“From its hybrid Lightstrike midsole to the waterproof upper and engineered six-cleat Traxion outsole, adidas ZG23 offers all-day comfort and a secure, grounded feel.

“The six-cleat Thintech Traxion outsole provides a close-to-the-ground feel with the enhanced grip of a secondary lug design that focuses traction exactly where you need it for better transfer, balance and stability for consistent ball strike and increased power.

“The midsole combines the maximum energy return of Lightstrike Pro with the lightweight, explosive feel of Lightstrike.”
