adidas honors Grete Waitz



Thanks adidas, for honoring Grete Waitz, an amazing marathoner who passed away this past Spring. In her heyday she won 9 New York Marathons, more than any other runner in history.



Now adidas is paying tribute to her by creating shoes in Norway-inspired colors (the one above patterned with her marathon times) and donating 100% of the profits to her AKTIV Against Cancer foundation.






Footwear will be sold at adidas' marathon booth and sport performance store in SoHo. adizero Adios 2 ($115), adizero Boston 3 ($110) and Supernova Glide 4 ($115)
