Adidas Adizero Prime X3 Strung Powder plum black pink

Purple has historically been absent from serious racing shoes. The Adidas Adizero Prime X3 Strung Powder plum black pink changes that. Powder Plum on Adidas' max-stack racing platform — a colorway that challenges the convention that competition colors must be neutral or neon.

This is the Prime X3 Strung for runners who race on their own terms. Triple carbon and 50 mm Lightstrike Pro, in the colorway that proves speed has no dress code.

Triple Carbon + 50 mm Lightstrike Pro: Maximum Stack Racing

The Prime X3 Strung stacks three carbon fiber layers — ENERGYRODS EVO — over 50 mm of Lightstrike Pro PEBA foam, creating the most propulsive platform in the Adidas lineup. Each carbon layer contributes to a progressive stiffness that redirects energy forward with a force that increases with running speed. The STRUNG upper is individually placed for a precise, adaptive fit.

STRUNG upper: precision-engineered adaptive fit. 243 g. 6 mm drop. 50 mm heel stack. The most extreme marathon racing platform Adidas has built — reserved for race day.

Who it's for

For experienced marathon runners ready for maximum stack performance. Best for specialists who train for the Prime X3's propulsion geometry.
