Adidas has many shoes out right now but all have the infamous problem of gel sole! They make there soles out of a gel substance which blows out very easily. Many consider the last good shoe adidas every made was the matwizard 2 but by far and away adidas most popular shoe line adidas ever made was the combat speed. There are so many forms of the combat speed OG, or west germans, teals…etc. there re very many and some of the very rare west germans in good condition can sell for over 1000 dollars a pair. They didn’t have the best sole but they held up decently and the old school looks appeals even today and combats could very easily be the most coveted shoe of all! John smith has his own line of matwizards which were a good shoe they probably had the best sole design of any shoe. Adidas made a great decision also using that sole in the super slay sponsored by Brandon smith. Adidas sponsers the Olympics and all the Sydney shoes are good along with the beijings both designs have a good sole The adistrike line will be worth something later because they are a good looking shoe but have a sole problems so there wont be many left. Adidas probably has the best looking shoes around, if they could get a good solid sole design they would be in business.
