These white adidas Torsion TRDC sneakers feature a ridged rubber sole, a round toe, stitched suede panels, a lace-up front fastening, brand embossed tongue, Adiprene heel cushioning, a shocking-absorbing midsole, reflective details and pull tab at the rear. In the field of solid mechanics, torsion is the twisting of an object due to an applied torque.
