Who should NOT buy

As a low-cut shoe, the Swift R3 GTX is not perfect for deep puddles and river crossings. If you foresee the water overflowing the shoe's low collar, it's better to go with the Salomon Outpulse Mid GTX.

If on the other hand, you mostly hike in warm and dry weather, the waterproof GTX lining of the shoe will only make your feet hot and sweaty. To avoid overpaying for something you don't need, we recommend the non-waterproof Salomon X Ultra 4 instead.

Breathability

Having tested a myriad of GTX cargo shoes in our lab, we have come to expect zero breathability from this type of footwear. However, the Adidas nmd racer sizing for women boots girls black busted that myth in a mere second!

Performing our smoke-pumping test on this Adidas shoe, we were quite surprised with the amount of smoke passing through its tongue.

adidas lite runner af6601 2017 release form print adidas yeezy carts for women sale shoes 2016. However, it is notably more breathable than its GTX counterparts. On a scale from 1 to 5, where 5 is the most breathable, we rated it as 2. Most Gore-Tex shoes only get 1.

But don't get us wrong. This shoe is still 100% watertight. In our transparency check below, it is clear that there are no perforations in the shoe's upper.

What's more, our microscope helps to show you how incredibly dense the shoe's material is.

Durability

Toebox durability

In order to keep a GTX shoe's waterproofing intact, it must be protected from punctures and tears. And as our durability test shows, you have to be extra careful with the Adidas nmd racer sizing for women boots girls black.

Applying our Dremel to the shoe's upper textile for 12 seconds at a speed of 5K RPM resulted in a small yet critical puncture. This made us lower the toebox durability rating for this Adidas shoe to 2 out of 5.

Another potentially frail area in cargo shoes is the heel padding. But not for the Terrex Swift R3!

The shoe's heel collar lining stood up to our 4 seconds of drilling very well. The barely noticeable scratch convinced us to rate the shoe's heel padding durability as 4 out of 5.

Outsole hardness

Like any other Adidas Terrex shoe, the Swift R3 GTX uses Continental rubber for its outsole. Having a reputation as a hard-wearing compound, it did not disappoint.

Measuring the rubber hardness with our durometer, we got a measurement of 85.9 HC. This is considered average for a cargo shoe outsole and is a good sign of long-term durability.

Outsole durability

Of course, we turned to our Dremel to test the outsole's abrasion resistance. Drilling it unapologetically for 22 seconds at the speed of 10K RPM, we were pleasantly surprised.

According to the tread gauge, the dent was only 0.9 mm deep. This is a little less than the average and earns this Adidas shoe bonus points for durability.

Weight

Tipping the scale at 14.4 oz (408g), the Adidas nmd racer sizing for women boots girls black sits very close to the average of adidas cf1203 women 2017 (14.6 oz/414g). This is actually pretty light unaccustomed how much protection is packed into this Adidas hiker.

Cushioning

Heel stack

Looking at the bottom of the shoe, we saw an imprinted writing: "STACK 15/25 MM." To be honest, this left us quite perplexed because we actually measured the shoe's heel stack height at a whopping 36.6 mm!

adidas terrex swift r 3 gtx heel stack 20415510 720

Either way, based on our caliper measurement, there is more than 3.5 cm of protection between your heel and the ground! This is one of the tallest cargo platforms we've seen in our lab.

This makes the Adidas nmd racer sizing for women boots girls black one of the best options for rocky trails with sharp rocks and other technical terrain.

Forefoot stack

In the forefoot, the midsole thickness becomes drastically smaller. With a caliper measurement of 20.7 mm, the forefoot stack of this Adidas shoe is about the same as the average but much taller than the officially stated 15 mm.

Drop

This leaves us with a significant heel-to-toe drop of 15.9 mm! A few millimeters taller than the average, it raises the heel notably higher above the toes.

This makes landings extra cushioned and protected while letting the forefoot bend more easily and feel the ground better for stability.

Midsole softness

Note: a low durometer measurement equals a soft material, whereas a high measurement means it's firm.

What's really nice about this Adidas Terrex shoe is that despite its burly and stiff construction, its cushioning happens to be not as firm as in most other cargo shoes.

Using a durometer, we measured the shoe's foam softness at 26 HA. This makes the Swift R3 GTX 18% softer than the average!

Difference in midsole softness in cold

Given that this Adidas shoe is intended for colder climates, it is nice to know that its cushioning doesn't turn into a rock in low temperatures.

Having kept the shoe in the freezer for 20 minutes, we repeated the durometer measurement. At 30.5 HA, the foam only got as firm as most other cargo shoes are at room temperature.

Compared to other cargo shoes in our lab, the Adidas nmd racer sizing for women boots girls black firmed up by 17.3% which is notably less than the average difference.

Insole thickness

The insole of this shoe has a standard amount of padding. Using a caliper to measure its thickness in the heel, we got 4.9 mm. This is exactly the same as the average.

What's noteworthy about this insole is its raised sidewalls which create a cup-like carrier for the foot.

Stability

Lateral stability test

Stability is truly phenomenal in the Adidas nmd racer sizing for women boots girls black. In spite of its low-cut collar, the shoe actually feels a lot like a cargo boot!

Compared to other shoes in its weight category, this Adidas shoe made us feel incredibly surefooted on tricky trails involving unpredictable rocks, roots, and other debris.

adidas terrex swift r 3 gtx stability 20415543 720

We also found that the Pro-Moderator trace (embedded into the sole on both sides) is an excellent foot stabilizer. It worked very effectively to prevent side-to-side movements of the foot which made our legs less fatigued at the end of the day.

Torsional rigidity

The shoe's exceptionally rigid build is the primary reason behind its stability. It is nearly impossible to twist the shoe and you have to put A LOT of effort into it.

Thus, we rated the torsional rigidity of the Adidas nmd racer sizing for women boots girls black with the highest score of 5 out of 5.

Heel counter stiffness

Contributing to secure heel hold is the shoe's stiff heel counter. On a 1-5 scale where 5 is the stiffest, we rated it as 4.

This helps to significantly minimize the wobbling of the heel and ankle.

The platform of this Adidas shoe is wide enough to provide plenty of landing surface.

In the widest part of the forefoot, we measured the sole at 114.5 mm. Thanks to the lateral outrigger, this is a few millimeters wider than average.

Flexibility

Stiffness

From our experience, the Adidas nmd racer sizing for women boots girls black definitely feels on the stiff side. However, our lab test shows that it is not stiffer than the average.

According to our force gauge, it takes 34.1N to bend the shoe to a 90-degree angle. Just about the same as the average.

But because of the shoe's burly design and protective overlays, it actually feels rather stiff on the trail.

Grip / Traction

Lug depth

The writing at the bottom of the shoe reads: "LUGS 4.5 MM." Indeed, we found this to be true based on our own caliper measurement.

Size and fit

Toebox width at the widest part

Trying the shoe in our regular US size 9, we found that it runs larger and even a bit wider than expected.

In the widest part of the toebox, for example, we got a caliper measurement of 102.7 mm. This is nearly 4 mm wider than average!

However, there is also more space in front of the toes. This made the shoe less than ideal for descending as our toes would bump into the shoe's pretty hard toe bumper (but from the inside). Thus, we recommend going at least half a size smaller than your regular cargo shoe size.

Comfort

Tongue padding

The tongue packs a pretty standard amount of padding for a cargo shoe. Measuring it with a caliper, we got 10.9 mm. This was more than enough to keep us warm, comfortable, and free from the lace pressure.

If you prefer to wear a custom insert in place of the default one, you have that option in the Swift R3 GTX.

Break-in period

Because of the shoe's overall stiff build, it takes more than one hike to fully break in the shoe. It also doesn't feel as comfy as some of the other lightweight speed-oriented hikers.
