Who shouldn’t buy it
The tricky tongue is not a problem with the Adidas Adizero Adios Pro 3 which didn’t receive any comments about it. Also, the Adidas Adizero Adios 7 is a recommended speedster that doesn’t feel stiff underfoot.

For taking on faster runs over short distances, critics agree that the Takumi Sen 9 is a solid pick. A critic mentioned that they just “can’t help but PR in these.” Others mentioned that faster efforts such as short intervals, tempo efforts, and races are where these shoes would excel at. An expert confirmed this saying that for longer efforts, the Takumi Sen 9 seems to “not have quite enough shoe.”

The Adidas Adizero Takumi Sen 9 feels so fast
An expert who compared these with other super shoes in the market says that: “The ride is a tad firmer and snappier.” For one critic, they said that they “can definitely feel the energy return” with each stride. They also said that it “feels more natural during toe-off.” Another plus is that for a fast shoe, a critic mentioned that “it doesn’t feel unstable at all.”
Fits just like how a racing shoe should
A critic mentioned that these kicks “fit like gloves on your feet.” Another then said that the Takumi Sen 9 has a “slightly snug fit” from heel to toe. However, for an Adidas fan, they mentioned that this “fit is fairly normal” for a speedster despite the slightly wider but lower volume forefoot.

As for breathability, the extremely thin mesh upper is described as “very breathable” by a critic.
A little bit of everything in the Adidas Adizero Takumi Sen 9
With a perfect blend of a firm and bouncy feeling underfoot, the midsole of these racing flats “just snap right off as it rolls through” according to a critic. As for the incorporated ENERGYRODS, one said that these “provide mild to moderate stiffness” throughout the shoe, making it stiff but not as stiff as a fully carbon-plated super shoe.
Overall, experts were really pleased with the performance of the Takumi Sen 9, with comments such as “very fun” and “very lively” making up the bulk of their reviews. However, a couple of experts mentioned that these upgrades from the Takumi Sen 8 weren't something they were crazy about.

The non-gusseted tongue of the Takumi Sen 9 is modified from its predecessor which had a gusseted tongue. Runners mentioned that they found this comfortable without being annoying during the run. However, pre-run, an expert mentioned that they found it “a little bit difficult” to get the tongue to be perfectly flat when lacing up.
