Adidas Adifom Q White Grey

Adifom is adidas making shoes out of moulded foam rather than assembling them from panels, and the Q is the model in that family that reduces a familiar silhouette to a sculpted shell with cut outs where the structure used to be. The company has form for this kind of engineering spectacle: springblade replaced conventional foam with splayed blades, and the adidas 1 was marketed in 2005 as an intelligent shoe whose onboard microprocessor ran five million calculations a second to adjust its own cushioning while you walked. White with Grey keeps the sculpture legible, since a two tone treatment lets you read the moulded form and the inner layer separately. Style codes IE7447 and HP6584 are both listed against this pair.
