Our verdict

A blast from the past that's ready to last! That could be the slogan of the classic 1998 Ozweego. We loved every step in this plush and wide companion, as it kept us on our feet and walking all day long. Its retro vibe, combined with some futuristic details the brand has been adding throughout the years, made us completely fall in love with it. In our lab, we discovered it has kept some of Adidas' best technologies, as well as the big and loud vibe the Ozweegos are known for. Stylish, roomy, lightweight and, on top of it, affordable. This adidas d96817 Originals animated yeezy bape characters list!

adidas d96817 sacks shoes clearance 2017 online

Apart from chunky lovers and 90's style fans, you should also go for the Ozweego if you are:

  • Looking for a lightweight and comfortable pal to stand or walk around all day long.

Who should NOT buy

Honestly, we couldn't find many cons for this shoe!

But, as its not the most breathable pair out there, let us give you some other options. If you're looking for something stylish you can wear in summer's hottest days, go for the well-ventilated New Balance 237. If you're a hardcore adidas d96817 fan, then we believe the adidas d96817 deerupt boys white women boots shoes free should work as well.

If you need some new kicks with a classic style and a retro vibe that are made with durable materials, we think you should check any of the 3 big S: the adidas d96817 Samba, the adidas d96817 Spezial, or the adidas d96817 Superstar.

Breathability

When we review shoes, we make sure we tell you in which seasons you should wear them. Some of them should stay in your wardrobe when Mariah Carey is everywhere, and some others shouldn't see the light when the Summertime Sadness hits.

To see how well-ventilated the adidas d96817 Ozweego is, we pumped it full of smoke. Our main purpose is to check how much of it the shoe lets out.

As you can see in the video, at the beginning the smoke only escapes from the tongue. Nevertheless, right at the end, you can see the toebox actually letting some air out too.

Thus, we rated it as a 3 on a 1 to 5 scale where 5 is the most breathable. This is an average score, which means you can enjoy these big boys all year round. Nevertheless, it might be too toasty on really hot days, and an ice cube on very cold ones. Keep it in mind!

As that last bit of the video was a really nice surprise for us, we decided to check the shoe's upper transparency. As you can see, it was all in vain, as there are no ventilation holes at all.

adidas d96817 ozweego 001 21037895 720

Our microscope was sure of it. As you can see, the material is tightly woven, check it out!

adidas d96817 Ozweego Breathability_15

Not a single hole or pore. Just a white bunch of thick threads! So it's safe to assume that this pair will be good enough for winter. If you want to wear it when it's colder, grab a pair of cosy socks and keep your feet happy!

Durability

Leather/Suede quality

As Adele would say, pantaloncini adidas d96817 2018 black edition tire size... adidas d96817 Ozweego this time.

This is our test to check if the materials are genuine or not. So we grabbed our blowtorch and decided to heat this up a little bit.

We found out it was all authentic. You see, whenever a material is synthetic/fake, it starts burning into flames after a couple of seconds.

Toebox durability

These trainers' upper is made using a mix of leather and mesh. Leather is supposed to be a durable element, especially if it's real/authentic. And according to our breathability test, this shoe's mesh has no ventilation holes and is tightly woven, so... is the Ozweego a toughie, or a softie?

Let's ask our Dremel!

Even though its toebox's materials seem to be singing adidas d96817 sacks shoes clearance 2017 online adidas d96817 fh7884 shoes 2017 women.

adidas d96817 Ozweego Toebox durability

The leather part put up a bit of a fight, and in the mesh zone... well, the durability is not as good, but we can't actually say it's bad either. Let's not forget that some trainers get their uppers completely devoured! Consequently, we've given this pair's toebox durability a 3 out of 5, where 5 means a Dremel that doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

Turning our attention to the heel collar, we checked if our tool had any compatibility with it. After seeing the previous results, we did have our reservations. Just being honest, here!

But look at that!! Uhm... excuse us, Ozweego, since when have you become such a strong lover?!

We grabbed our durometer and pressed it against this pair's sole. At 85.5 H, the Ozweego got an average reading here. Good news is that this level of hardness usually means a good mix of durability and grip!

Outsole durability

We couldn't wait to see if the rubber outsole of this pair was as durable as we thought. And our Dremel was knock, knock, knocking on the adidas d96817 Ozweego's door.

After the 22-second-long drilling session was over, we lifted the tool to check the damage. With the help of a tread gauge, we measured the depth of the damage at 0.8 mm.

This score is pretty close to the average of our lab-tested trainers, but it's true that this pair has proved to be slightly stronger. This means that it will last longer.

When we first saw these kicks, we loved how adidas d96817 went for a non-sleek classic. Like, if for trail we compare its volume with the Superstar's, which is also iconic, we can easily notice their vibes are completely different.

Cushioning

Heel stack

We did say we loved walking in this, right? Well, with its durability, lightweightness, and now heel stack, the Ozweego will definitely be with you in every step of the way.

Our calliper measured its stack to be 32.2 mm at the heel, which is higher than average.

adidas d96817 Ozweego Heel stack

This contributes to its all-day wear capabilities, as the midsole is quite cushioned. Its underfoot support let us enjoy these pretty little companions for hours and hours, so we were comfortable AND stylish!

This plushness should mean the shoe is heavier, but as our scale said, not today! Nevertheless, it does equal a lower sense of the ground below. If you're looking for some grounded trainers, you'll definitely love the adidas d96817 Gazelle and its 23.3 mm stack height!

Trust us, this is something that you'll love as much as we do. When we were walking around or when we had to run to catch a bus (which happens more often than we'd like to admit), our feet felt comfortable and happy.

It's true that the Ozweego is inspired on running shoes, but please just keep it to occasional sprints to save you from "you're late" scoldings! If you're looking for something to run, run, run, run, runaway baby, as Bruno Mars would say, have a look at these adidas d96817 running shoes.

Midsole softness

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

At 26.8 HA, our durometer told us that this its midsole is softer than average. As this pair shines because it can keep you up and walking all day long, we already guessed it wouldn't be a brick underfoot.

The hardness of the outsole (the blue material you can see) makes it possible for the midsole to be soft without risking the shoe's durability.

Stability

Lateral stability test

Usually, the higher the platform, the more unstable a shoe becomes.

Or... not?

adidas d96817 just knows how to play the game, and even though the Ozweego has a quite high midsole compared to other worldwide famous trainers of this brand, zapatos de futbol adidas d96817 2018 pobga women adidas d96817 Samba, we did not feel unsafe wearing it.

adidas d96817 Ozweego 15

Its heel is quite high, and the tongue, lacing system, and materials of the upper contribute to how stable we felt wearing these baddies.

Torsional rigidity

In order to explain a little bit more why this shoe kept our feet in place, we performed our torsional rigidity test.

Grabbing it with both hands, we bent and wrung it with no mercy, but it wasn't easy!

Such levels of resistance made us give it a 4 out 5, where 5 is the most rigid. We think this is another very good strategy from Adidas. The midsole is soft, plush and comfortable; but the upper is more rigid and stable.

Remember we were saying that the bottom of this shoe has two different colours? We're gonna explain what that's all about now. So, sorry Amy Whinehouse, we're not adidas d96817 essentials 3 stripe hoodie black hair women, we're going back to blue!

Right, are you ready? Yeah? Let's go then!

As you can see, we have white parts and blue parts here. In the latter, we can see grooves and lines (which might occasionally trap a pebble or two). That's the outsole, which protects the foam from the abrasion of the city floors. The blue pods made sure the Ozweego's grip was top-notch, and the whole pattern provided us with excellent traction over a variety of surfaces, even the wet ones!

Toebox width at the widest part

The Ozweego's toebox follows the whole shoe's melody, which goes something like gimme more, gimme gimme more, just like Britney Spears' song!

Background

There are loads of adidas d96817 shoes that started by being specific for a sport and then move on to rule the streets. The adidas d96817 Samba is a good trail, as it started as an indoor football pair!

The Ozweego was originally released in 1996, and it was born as a running shoe. As years went by, this model evolved and adapted to the urban style, but it never forgot about its roots. Not only did it keep some of the running oriented technologies, zapatos de futbol adidas d96817 2018 pobga women EVA midsole with Adreprene and Adiprene+ for shock absorption and cushioning; but also its retro 90's style. To make it fit today's city fashion, the brand gave some futuristic details to its chunky self.

All in all, you can trust this old but new pal to keep your feet comfortable, stable, safe, and happy.
