Is the SL20 stiffer and firmer?<br />I'm running with the Adidas Adios 3. I love the lightweight, the nimble, the fit and the ground feeling of these shoes.<br />But after 1000kms, it's time to replace it.<br />i hesitate between the Adios 5 (i didn't like the fit of the Adios 4) and the SL20.<br />How do you think? Thanks!<br />Best.<br />Thierryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08267307063726858964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10529476.post-78467574638025344172020-04-30T18:20:30.035-06:002020-04-30T18:20:30.035-06:00Hi, I am looking for a tempo shoe that can also be...Hi, I am looking for a tempo shoe that can also be used for 5 and 10km races, how does the SL20 compare to the Adios5 and Evoride?Jacksonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10529476.post-61509660760993740552020-04-30T12:37:03.397-06:002020-04-30T12:37:03.397-06:00Thanks, I'm really leaning towards the acceler...Thanks, I'm really leaning towards the accelerate.

The 25/14 you see may not include sockliner? If you have trained in Tempo I think you would find more forefoot cushion in SL20 but firmer overall.

I wonder if the SL20 has enough cushion for that. Especially as I noticed that the Adidas website is claiming stack heights of only 24/14 which is a bit less than you have noted. <br /><br />Thanks for the review. <br /><br />MikeMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13764428257560053716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10529476.post-36765968404480491052020-02-26T00:13:54.495-07:002020-02-26T00:13:54.495-07:00Perhaps the Nike Gravity or Rival Fly may be even ...Perhaps the Nike Gravity or Rival Fly may be even closer to the Zoom Elite 9...?Jeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04989078206891917263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10529476.post-36290858160541413332020-02-25T08:38:22.771-07:002020-02-25T08:38:22.771-07:00It is closer to Elite than Razor is.
