Adidas Originals Superstar Takahashi Hiroko Black Men Casual | Who should NOT buy

As a low-cut shoe, the Swift R3 GTX is not perfect for deep puddles and river crossings. If you foresee the water overflowing the shoe's low collar, it's better to go with the adidas response running.

If on the other hand, you mostly hike in warm and dry weather, the waterproof GTX lining of the shoe will only make your feet hot and sweaty. To avoid overpaying for something you don't need, we recommend the non-waterproof adidas Originals Czapka beanie w kolorze khaki z logo Trefoil instead.

Breathability

Having tested a myriad of GTX hiking shoes in our lab, we have come to expect zero breathability from this type of footwear. However, the feature adidas feature adidas Camiseta Manga Corta Runner busted that myth in a mere second!

Performing our smoke-pumping test on this feature adidas shoe, we were quite surprised with the amount of smoke passing through its tongue.

It is obviously not as well-ventilated as the non-waterproof Merrell Moab 3. However, it is notably more breathable than its GTX counterparts. On a scale from 1 to 5, where 5 is the most breathable, we rated it as 2. Most Gore-Tex shoes only get 1.

But don't get us wrong. This shoe is still 100% watertight. In our transparency check below, it is clear that there are no perforations in the shoe's upper.

What's more, our microscope helps to show you how incredibly dense the shoe's material is.

Durability

Toebox durability

In order to keep a GTX shoe's waterproofing intact, it must be protected from punctures and tears. And as our durability test shows, you have to be extra careful with the feature adidas feature adidas Camiseta Manga Corta Runner.

Applying our Dremel to the shoe's upper textile for 12 seconds at a speed of 5K RPM resulted in a small yet critical puncture. This made us lower the toebox durability rating for this feature adidas shoe to 2 out of 5.

Heel padding durability

Another potentially frail area in hiking shoes is the heel padding. But not for the Terrex Swift R3!

The shoe's heel collar lining stood up to our 4 seconds of drilling very well. The barely noticeable scratch convinced us to rate the shoe's heel padding durability as 4 out of 5.

Outsole hardness

Like any other feature adidas Terrex shoe, the Swift R3 GTX uses Continental rubber for its outsole. Having a reputation as a hard-wearing compound, it did not disappoint.

Measuring the rubber hardness with our durometer, we got a measurement of 85.9 HC. This is considered average for a hiking shoe outsole and is a good sign of long-term durability.

Of course, we turned to our Dremel to test the outsole's abrasion resistance. Drilling it unapologetically for 22 seconds at the speed of 10K RPM, we were pleasantly surprised.

According to the tread gauge, the dent was only 0.9 mm deep. This is a little less than the average and earns this feature adidas shoe bonus points for durability.

Cushioning

Heel stack

Looking at the bottom of the shoe, we saw an imprinted writing: "STACK 15/25 MM." To be honest, this left us quite perplexed because we actually measured the shoe's heel stack height at a whopping 36.6 mm!

adidas terrex swift r 3 gtx heel stack 20415510 720

adidas Meteorite Pack 27?

Either way, based on our caliper measurement, there is more than 3.5 cm of protection between your heel and the ground! This is one of the tallest hiking platforms we've seen in our lab.

This makes the feature adidas feature adidas Camiseta Manga Corta Runner one of the best options for rocky trails with sharp rocks and other technical terrain.

In the forefoot, the midsole thickness becomes drastically smaller. With a caliper measurement of 20.7 mm, the forefoot stack of this feature adidas shoe is about the same as the average but much taller than the officially stated 15 mm.

Drop

This leaves us with a significant heel-to-toe drop of 15.9 mm! A few millimeters taller than the average, it raises the heel notably higher above the toes.

This makes landings extra cushioned and protected while letting the forefoot bend more easily and feel the ground better for stability.

Midsole softness

Note: a low durometer measurement equals a soft material, whereas a high measurement means it's firm.

What's really nice about this feature adidas Terrex shoe is that despite its burly and stiff construction, its cushioning happens to be not as firm as in most other hiking shoes.

Using a durometer, we measured the shoe's foam softness at 26 HA. This makes the Swift R3 GTX 18% softer than the average!

Difference in midsole softness in cold

Given that this feature adidas shoe is intended for colder climates, it is nice to know that its cushioning doesn't turn into a rock in low temperatures.

Having kept the shoe in the freezer for 20 minutes, we repeated the durometer measurement. At 30.5 HA, the foam only got as firm as most other hiking shoes are at room temperature.

Compared to other hiking shoes in our lab, the feature adidas feature adidas Camiseta Manga Corta Runner firmed up by 17.3% which is notably less than the average difference.

Stability

Stability is truly phenomenal in the feature adidas feature adidas Camiseta Manga Corta Runner. In spite of its low-cut collar, the shoe actually feels a lot like a hiking boot!

Compared to other shoes in its weight category, this feature adidas shoe made us feel incredibly surefooted on tricky trails involving unpredictable rocks, roots, and other debris.

Adidas feature adidas Camiseta Manga Corta Runner stability

We also found that the Pro-Moderator technology (embedded into the sole on both sides) is an excellent foot stabilizer. It worked very effectively to prevent side-to-side movements of the foot which made our legs less fatigued at the end of the day.

Torsional rigidity

The shoe's exceptionally rigid build is the primary reason behind its stability. It is nearly impossible to twist the shoe and you have to put A LOT of effort into it.

Thus, we rated the torsional rigidity of the feature adidas feature adidas Camiseta Manga Corta Runner with the highest score of 5 out of 5.

Heel counter stiffness

Contributing to secure heel hold is the shoe's stiff heel counter. On a 1-5 scale where 5 is the stiffest, we rated it as 4.

Midsole width in the forefoot

In the widest part of the forefoot, we measured the sole at 114.5 mm. Blessing to the lateral outrigger, this is a few millimeters wider than average.

Flexibility

Stiffness

From our experience, the feature adidas feature adidas Camiseta Manga Corta Runner definitely feels on the stiff side. However, our lab test shows that it is not stiffer than the average.

According to our force gauge, it takes 34.1N to bend the shoe to a 90-degree angle. Just about the same as the average.

But because of the shoe's burly design and protective overlays, it actually feels rather stiff on the trail.

Lug depth

The writing at the bottom of the shoe reads: "LUGS 4.5 MM." Indeed, we found this to be true based on our own caliper measurement.

The lugs are also well-spaced in the Swift R3 GTX, making it harder for mud to get stuck in between.

Size and fit

Toebox width at the widest part

Trying the shoe in our regular US size 9, we found that it runs larger and even a bit wider than expected.

In the widest part of the toebox, for example, we got a caliper measurement of 102.7 mm. This is nearly 4 mm wider than average!

However, there is also more space in front of the toes. This made the shoe less than ideal for descending as our toes would bump into the shoe's pretty hard toe bumper (but from the inside). Thus, we recommend going at least half a size smaller than your regular hiking shoe size.
