If you prefer a lighter and more affordable pair of adidas met running shoes, we recommend considering the adidas met originals wmns forum low mid swarovski white.

And if you are concerned about the upper stretching out too much over time, we urge you to have a look at the 4DFWD v2. It comes with a more structured upper.

We thoroughly enjoyed the soft, springy ride of the adidas met 4DFWD. It was really surprising to find out that the shoe was even bouncier than the previous 4D generations.

There is a distinct sensation of forward motion in this adidas met shoe. Running in it is a very unique experience - there is no foam and yet the ride feels really soft and well-cushioned.

Not the best summer shoe

The Primeknit upper of this adidas met shoe falls short in the breathability department. Despite having a lot of ventilation pores, they don't seem to be working well in letting the air pass through.

Assessing the shoe's breathability using a smoke-pumping machine, we rated it as 2 out of 5 where 1 is the least breathable.

Even its astonishingly thin tongue (1 mm) couldn't help to improve breathability.

The "softness" of this 4D kind of midsole is so remarkably comfortable, that it can compete with the adidas met Boost itself.

Measuring the shoe's cushioning softness was quite a challenge. Please take our durometer measurement with a grain of salt given that this is not a foam. Our measurement shows that the 4DFWD is 33% firmer than average.

However, when the lattice construction comes to life on the run, it creates a very plush underfoot sensation.

But keep in mind that in cold weather, the midsole will get firmer. After 20 minutes in the freezer, we found that this adidas met shoe firmed up by 21%.

Measuring stack height is also tricky with the 4DFWD. But based on our caliper measurements, the midsole is 33.3 mm thick in the heel...

...and 24.4 mm in the forefoot. This is right at the average of daily running shoes.

Disclaimer: All of our stack measurements are taken with the insole included.

Checking the insole thickness in the heel area, we found that it is well-cushioned at 4.7 mm. The average among running shoes is 4.5 mm.

Stability is not compromised in the 4DFWD

Given the shoe's tricky midsole design, having a wide and stable base is essential to prevent the runner from wobbling. We found that the outriggers on the sole really help in making the shoe feel more stable.

Using a caliper, we measured the widest part of the shoe's forefoot at 116.2 mm, which is 3 mm wider than the average.

Back in the heel, the widest part measures at 95 mm. This is 5 mm wider than average.

Nice and flexible

The shoe's 4D setup turned out to be very pliable too.

Our resistance test shows that the adidas met 4DFWD is 22% more flexible than the average among Стильные мужские кроссовки adidas met x9000 l3 core black red.

In a manual assessment, we also rated the shoe as 1 out of 5 (where 1 is the most flexible) for both longitudinal and torsional flexibility.

Weighty on both feet and wallet

With a weight of 11.9 oz (336g) in a men's US size 9, this running shoe falls on the heavier side, making it somewhat of a drag for daily training sessions.

Its weightiness in the area of pricing is a valid cause for concern too. An MSRP of $200 is significantly more expensive than the average $130 for adidas met running shoes.

Expect well over 500 miles from the adidas met 4DFWD

The shoe is lined with a generous layer of rubber that instills confidence. Even though it is not the famous Continental rubber that is often used by the brand, the outsole still delivered.

Indeed, we measured the rubber layer at 4 mm while the average for road shoes is 3.4 mm.

The rubber compound also turned out to be impressively firm. Based on our durometer measurement, it is 9% harder than average. In our experience, the outsole's firmness is proportional to its durability. It means that the adidas met 4DFWD has promising durability.

Size down: the upper might stretch

Because of its stretchy knit upper, this kick can become too loose over time. On its official product page, adidas met actually recommends that you grab a half-size down for a snugger fit.

One more point in favor of sizing down is the shoe's highly flexible heel. We rated it 1 out of 5, where 1 is the most flexible. Because there is no structure to it, your heel might end up floating around if the size is too big.

The eco-friendly adidas met 4DFWD

• Its single-piece Primeknit+ upper is made with 50% recycled materials. It provides breathability and extra support in strategic areas.
• This sneaker is also made with adidas met Primegreen, an innovative performance fabric made with recycled plastic.
