A new issue of Footwearbiz magazine is now available. This time, we bring you a full examination of the work and materials that went into creating the adidas Adizero Adios Pro Evo 3, the so-called supershoe that helped Sabastian Sawe break the two-hour barrier in the 2026 London Marathon. In Materials, Manufacturing and Innovation, we discuss BASF’s new TPU for outsoles, the renewable upper material Ecco has begun using and the spectroscopy solution that Trinamix says can make footwear recycling more efficient. Business Of Footwear charts changes in luxury group Kering’s policy regarding footwear and leathergoods, and takes a look at the ongoing cowboy boots trend. We also report on efforts from the Turkish shoe sector to start sourcing steady volumes of leather from Brazil.
