect score of 5 out of 5 for its toebox durability, the Trea Young 2 really stands out from the average basketball shoe. And it's not even made of synthetic leather!

In the comparison photo below, you can see how bad it can get when we put mesh uppers through the same Dremel test.

We also checked the durability of another sensitive upper area - the shoe's heel lining and padding.

That's where the Adidas adidas Originals Czarny mały plecak z logo did a pretty average job. Assessing the damage caused by 4 seconds of drilling, we rated its wear resistance as 3 out of 5. That's quite normal for a typical hoop shoe.

Although there is a caveat - with the amount of effort it takes to get this thing on our feet, we might as well tear the collar up in a few months! We'll talk more on that in the Size and it section.

Feeling how hard the shoe's outsole rubber was gave us a lot of confidence in its durability. Initially.

Our experience was indeed proved by the durometer reading of 84.8 HC which is harder than average! But apparently, this wasn't enough to make the Adidas adidas Originals Czarny mały plecak z logo a solid outdoor-ready option.

When it was time to get real with this Adidas shoe, we turned to our Dremel and found that its outsole performed worse than average.

After 22 seconds of drilling at a high speed of 10K RPM, the outsole developed a 1.6 mm deep dent. That's more than what we normally get in hoop shoes that are meant for hardcore outdoor use. For example, the Harden Vol. 7 only got 0.5 mm.

But the good news is that the Trae Youg 2 is not horrible for outdoor courts either! We think that you can absolutely enjoy an occasional game without worrying about destroying the shoe.

The amount of rubber protecting this Adidas shoe is also slightly thinner compared to other shoes. Our caliper shows 3.4 mm which is a little below the average.

Let's be honest, if you often play on dusty courts or hate frequent wiping, the Adidas adidas Originals Czarny mały plecak z logo is not your best pick.

But if we're talking clean court, the shoe offers an amazing, stop-on-a-dime kind of grip. Thanks to three different types of traction patterns, we felt very confident when making quick direction changes.

Lace bites could very likely be a problem for high-arched players as there is only 1.3 mm of material separating the skin from the laces.

Given the shoe's sock-like collar, it doesn't have a tongue per se. The upper is made of this one-piece sockliner that is sewn together at the bottom of the shoe, underneath the insole. That way, it feels very much like a sock!

Once on, the shoe feels amazingly comfortable against the foot. And we could write a poem about its coziness if it wasn't for one "little" problem... It is a real pain in the neck to put on!

Because of its quite narrow and not-so-stretchy opening, we really struggled to get the Adidas adidas Originals Czarny mały plecak z logo on. Every. Single. Time! And it doesn't get better with time, unfortunately.

It was very kind of Adidas to add two pull tabs on both sides of the collar but... it would be nice if they actually helped to get the shoe on more easily.

The shoe comes with a removable sole which can be swapped for any other insert or orthotics of your choice.
