New Adidas Fencing Shoe

Disgusting.

Adidas apparently is launching a new fencing shoe, to replace the adistar and dartanagn II.

They call it the Adidas Stabil-Escrime.

It won't be a sloppy shoe. Because of the inventiveness of competitors (including LP) Adidas has obviously decided they need to secure a -- foothold -- by reinventing fencing shoes. It will be a serious candidate.

Stabil - stable - not sloppy - pun.

Adidas won't make a slack (good Aussie word) shoe, given the criticisms they have received for Adistar, and the increasing competitiveness of marketers like Leon Paul.

er does this help you blue?

I have the new Adistars and they’re like fencing in street shoes, the material they’re made from is so stiff, especially the toe which has no padding inside and is hard rubber. I’ve managed to break them in a bit and they’re wearable but not comfortable. The sole is excellent though, they should just put this sole on the Equipment upper and it would be perfect. I give the appearance a thumbs-up.
