Updates to Adidas Gymbreaker Bounce

  • The Adidas Gymbreaker Bounce uses the Bounce midsole. It is claimed to deliver more spring to an athlete’s step and is firmer than the Boost foam.
  • This shoe features a bootie-like design. Together with floating mesh panels, the entire upper aims to deliver a snug fit.
  • It uses a non-marking rubber outsole with a pivot disc at the ball area of the foot. The goal of this round structure is to make it easier for the wearer to perform twists and turns, preventing injury or strain to the knee.

Adidas Gymbreaker Bounce size and fit

The Gymbreaker Bounce is only available in women’s sizes. It is true to size, but consumers are advised to try it in person to get a secure and comfortable fit. The width of this shoe is B - Medium. The shoe also features a bootie construction which makes the opening tighter compared to shoes that have detached tongues.

Outsole

The Gymbreaker Bounce employs an outsole unit that is designed to be hard-wearing, flexible and traction-ready. The rubber used in this model is non-marking, which means that it’s designed not to leave scuff marks on the floor. It extends to the front of the shoe to protect the toes during workouts.

The outsole has a pivot disc that’s centered on the ball of the foot. It aims to ease the turning motion of various exercises.

The entire bottom has flex grooves that compensate for the thick foam. The small trenches allow for multidirectional movement and better flexibility for the whole sole.

Midsole

This training shoe from Adidas utilizes the renowned Bounce technology. This ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) foam has been engineered to be springy and responsive. It aims to deliver an energized step and a comfortable underfoot experience. At the same time, Bounce has a certain level of firmness to keep the foot stable during quick movements and weight training. 

The shoe also features a lightly padded footbed that adds another layer of protection to the foot.

The foam is thick in the heel area and becomes thinner towards the front of the shoe. This design allows the forefoot area to be flexible while also keeping the heel well cushioned.

Upper

The Adidas Gymbreaker Bounce uses synthetic and textile materials for the upper. The combination delivers a supportive yet flexible structure that keeps the foot moving naturally.

Some areas, such as the toe box and the tongue, are lined with printed overlays. This material serves to protect the fabric from abrasion and early deterioration.

It features a lacing system that keeps the foot secure. The flat laces pass through eyelets on the medial and lateral sides of the floating mesh. Tightening the laces draw the panels closer to the foot, resulting in a snug and supportive fit.

Both the tongue and collar are padded to keep the foot comfortable and to prevent accidental shoe-removals during workouts.

A breathable textile lines the inside of the trainer. This material delivers a smooth and comfortable wrap that prevents irritation from affecting the foot. It also makes the shoe easy to slip on and off.
