An '80s Running Icon

 

The adidas LA Trainer has been a celebrated sneaker for decades now. It debuted in 1984 for the Los Angeles Olympic Games. The design introduced an adjustable cushioning system, which was a forward-thinking feature for its time. It showcased adidas' commitment to pushing the boundaries of footwear design. Now, it's a classic piece of sneaker heritage.

 

The Vario Peg Cushioning System

 

The LA Trainer is unique and versatile. The Vario Peg Shock-Absorption System in the midsole is a key feature of its design. Three removable pegs on the heel offer a comfortable stride. In the 1980s, athletes could swap these pegs to adjust cushioning and support. On modern retros, these pegs serve as a visual signature. This system gives the shoe a conversation-starting look.
