Good Adidas Shoes (aside from Barricades)

[devilish_duke]

I'm a BII afficionado and will be for quite a while. However, I was wondering how some of their other shoes perform. A long time ago I wore Superstar 2Gs to the tennis court and they performed well from what I remember. How are the climacools, a3 accelerates, tirands, torsions, etc? Anybody have any experience with 'em? Thanks.

I have a pair of CC Ultimate II's and a pair of CC Feathers (the ones just before the current model) and they seem to be good; while they are not quite as cushioned as the Barricades, they are still reasonably comfortable. They also breath very well (nice in hot weather), and are lightweight. Soles are not as durable as the Barricades. The Feathers have a nice tread for playing on clay and are pretty comfy, but I would say that if you put in a lot of hours on the court (more than 2-3 hrs/ day) I would probably stick with Barricades.
