If your play serious tennis, you know about the adidas Barricade.
For 25 years, the adidas Barricade has set the standard for durability and stability on the tennis court. Worn by legends and trusted by players at every level, it’s a shoe that truly changed the game. To honor its legacy, adidas has released a special-edition Barricade to commemorate the shoe's silver anniversary.
Celebrating 25 years of one of the most supportive, stable & high performing tennis shoes, the adidas Barricade 13 remains the ultimate option for players craving durability and stability. Offering better step-in comfort than any of the previous versions, this 2024 evolution of the iconic court shoes has been updated to hold your feet in a secure, yet comfortable way with the geo-fit heel pods and improved soft, stretchable tongue. You will love the feel underfoot as the Repetitor + midsole offers firmer foam in the forefoot for lateral stability and lighter, softer foam in heel for shock absorption; plus there is recycled BOOST material in high wear areas. Pair all of that with an incredibly durable rubber compound backed by a Tennis Warehouse 6-month durability outsole guarantee and players looking for the most durable, yet high performing tennis shoe may have just found their best match!
Upper: Supportive upper materials made from recycled materials with geo fit heel pods for a comfortable glove-like fit; built-in asymmetric lacing for a secure lockdown; hidden laces on medial side; neoprene tongue, improved fit & feel for no break-in time
Midsole: Full length dual density Repetitor + midsole with firmer foam in forefoot for lateral stability and lighter, softer foam in heel for shock absorption; recycled BOOST material in high wear areas
Outsole: ADIWEAR rubber compound with a unique split herringbone on the outsole assists athletes with sliding for traction and durability. This shoe features a Tennis Warehouse six month outsole durability guarantee.
