Adidas Sprintstar - Lucid Lemon

The adidas Sprintstar IE6870 in Lucid Lemon are lightweight, race-focused track spikes for athletes chasing fast acceleration and top speed over short distances.

Specialist product information positions this model for sprint racing at distances up to 400 metres.

Finished in Lucid Lemon / Arctic Night / Core Black (product code IE6870), these unisex sprint spikes weigh approximately 157g in UK size 8.5 – designed to minimise unnecessary weight while keeping the secure fit needed for powerful starts and high-speed running. From the blocks to the line, the Sprintstar is a focused spike for developing and competitive sprinters in 60m, 100m, 200m and 400m events.

Performance Overview

The Sprintstar is built around the specific demands of short-distance sprinting. Unlike road running shoes, which prioritise cushioning for repeated mileage, it focuses on low weight, secure lockdown and direct track traction. The synthetic outsole and spike plate give the grip needed when driving from the blocks and through the opening phase of a race, so you can apply force to the track with confidence while the light construction supports rapid turnover as speed builds.

Independent laboratory testing of the Sprintstar platform characterises it as a low-stack, ground-focused sprint spike rather than a highly cushioned or energy-returning super spike, which makes it particularly suitable for athletes who want a traditional, direct connection with the track. It is a straightforward, effective spike that lets athletes focus on their start, acceleration, sprint mechanics and finishing speed.
