Adidas Terrex Trail Cross shoes


Draw up a list of potential new riding shoes and Adidas might not be at the top. But their Terrex Trail Cross shoes, despite their trainer looks, are a serious trail bike proposition from the German brand.

A light and abrasion resistant upper is matched to a sticky Stealth rubber sole, something you usually only see on Five Ten shoes. That, fact fans, is because Adidas actually owns Five Ten.

The shoe is aimed at the European hike-a-bike scene, with specific areas of the sole designed for pushing and pedaling, but if the sole is as good as regular Five Ten soles, we reckon these could be top trail trainers for flat pedals, so long as you don’t mind their looks.

PRICE 142$
