Narrow Adidas?

Looking for a narrow fitting Adidas shoe. Have tried the assorted Barricades with mixed success. I have a very flat foot and need support so found the Barricade II too soft in the forefoot. Other models, especially the new V have been too wide. Currently wearing the Accelerator which has a nice fit but too firm for hard court use. Any thoughts/comments would be much appreciated.
 
ClimaCool Boom IIs are EXTREMELY narrow. I think you'll like that. My bro doesn't though. He's wearing that shoe half a size larger than his normal shoe size and still complains that it's too narrow.

Try the Barricade 1. Narrow. GREAT shoe. I don't like the tongue (too narrow) but if you have a narrow foot you should be fine. Tons of support.

TW has a page of shoes (including Adidas) for narrow feet.

I have flat feet too. I use Sof Sole orthotics to control my over-pronation. I wear Nike Cages (I's and II's). I found the Barricades a little clunky and heavy.

If u have falat feet and a narow foot dont go with adidas. I bassically have the same foot very flat and narrow i tried a pair of the CC feathers the arch was way to high and i could not play in them. Now imusing the cages and they are perfect if i was you i would get the cages( the cage 2 has a bit of a bigger arch but not that much bigger) also if you want a little more support go with the vapor 5s.

I have "skis" like yours and have been particularly impressed and satisfied with the Adidas Response Plus 3's. They have proven quite durable on hard court, as well.

Thanks for all the helpful suggestions. I now have a good hunting list. It's really a bummer that most shoes come in D width as standard. For those of us that are narrow that's not always going to work.

Adidas shoes are usually for wide feet. Nike are for narrow feet which is why i can't play with them. The Feathers are more narrow than the Barricades so you can try those.

I too have a narrow foot. I've only been able to fit into the Barricade II's & IV's. The III's were TOO wide. Haven't gotten my hands on the V's yet. The Feathers also run narrow.
