Stable, durable & lighter than older Barricades
The adidas Barricade is back! Coming from a long history of being the most stable and durable shoe on the market, this 12th version (or 2021 edition) is designed to carry on the legacy of the most successful adidas tennis franchise. A key feature carried on from previous Barricades is the Torsion System, which creates a very stable ride and will hold up to the most aggressive changes of direction. This update features an asymmetric hidden lacing system, which provides secure lockdown and keeps the laces protected on the medial side for hard court sliders. The comfort has been enhanced with foam pods in the heel region for step-in comfort, as well as the BOUNCE 2.0 full midsole for those players putting in the long hours on court. This shoe features Primegreen, a series of high-performance recycled materials, where 50% of the upper material is recycled content.
- Upper: One-piece textile upper material, with an asymmetric lacing system, neoprene tongue, and hidden laces on the medial side. Medial side features tough RPU to protect from foot drag, and toe-cap equipped with Adituff for added durability. Primegreen - 50% of the upper is recycled content.
- Midsole: Full length BOUNCE 2.0 midsole, with Torsion System TPU midfoot shank to maximize lateral stability.
- Outsole: New ADIWEAR rubber compound for high wear durability. Herringbone Reload tread design for enhanced abrasion resistance in high wear areas, and lateral edge caters to hard court sliding.
- Color: Black / Black / White

Previous Feedback
Comments: I ended up returning the pair of adidas Barricades I had. After playing in them twice, I decided there were too many things that could go wrong. I have a pretty narrow foot and the tongue would slip and get in bunches. The laces are pretty thin for those trying to really lock them down. I believe adidas made a big mistake using elastic straps for their lacing eyelets - you just cannot get these shoes to wrap around your foot as they should. The Bounce in the back of the foot was super cushioned, but moving around, the heel is extremely bulky. Forefoot is low to the ground for good court feel, but didn't really feel any cushion. Disappointed.

Comments: Barricade is back! And in a big way. This is the most plush Barricade I can remember right from the first moment you put it on. You get a locked in feel, but the shoe is still light and speedy. Stability is great too, and the boost material in the heel makes the shoe well-cushioned. Maybe not as low as the Nike Vapor Pro, but better cushioning and support without being much higher at all. I have been wearing Nike for three years since the Barricade line disappeared and I am now switching back. This shoe is right up there with the Asics Gel Resolution 8's. I actually like this Barricade better. Well done, Adidas. Side note: I have slightly wider feet, and the fit is great!
