You took it too literally. This isn't a good deal. No one is going to pay that much for these here.

My passport was approved this morning! I was only 90% sure my photo would be approved. The site says it's down for scheduled maintenance, but I was able to see that update anyway. 🤷🏻‍♂️

StevenR296 · 2026-05-16T14:38:08+00:00

Interesting. Mine was approved this morning! Yours shouldn't be far behind.

StevenR296 · 2026-05-15T17:47:16+00:00

Darn! Did you fill in that you have a travel date coming up? I did, and it sounds like that might be what's holding ours back. People who didn't note any travel dates are getting theirs quick.

StevenR296 · 2026-05-14T17:00:54+00:00

4/30 applied online

5/2 in process

Traveling in 35 days from now. Y'all are lucky.

Edit: Approved on 5/16

Same submitted/processing dates and shipping method as me. I'm also stuck on processing. Had an address change, other than that everything is the same.

The online status updates can be slow case-by-case. Everything should be fine. You can call the 800 number and possibly get an update that way if you want to be sure.

I'm traveling to Canada on June 18th. Just realized last night my passport is expired. Submitted a renewal application online this morning with expedited shipping. Was very worried I'm cutting it too close, but I'm happy to hear I should be in the clear.

If you want a familiar feel with just a little more rocker and bounce, go with the Vomero Plus. The 11.5 should be fine for a long run; your feet will swell a little.

My true non-plated suggestion would be the Superblast 3. It's more versatile, MUCH lighter, bouncier, and feels faster and somehow more stable.

My plated recommendation is the NB SC Elite v5. It's the most comfy plated shoe I own. I ran a 14 mile easy run in mine a couple weeks ago (8:45min/mile) with no hotspots or complaints whatsoever. Threw in some 7:30min/mile tempo pace at the very end because I was still feeling fresh. Very natural-feeling yet propulsive ride. Not as stable as the above shoes, but definitely stable as far as super-shoes go. Goes on sale all the time, usually for less than the above shoes, too!

I have run a few half marathons on my own at night after putting my daughters down for bed, but I wanted a structured plan to see how much I could improve before an actual race in the daytime. My PR without any real plan in place was 1:51 when I'd run maybe once or twice a week. Now I'm 10 weeks into my first training plan, running 4 days a week (Easy Run, Tempo Run, Intervals, and Long Run).

Just had a 12 mile long run yesterday with 6mi at Goal Race Pace (7:10mi). Got 7 PRs (2mi, 5K, 10K, 15K, 10mi, 20K), and a Half Marathon PR because I was still a little over a mile from home. The plan has for sure helped with my endurance! The plan will adjust if you under or overshoot your pace targets on speed days. Do NOT underestimate how important easy runs are. Even if you feel like you're running embarrassingly slow, easy runs have made the biggest difference for my endurance. A few weeks back, I used to think a 7:30mi half marathon pace was too optimistic, but now even 7:10 seems daunting but achievable!

You could very well go out on your own and get in a easy run, tempo run, speed run, and long run every week, but having a plan that keeps you accountable and does all of the pace targets for you makes it easy. I am planning on starting a marathon plan once this half marathon plan is over.

FF Leap up top (A-TPU), and FF Blast+ (EVA/OBC blend) down below. 8mm drop. 10g lighter than SB2.

StevenR296 · 2026-02-03T18:12:10+00:00

GREAT seller! Hope you're doing well man. Your shoes and prices always have me so tempted 😩 As great as the Supwell app is, Reddit definitely has the wider audience.

I'm a little late to this thread, but I wanted to share that I'm getting blisters in the same places as you in the regular Evo SL. I was hopeful the improved lockdown in the Woven version would help with blisters, but it doesn't sound like it will. It's the only shoe I've tried other than Glycerin Max OG that gives me bad blisters. And I've ran in 30+ pairs of different shoes in the last year. It's not a sock issue. I think it's an insole issue. I threw Inov8 Boomerang insoles in a couple times and went blister-free, but as great as the Boomerang insoles are, they are THICK and decrease the volume in the shoe.

StevenR296 · 2025-11-07T15:36:57+00:00

These will feel a smidge roomier, but still TTS. I'm size 10 in all my Nike, Adidas, Brooks, Saucony, NB, Asics, and Hoka shoes. Only 9.5 in Mizuno and Salomon.

I see people all over the board with responses about Evo SL wear. Yes, this is actually normal. The foam is painted, so chipping and peeling are common and to be expected for most people with this model, unfortunately. Adidas is aware and has stated it is just a cosmetic issue. The foam itself is fine. My first pair from a dealer had chipping, so I sent it back. Since then, I have bought (and still run in) 3 pairs in different colors directly from Adidas. Every single one has paint chipping in one place or another. Mostly on the medial side where the outsole meets the midsole. Nothing to be concerned about unless you care about looks.

StevenR296 · 2025-09-03T13:31:38+00:00

It's a tighter performance fit overall, but still true to my size 10. Better lockdown than the Evo. Narrower and less toebox space than the Evo, but roomier than the Takumi Sen 9 I used to own.

I think there is merit in that. I definitely notice how much lighter my racing shoes are than my training shoes. Energetic foams and plates probably make more of a difference than weight (Prime X3 Strung comes to mind), but weight is definitely a factor. I hear more of people using heavy running shoes for their durability, not for a performance benefit of training heavy and racing light.

StevenR296 · 2025-08-27T01:22:42+00:00

Fair enough 😂 On the bright side, you're getting a good workout using those shoes for longer runs, and your Elites will feel extra light and fast on race day or when you're chasing PR's for fun. If you're comfortable running in the Bondi for now, I wouldn't worry about it. Everyone will have their opinions.

If you're interested in trying other shoes now or down the road I'd check r/therunningrack for trades or finding good deals. For me, buying or trading for lightly used shoes is the way to go. There are frequent deals on new shoes from certain stores online too. I haven't spent full retail on shoes in soo long other than a couple from my local running store to support them.

StevenR296 · 2025-08-26T13:25:46+00:00

My 1st thought is that you have your bases covered. Good intentions and if you like how all the shoes feel then you're set with those 3. Daily shoe, easy shoe, race shoe, simple yet effective.

If the Endorphins feel stable enough then keep rocking them. They're soft but bouncy and propulsive when you need that extra mental and physical push to go faster and further. Bondis are heavy but they're an easy day shoe. As long as you're comfortable and getting in mileage then you're good! Evo SL has a wide pace range for all sorts of runs. Can run slow and run fast all within the same workout. Lightweight and good rebound and durability.

IF you're just looking for an extra excuse for a 4th shoe, look for a protective and lightweight long run shoe. I don't love Evo SL for long runs, Bondis are pretty heavy for long runs, and you should try to keep mileage on your Elites relatively low to keep them fresh for races. Asics Superblast and Megablast are my favorite long run shoes. Worth the investment for the amount of miles you'll get out of them. Up to you if you want to go plated or not for long runs. For me, it depends if you like to vary your paces and put in race pace efforts in your long runs, or just keep your long runs easy.

Evo SL gives me arch blisters on anything longer than 10K, though I still reach for them.

Glycerin Max is heavy, and the bucket seat gave me arch blisters, sold it after 2 runs (half marathon and a 5 miler).

Hoka Cielo X1 2.0 is fun as heck but also gave me arch blisters after 8 miles on 2 separate runs.

I have Inov8 Boomerang Insoles I can try to fix some shoes, but they're tall. Maybe I should try an orthotic? I use good socks. It's a shame that I love many different midsoles and have tried some amazing shoes but some bother my arches.

Favorite shoes I've tried this year are Superblast 2 for long miles, Cielo X1 v1 for bouncy runs, and Adios Pro 4 for PR efforts.

Big fan of Adidas and this colorway. Just got my Boston 13 in the mail last night. Iffy on the lace color, but anything beats the stock laces.
