Review: Adidas AdiPure Trainer Toe Shoes
I was recently given the opportunity to try out the new Adidas AdiPure Trainer Toe Shoes and give my opinion on what I thought of them. So, I figured why not give it a go.

I pulled the shoes out of the cloth bag that they came in and was caught off guard by their red color and unusual toe design. I immediately took off my socks and slid the shoes on to my bare feet.

This week Adidas unveiled its new natural running shoe collection, a first for the company, with the release of the adipure Motion for beginners to go anaturale, the adipure Gazelle for intermediate runners, and the adipure Adapt for advanced natural guns. The line of shoes is engineered to promote pure and natural movement to help runners safely and gradually improve their speed, strength and performance through minimalist running.

Adidas Sprints to Barefoot Training Shoe for the Gym
While we hope not to see a bear market on Wall Street, the barefoot training shoe market is off and running. Adidas announced this week the launch of its new adipure Trainer, the first barefoot training shoe designed specifically for the gym. This shoe promotes pure and natural movement that can help strengthen muscles, build balance and promote dexterity.
“A lot of engineering went into making your foot a high performance machine,” said Mark Verstegen, founder of Athletes’ Performance. “To achieve your full potential during a workout, focus on how your foot interacts with the ground in the same way you think about how your hand interacts with a ball or a bat. Using your foot’s natural power and movement will help you strengthen muscles you never knew you had in your feet, lower legs and throughout your core.” Video after the jump
