Great review! I've had 250+ miles and agree with a lot of your analysis. One negative is the durability!
Great review. As someone with 350+ miles in the Boston 10, the 12 will be my next Daily Trainer. Glad to see the improvements as it did take a good while for the shoe to soften up a little.
I think you will really enjoy the 12! I have noticed in other Adidas shoes as well, they take a little while to break in, but I feel like they also last a bit longer too.
if they make it full lightstrike pro they will kill the adios pro shoe so that will never happen. adios pro is 40mm full ls pro. takumi sen is lower stack full ls pro. boston is in the middle
Yeah very true, good points! It's all a trade off in terms of cost, durability and marketing I guess.
Great review! I've started running two months ago and I'm about to buy my first pair of running shoes but I can't decide myself between the Boston 12s and the Endorphin speed 4s because my wallet can only afford one pair at the moment so I'm looking for a versatile one to lower my 56 minutes in 10k. So what would you suggest me?
Sorry I just saw this comment, I would probably go with the Speed 4s for all out speed, although they are £40 more expensive. So for the price point I think the Boston 12s are the best value. If you can pick up the Speed 3s on a discount that would be an option too!
I love my pair. Great feel when running. They do seem cheap in the upper and I hate the tongue though.
Maybe they will make some changes in the 13th version in the upper, it will be interesting to see what they do with it. I am doubting they will change the midsole much.
i have one and have 600 km and counting great shoe
Nice, good to know they do last quite a while!
I have about 200 km in them, great shoes. I find the upper a bit less comfortable than my other favourite shoe, the Endorphin Speed 3. It's snappy and nice though.
Glad you are enjoying them! Both are great shoes
Does the upper stretch after a while/ breaking in? I find the upper rather tight.
I have found the upper did give a little, but it took a little while. I hope it works out for you!
Agreed on the laces have to double lace it or not itll just come loose
I am glad I am not the only one with that problem!
would you recommend this shoe for a faster pace/ to do sprints?
Yeah you can do definitely! It's not as quick as an Adios Pro or Prime X would be, but it's still quite capable at faster paces.
Thanks 🙏 looking for a new shoe myself and this will surely come in handy
All Adidas shoes have a cut out on the bottom heel area where you land as run.They cut out the foam where it’s the most needed. for this reason, not too many people runs with Adidas shoes. Big flaw.
Why these are hard on me ?😢 I brought them and they are giving me. pain fr this are first time I'm using carbon fiber shoes aslo it's been 2-3 days i have been running in these . Quite heavy if i say
They take a while to break in, for me they took around 60km before they started to become a little softer. But overall it's not the softest shoe out there.
The Upper is mehhh
i call b.s. on this so-called review. keep using these shoes and you will invariably end up creating lower leg/foot deficiencies, possibly lumbopelvic dysfunctions and most certainly neuromechical imbalances. and im talking from a clinical perspective from runners seen in the office. the "research" on these is a sham as well. enjoy!
I run in all sorts of shoes, not just plated shoes. Never had any serious injuries, but thanks for the concern.
