Crafted with Adidas' innovative technology, the Prime X 2 Strung pushes the level of racing shoes to a new world. Combining a Strung upper, 3 layers of Lightstrike Pro, and two carbon-infused core plates results in this super bouncy trampoline-like Prime X 2. The innovative use of 3 layers of LIGHTSTRIKE PRO, stacked at 50mm height with an energy core between two foam layers, reduces weight and offers enhanced spring in the fore- and midfoot.

Some people may say is heavy, yes it is a bit more heavy than average running shoes but after some miles you get use to it , I'm 46 years, 1.86 cm and 79kg running an average 50-75k weekly ,best 5k 17min and 34 sec, and this shoe made my runs smooth not fast as others elite shoes but very comfortable and resilient, highly responsive, best cruiser on the market ,and I would like to mach it to the Triumph Rocket 3 Storm R ,a biker knows what is it, this is my second purchase of x2 strung and made over 1000 km in the previous one and still have some life left. Im using X2 alternate with Takumisen8 and I have a message for ADIDAS,.... ADI I hope you won't change the version of this shoe , X2 Strungi is perfect as it is. Thanks!

Super comfortable, bouncy and excellent energy return. Fits well on my feet, true to size. I can run long distance on these with my feet feeling fresh. The only downside is the price, very expensive hence for 4 stars.

These shoes were heavier than I expected but they are excellent for long runs - The 50mm stack saves your legs so much! I'd say worth the price tag they work so well

One of the shoes makes a loud clicking noise, which started after 9km. I have reached out 4 times to have them replaced with no response.
Great fitting shoe for bigger feet only run 20km so far but firm and responsive
Awesome, very bouncy, a little bit stiffer than the previous version but more stable. In the end, it seems you are running on a Pogo Ball :)
A road racing shoe illegal for everyone except masters athletes. If you’re a masters athlete and you are not wearing the Prime X 2 Strung in road races, you’re being a fool to yourself and a burden to others.
The shoes is so great. I really like the ride and every stride of this shoes
The Prime X 2 Strung is a major step forward for those who wanted a more stable ride and that I would almost recommend for everyone. It is an excellent daily trainer, long run and uptempo shoe and I recently used in the Sydney Marathon. It is purely meant for training purposes, rather than its predecessors that while illegal for major competition, were still racers at heart.
I love my Adidas Prime X Strung 2's. Wore them for two runs this week that had strides in them and cruised the rest of the way. All of that foam feels amazing when running at an easy pace, but really came to life during the strides. They also keep the legs feeling fresh. I did 15 miles today and I don't even feel like I ran this morning. These will be in my rotation at least 2x a week moving forward and with all of that foam, I am sure they will be around for a long time!
