Our Verdict

adidas Adizero Adios Pro 3

adidas Adizero Evo SL

The adidas Adizero Evo SL and the adidas Adizero Adios Pro 3 offer surprisingly similar performance. The Evo SL delivers comparable cushioning and energy return, making it an exceptional value option for those looking for race-ready features and true versatility. However, for peak racing performance, the Adios Pro 3 holds a slight edge thanks to its marginally lighter weight and full-length carbon fiber rods, enhancing efficiency.
