adidas Barricade 14
Updates and Technologies
Mesh upper evolution:
The Barricade 14 introduces an upgraded engineered-mesh upper that improves breathability and long-term durability. The new knit pattern enhances flexibility during lateral movement while maintaining the locked-in stability the Barricade line is known for.
Dual-Density Stability Foam:
adidas equips the Barricade 14 with an evolved dual-density midsole system. A firmer stability foam sits in the forefoot to support explosive side-to-side movement, while a softer, more responsive heel foam delivers improved shock absorption and all-day comfort on court.
GEOFIT+ Heel Integration:
An enhanced version of adidas' GEOFIT technology shapes itself naturally to the heel for a more secure, anatomical lockdown. Additional padding around the collar helps reduce heel slippage and increases comfort during long matches.
Adaptive Wing-Tongue Construction:
The Barricade 14 debuts a more refined wing-tongue design that adapts to the shape of the foot, providing a plush, even pressure distribution across the instep. This update enhances comfort while maintaining a supportive and stable fit.
Key structural elements that continue from previous Barricade generations include the Torsion System for reliable midfoot stability, the asymmetrical lacing system for secure foot lockdown, and adituff abrasion-resistant overlays placed at high-wear zones for extended durability. The outsole is built with a highly durable adiwear rubber compound for dependable traction and long-lasting performance across court surfaces.
