Ok, I ordered these right after watching this review. This shoe is the real deal: I also have the Kjerag, and the Speed Trail beats it. First things first: Size down 1/2size from the previous version or your normal size. US12.5@10oz 1/2oz more than kjerag, so very light. More toebox room than the kjerag, not overly narrow across the metatarsals as the kjerag is. More and softer cushion, with a rocker that helps forward propulsion and makes it more 'fun' to run in than the kjerag. 8mm drop vs 6, I'd prefer 6mm for steep downhills. Same ungusseted tongue (very unhappy about this!) as kjerag, but smaller gaps in ankle collar & upper to let rocks in. Superior laces that don't come undone. The TST is happier on smooth to moderate trails, but I did 3hours on fairly rocky singletrack yesterday with no serious complaints, no toe-banging or underfoot pains. Do use heel-lock to keep the heel stable. $40 cheaper than the kjerag!
Glad you like them. Hope other viewers read your detailed info above 👍
Sounds like a decent shoe Tom. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on them mate. 😎🤘
Yes to this by the way. I didn't fancy the ultra version. Don't like plates. Never got on with them. I've been undecided on this or the nnormal kjerrag. Thanks for posting this
Thanks for the message, the Kjerag looks too narrow for my feet with lower stack height for more ground feel, nice and lightweight. Does have good reviews. I feel the Agravic Speed will have a small break in period for midsole and upper.
Thanks! Great review, might have to get these now. 🥳🔥🙌 I already have the Speed Ultra.
Thanks, they are approx 30g lighter per shoe than the ‘ultras’ so good for the shorter distances. I got mine for around £125 from Runner Inn but their website prices have changed last time I checked.
lol the foam stacks on the trail shoes are pretty amusing.
🤣🤣🤣
Yep, the marathon road shoe tech bridging over into trails. Just a matter of time.
I really enjoyed the previous Speed Ultra with the boost-light strike combo. These could replace them soon. These new ones seem to have much more rocker. How was stability?
Yep, I also have a pair of the original ones with boost in heel. I would say the new Agravic Speeds are even more stable with a wider base and better thicker midsole.
Would you say the upper front part is "waterproof" or enough to keep dry feet on a rainy run?? Thanks for the video
Not at all. These shoes embrace the water coming in so it can drain out fast and aid breathability when hot. There are the basic overlays but above this side/top is the open abrasion resistant mesh.
Todays first run

Why did you sent back the Ultra?
The original pair I had was my usual UK9 but they size up large so had to send back for an 8.5 but was then out of stock. Eventually got the UK8.5 from another supplier.
@@tomharvey-run thank you, I just saw in the other video. Do you think the size is similar to the Boston 12, do you have them too?
I don’t have the Bostons, but all other Adidas shoes I have had have been true to size UK9 except for the Agravic Speed Ultras that came up half a size large and needed to go down to 8.5.
