Adida's adiStar Control shoes
« on: April 17, 2008, 05:08:30 am »

I was checking out my Facebook page, and I saw a sponsored ad for adiStar Control 5, a pair of running shoes made by Adidas.  Although it has nothing to do with the game or anything Science Fiction, I thought it was a funny coincidence.

There's a link to the shoes at http://www.shopadidas.ca/catalogservlet?categoryId=2277633&productId=336029

They're expensive too! Sad

How many shoes are there in the adiStar Control series? Are there actually five or was the 5 just stuck into the title to sound cool?
I'd buy an "adiStar Control 2" shoe if it had little pictures of Urquan or Spathi or Mycon printed onto it. I wouldn't wear it, I'd just keep it around as a novelty.

Hahaha...  As long as you don't get the adiStar Control 3 shoes; it looks horrible, uncomfortable, looks like a pair of budget-priced puppets, and no colors other than bland colors mixed with grey and black. Tongue

What I'm amazed by was the vast differences between adiStar Control and adiStar Control 2 shoes. The first ones were cross trainers. As good as the second ones were I still prefer the originals.
