I have been running with Adios for years now. I love how its light and fast and perfect in sprints, but still works like a dream in longer runs. These shoes are actually rather difficult to buy in Finland, but it has not made me change my running shoe. If you have found the best running shoe for you, why would you change it? ... read more

It's a stiff shoe. For my feet, the torsion system can go away because I can feel it hit the pavement when I run in these. This feeling reverberates up to my knees. The cushioning feels dead to me, from the toe area up to just under the arch area of my feet. The cushioning under the heel doesn't start working for me until about 8 miles into my runs. It's a warm shoe. The toe box is covered with a lining. But it's light and it looks good. My Adizero Adios 3 is better. But cushioning is dead on that shoe after 200+ miles. ... read more

I have worn many different types of Adidas Shoes for running over the past 3 years. These are by far my favourite runners, the last ones being the adizero Prime ltd 5 years. I love the fact that these are eco friendly made by plastic found in the sea. They feel lightweight and fast with plenty of support. As a sub 3 hour runner, Adidas has seen me through PB after PB and I love wearing the design of the Adizero and Boost range. ... read more

These are legitimately one of the best shoes I have run in, and I rotate running shoes quite a bit. Adidas made an already great shoes even better. I felt the 6s ran true to size, but I found the 7s to be yet truer to size, if that makes sense. One of the most notable upgrade on the 7s are how more secure the heel feels compared to the 6s. Not that I had issues with the 6s, but the 7s secures your heels even better, without any added discomfort. The width on toe box and forefoot the 7s is a bit more forgiving without being sloppy. The ride on the 7s is slightly stiffer compared to the 6s, but that could be because I have considerable more miles on my 6s than I have on my 7s. Overall a great shoe and in my opinion one of the best in the market. Very versatile. Has enough cushioning to be a daily trainer, but enough responsiveness and light enough to be used in races or tempo runs. ... read more

Near perfect, hence the 4 stars. Positives: - The protective edge of the toe box has finally been lengthened on the side, so it is not cutting into the second small toe (hopefully less black toe nails and no need to cut holes into the shoe any more). This is a BIG plus as all previous models were very weak on this point. I would like the edge to be on the outside (not the invisible design), and in softer, but more robust material - hence the 4*. - Weight is still light (great) Things to improve (and reason for 'near perfect'): - DROP (this is the main reason for losing a star): a lower drop (ideally 4mm, but even 5/6mm) could make this shoe perfect Other imperfections: - Toe box edge (as explained above) - Shoe feels stiffer than previous models - Shoe laces look and feel cheap - Colours could be better, but this is not a priority over design. ... read more

One of the best looking shoes I've had, but unfortunately they run too narrow. Tried a full size up from my usual size, but they're still too tight. A shame, cause I love everything else about the shoe ... read more

I have several other pair of adidas sneakers in 12.5 and these were EXTREMELY small. They fit maybe like an 11 and I couldn't even tie them. By this scale, I think I would probably need 13.5 which they don't make so I had to return them and find something else. ... read more

I love Bostons. They are the my go to all-rounders. I can wear them for 200m reps to LSRs. The 7s are no different to the 6s apart from a few minor ‘cosmetic’ changes. I go half size up. A shame the price has rocketed, partly due to Kanye and ‘boost’ becoming a fashion thing. ... read more

I run about 4.5 miles, 3-4 time a week on my local roads and have been a long adidas fan. Recently I’ve had negative experiences with mega boost , in my mind all gimmicky. And who sells shoes without an insole? Insane. I picked this shoe expecting it to be a proper runners shoe and I was not disappointed. It’s lighweight, no superfluous bulk and sufficeient cushioning with out too much. No silly features, just a regular running shoe done right! ... read more

I wear size 11 so I ordered 12 as usual for running. It feels a little smaller than a normal size 12, which was great! No toes pain or problems so far. I took it on shorter runs 5-10 miles and so far it is great. Heals are nice and snug, toes are happy and free, feels like a minimalist shoe (I have a couple of those) but with the necessary cushioning. I am planning to run my next marathon with this pair. My next long run is this weekend so i will come back here only if I get a black toe. My biggest problem with many other shoes is a burn under the feet in the middle front after 3-4 miles and this one had no burn at all. I cycle between 4 pairs turing one marathon season and this is the pair I am most afraid to wear out (I may just go ahead and buy another copy!). Oh, that reminds me, it does wear out quickly so i won't expect more than 300-400 miles out of these. ... read more

I wanted to love this shoe. I really did and at this price point you expect the highest quality but unfortunately I didn't receive that. The right shoe was significantly smaller than the left shoe when on my foot. Overall, the profile of the right shoe was smaller than the left as well. Really disappointed as the shoe is visually amazing. :( ... read more

Followed the advice from reviews here and DEFINITELY go a size up. I order a size bigger and they fit perfectly. Super light and very comfortable. Breathe very well. I highly recommend as a racing shoe. ... read more

I have owned this shoe for just over a year and both soles have holes in them. I created my own so they cost $150 and I would think they would last longer than a year. I don’t run 20 miles a week, maybe 5 tops. Very disappointed ... read more

I am really disappointed/ frustrated with Adidas repeated inconsistent sizing issues. These Boston 7s do not fit like the 4 pair of Boston 6s I have owned, they fit more like the 10+ pairs Boston 5 in my opinion. (I found the 6s to feel smaller than the 5s, had change to B width and go up 1/2 size). Toe box feels way roomier and cranked down heel locked tied shoes I can get my index fingers between heel collar/ side wall on both sides of my smaller foot and with a little discomfort I can pop my heel out said tied shoe. I am unable to do this with any of my beat up stretched out Boston 6s. Thes are the forth pair of improper sized Adidas Bostons I have tried within a roughly 2 year span bought through 3 legit sources. ... read more

I saw this shoe on someone in a park and asked for the name because normally I just cannot stand how clunky and big running shoes have become. This one is NOT like that. It's a great sleek fit. Also super comfortable. I only wish there was another color, but I think they were discontinued. ... read more

I really wanted to love these shoes. I am loyal Adidas customer and have been wearing their shoes for many years. However, Adidas really got it wrong with the upper material in my opinion, despite the technical rationale behind its use. It feels like a chicken wire has been wrapped around my feet, on the inside of the shoes. Adidas, PLEASE change the upper, then you would have the perfect shoe! The upper box structure and material (that fact that the toe protection is on the outside) IS perfect which is why I have given two stars. Sadly, no matter how good the shoe box would be, the rest of the design makes the shoes unwearable for me - they are going to back to Adidas. I really would love to have the option to customise the upper for a different material. If Adidas could introduce a lower (4-5mm) drop, that would be a bonus. ... read more

Everything about the shoe looked perfect, but unfortunately the half size down was too narrow and the size above had too much room above the foot. Not so suitable for wider feet but seems like a great shoe. ... read more

I bought a pair for my husband and me and we both love, love, love them. Super comphy and was true to comments went up a whole size in the men's shoe and up a half size in women's shoes. Wear all the time. Get tons of compliments. Worth the price. Will be purchasing more. ... read more

I bought them for looks...and as a long time runner, I know you don’t do that. But if they don’t work as trainers, I’ll wear them casually. I’m on the fence about the throwback look, but they are such a great shoe and I really want them to work! ... read more

I have been running for years. I don’t usually wear Adidas, but I decided to give them a try. I was extremely happy with everything about them. Good overall comfort, flexibility, and definitely the best energy return I have ever felt in a sneaker. Very happy with my purchase and I will continue to buy more Adidas Adizero Adios in the future. ... read more

Sharp, comfortable...I bought these because I finished the most awful but best Boston Marathon ever. They are loud and scream Boston Marathon. They are cool as heck, but I am embarrassed I paid $120 for a pair of shoes. ... read more

Adidas description is on point. Super lightweight shoes that don't weight down your feet when you go running. I love the way the top mesh wraps/hugs the top of your feet. I use these shoes for running and boot camp class which involves lot of running, jumping up, down, sideways all while your foot stays locked in to the shoe without having to tide lock down your laces. Offers great top foot, side, and sole support. I'm a sized 10 in Adidas, and a sized 10 in these shoes fit me perfectly. I'm considering buying a second pair. ... read more

Trained for my marathon in a different brand of sneakers. Got to my first taper week without problems. Achilles issues developed, panic set in, and I needed a bit of marathon mojo to keep me going. Got these shoes 5 days before the race, ran 4 miles in them to try them out. No overwhelming pain. Ran the 26.2 no blisters, no soreness! Didn’t get my BQ, but they’re AWESOME racing sneakers, not magic sneakers. Lightweight and comfortable: just watch out for the puddles! Time will tell how well the treads hold up for this over-supinator runner. ... read more

The design of these shoes is perfection. From the Heel Unicorn, the Colors, and every town name from the race route on the insole. And they are incredibly light. My only dilemma is that I don't want to run in them. May have to get another pair! ... read more

I was so excited for these shoes and got disappointed when they arrived. I always buy 9 and these 9 didn't fit me. It was extremely tight! So, I was going to exchange for a half number bigger. But, when I looked closely it didn't seem the best quality shoes I could get for the price. So, I just returned. It was my first time buying Adidas. Disappointed! Will try again in the future. ... read more
