Detailed Review
The adidas 4DFWD Pulse Shoes stand out due to their revolutionary 4D printing technology applied to the midsole. This not only offers an adaptive fit but also helps absorb impact effectively, reducing strain on your joints when running or jumping.
Many users appreciate the responsive feel when pushing off the ground, which allows for a more efficient stride. Additionally, the lace closure system is reliable, ensuring that your foot stays secured throughout various movements, whether in training or casual outings.
The rubber sole provides excellent traction on multiple surfaces, further enhancing their versatility. However, it’s worth noting that some users found that the shoes might need a few wears to fully conform to the shape of their feet, highlighting the potential for a break-in period.
In terms of aesthetics, the white design of these shoes is both modern and sleek, appealing to those who appreciate stylish athletic footwear. However, potential buyers should consider their maintenance, as white shoes can stain easily.

User Reviews
The shoe fits perfectly and it is very comfortable. I was looking for a shoe that I can wear for long hours of walking, that also looks good. I'm happy with my purchase!
My son really likes the shoes, he got compliments at high school. Some say the heal cushioning looks like Ramen noodles.
They are beautiful and very comfortable. Sadly it seems that the morning is not of good quality and was damaged in the first week of use.
I have been a HUGE fan of Adidas' 4D shoes since the moment I saw them. I saved up, and bought a pair and loved them as much as I expected I would. Then I got a pair of Fusio 4D's and, well, let's just say I came away disappointed and wished I had been given the chance to try them on first. I can say without any question whatsoever that they are the only pair of shoes I have ever owned by Adidas that I felt were downright uncomfortable.My next pair of shoes were going to be the 4D FWD's, but after my unfortunate experience with the Fusio's, I took a chance and got a pair of Kizik shoes (the kind you never have to bend down to put on, they are intended to just slip on without needing to tie each and every time). While their design is nowhere as forward and innovative, they DO work and are crazy comfortable to wear. I finally decided to take another chance with Adidas and once again, I'm glad I did.The 4D FWD look just plain cool. Not sure how else to describe it. They are unique among all the shoes out there with their crazy distinct 4D webbing and at least for ME, I find that flat-out sweet. These fit well and are good for cushioning as well. I have to admit though, they aren't as all-out comfortable as my Kizik's, which very well may be the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned...but don't let that deter you from checking these out.They are really white though. So if you like to keep your shoes clean and get upset whenever you look down and see a new scuff that you can't quite recall how it got there, I'd go with a different color...with 4D shoes, you can only do so much to clean the webbing, too. The intricate way the rubber is webbed makes it essentially impossible to clean all but the very outermost layer. Dirt that makes it inside is there to say unfortunately. Also, I probably don't have to say this, but I will anyway: be careful wearing these on loose dirt and sand. It'll get trapped inside that webbing and stay there for a crazy long time.So in short, if you're like me and love the 4D look, these are just fantastic. Just know what you're getting into before you buy so you won't be caught unaware.
They look nice but get dirty very quickly because of the material and are very hard to clean
Made with performance materials and are comfortable... But.........there narrow and get 1 size bigger for sure!
