Adidas Outdoor and Nina Williams Will Help You Climb to New Heights

"My Adidas walk through concert doors, and roam all over coliseum floors." My adidas Outdoor sneakers*, on the other foot, have helped me traverse through the flora and fauna in El Yunque National Forest in Puerto Rico; hike to the steep (almost) summit of Mount Beacon in Beacon, New York; and most recently gave me the stamina to complete a two-hour climb up and down Camelback Mountain in Phoenix, Arizona. Whew, that was a doozy!

Believe me, I couldn't have done any of these hikes without my trusty adidas Terrex Tracerocker W, trail shoes for fast and light hiking.  The sneaker features include:

  • Mesh and synthetic materials in upper for light weight and outdoor durability
  • Comfortable textile lining
  • Lightweight EVA midsole for long-term cushioning
  • TRAXION™ outsole for optimal grip in all directions
  • Superhigh-traction rubber outsole for optimal grip
