3D Torsion

3D Torsion is a device created by the Adidas brand in which the shoe's construction returns to a stable base after allowing the foot to move as it normally would during the gait cycle. This device is important because it encourages the natural movement of the foot while stabilizing the gait. A shoe can cause the foot to land at an unpleasant angle if it is too restricting. 3D Torsion is unique in the fact that it causes the shoe's construction to return to a stable or neutral base on each impact. This shoe is great for high impact sports such as running and basketball because it enables the foot to move freely while reducing the risk of injury.
