Adidas AdiZero
Adidas Discus/Hammer shoes
These are labelled as Adidas’ top of the line throwing shoe. They are billed purely as a discus and hammer shoe. The sole of these shoes are not nearly as fast as the equivalent Nike models. This makes them a lot less suitable for hammer throwing. When looking at top hammer throwers, few choose to wear this type of shoe. For discus and shot putting this is a different story. Many top level discus throwers and shot putters really like this shoe as it provides enough speed in the circle and gives a nice feeling. These shoes are extremely durable however so they work great as a training shoe to get a lot of throwing reps done. Another area that lacks in these shoes is the lack of grip. They are renowned for slipping and not working overly well in wet conditions.
