adidas made a special adizero Prime SP, that is quite patriotic, for Tyson Gay. It also has Trinity on it, for his daughter. The special adizero will be on sale from EastBay shortly, details below.
Tyson Gay in adidas Media Lounge, 1 August 2012
Ahead of the August 5 men’s 100m final at the London 2012 Games, Tyson Gay will be
wearing a pair of patriotic adizero Prime SPs, personalized with an American
flag-inspired design and his daughter’s name, Trinity, embroidered on the tongue.
At 3.5 ounces, the adizero Prime SP is the lightest sprint spike ever made and 62
percent lighter than the adizero Demolisher worn at the Beijing 2008 Olympics.
The adizero Prime SP will be available in the U.S. on eastbay.com for $212 in
August 2012.
