Cushioning Level

- 
Barefoot0-13mm. The Shoe generally does not have a midsole and feels like there is no cushioning. This shoe is all about feeling the ground underfoot. 
- 
Minimal14-18mm. The shoe has a thin midsole that allows for a natural running experience. Racing shoes and minimalist shoes are common here. These shoes offer a feeling of being connected to the road or trail. 
- 
Low19-23mm. The shoe has a slightly cushioned feel and may feature added cushioning technologies. Performance training shoes and some trail shoes are common here. These offer protection during footstrike but prioritize a lightweight, grounded experience.

- 
StabilityStability shoes are a great option for those who overpronate or need added support. These shoes help to limit the inward rolling motion of the ankle while running or walking and assist in guiding the foot straight through the gait cycle. 
Product Details:
Seen on the feet of Tom Evans when he won the 2023 Western States 100, the adidas Terrex Speed Ultra is an innovative trail racing shoe that delivers everything needed for ultimate performance on race day.
The midsole features Lightstrike Pro Foam, which not only provides runners with a lightweight and highly responsive experience but also ensures protection over the long miles of an ultramarathon. To enhance energy return with each step, adidas incorporates TPE energy rods in the midsole. These rods help to propel the runner forward while adapting to uneven terrain. Meanwhile, the shoe's aggressive rocker geometry ensures efficient heel-toe transitions that help make running further feel easier.
The outsole is crafted from Continental Rubber and boasts a streamlined design that reduces weight without compromising exceptional grip and traction on challenging terrain. The shoe is finished off with an engineered mesh upper that offers a breathable and secure fit while remaining incredibly lightweight.
Combining a lightweight design with high-performance cushioning, the adidas Terrex Agravic Speed Ultra is a plated trail racing shoe that delivers a remarkably responsive ride for ultramarathons and trail races, especially those that require more speed.
