adidas ZX 700 (1985)

Masterfully crafted for long distances. The adidas ZX 700 arrived at the forefront of the amateur running scene with next-level high-mileage running technology. A biomechanical support system reduced foot roll, a foam and nylon heel unit reduced weight, and aerated polyester mesh added excellent ventilation.

Toe and heel reflective inserts aligned with the fashion of the times, as reflective styles rose to prominence for both added safety and as a visual marker of advanced, professional-level tech.
