Good!

What’s the point of resurrecting a sneaker? To rule the world, of course. Adidas ZX 9000 rose from the archives and did that with a series of left-and-right collabs and special releases while staying true to its sporty silhouette that was first introduced in 2008. This ZX sneaker also has a stable-feeling Torsion sole unit and a soft and easy-to-clean upper so what's not to love?

Comments saying the kicks are “awesome-looking” or “very very dope” is raining in the review section. But aside from the sporty look of this 2008 silhouette, the kicks are great for running and for casual use according to the testers.

Others

  • The sneakers are easy to clean, based on the reviews. 
  • Out of the box, the midfoot feels weird. “It’s not terrible but you might be a little turned off,” one tester said. “Just give it time, and it will all go away,” they added.
  • The laces have hints of 3M. Some colorways also have reflective materials on the side stripes or on the counter. Additionally, according to the reviews, the kicks actually look better in person. “The pics on site don’t do them justice,” said one sneakerhead.
