While the NFL Combine is going on in Indianapolis this weekend, one pair of the adidas adizero 5-Star 40 Cleat made its way to Sneaker Report today.
At 4.6 ounces, the cleat, which is a hybrid model of the adizero Prime track spike and the adizero 5-Star 3.0 football cleat, is designed for reaching the top speeds required of NFL Draft prospects. The 5-Star 40 uses a seamless SprintWeb upper with a laminate composite to lock the foot in place. The shoe's sprint studs promote an aggressive toe-off that is crucial in running combine drills like the 40-yard dash.
Look for the adizero 5-Star 40 this weekend at the NFL combine, where adidas will be awarding $100K to the prospect who records the fastest 40-yard dash time wearing the cleats.
