Size 13 men’s. This shoe offers good cushion from its mid sole. What I do find after owning the adistar 3 spw this is more geared towards running. It has less space in the toe box which I find to be more comfortable on the spw 3 but this still feels good. Padding around the opening feels good, the tongue isn’t padded but so far I don’t mind it’s light. I do find that this newer version cushion started off a little harder than the spw 3 that I own but the more I wear it the softer it feels. The heel offers good cushion when you walk or run. It still doesn’t feel as soft but I will see if it does get as soft over time. The balance for me is great and it’s stable enough not to have that feeling like you will roll your ankle while being active. The shoe is light with good grip and seems to be well made. One thing can be said for adidas you will hardly find other cushion shoe comparable on the market for the price you can get the adistar lineup for. I recommend this as a cushion shoe with stability, I still think the adistar spw 3 is a better option for cushion based on my experience but this fits better for a good run.

Great midsole that has plenty of energy return and a nicely formed and smooth upper.
