Last fall, I got the opportunity to experience Lake Tahoe for the first time. I loved the downtown areas with the mountain town vibe. I loved the fine rock beach on the banks of the lake. I tried yoga for the first time and figured out that I was both open to it and terrible at it. But, above all, the hiking around the famous lake is the draw, and I got to get my first trial of the Adidas TERREX Freehiker. The hiking functionality, combined with the stylistic aspects Adidas has always been known for, was a great experience. Now, the iconic shoe brand drops the third iteration, deepening the collection even further.
Our ambition with the Freehiker 3 was to double down on what made this franchise iconic from the start: exceptional comfort for long days on rolling terrain. Tom Louage, Sr. Director Product, Adidas.
Built for the wild, styled for the street
What sets this drop from the rest of the industry is the street style of the shoe that would look great with jeans, shorts, or chinos as you run errands, explore the city, or have a day out, along with the inclusion of what makes this franchise the peak of hiking technology. Hyperboost cushioning returns energy absorbed to lengthen the long-distance comfort. Dreamstrike+ midsoles and Continental rubber outsoles create the perfect framework for all terrains. GORE-TEX Waterproof protection ensures the hike won’t be cancelled due to inclement weather.
“With this latest update,” says Louage, “we have made the shoe significantly lighter while maintaining the stability hikers rely on. By integrating our new Hyperboost Pro midsole, inspired by our leading running innovations, we bring a new level of cushioning and energy return to the outdoors, all at a more accessible price point”
The Adidas TERREX Freehiker 3 is now available for your upcoming summer adventures.
