Love love these Boston 12’s after the last 2 iterations, brilliant for high tempo runs and slow easy runs,perfectly said Nick about the difference between the 2 foams being less stark which makes for a smoother transition , it is such a major improvement even more than I expected , and relatively cheap with a promo code,so I had to get the green and pale blue colourway as I couldn’t decide 😂

Got the Boston 12 to replace the Boston 11 that I just couldn't get to work for me and I love it. It just may be my favorite daily trainer now although I still love the Deviate Nitro 2. I also have the Speed 3, Novablast 3, Hoka 5, Rebel v3, and Velocity Nitro 2 and they are all good with their unique strengths and rides but I find the Boston 12 the most satisfying, mainly due to the feel and ride underfoot. And, yes, as Nick says, the Boston 12 is fast and pushes you to run fast and do some demanding workouts. It really does have that race supershoe feel and ride. Like all Adizero shoes, the upper and tongue aren't the most inviting and comfortable and need a decent amount of lace fiddling but, once you dial it in, it becomes very comfortable as you run and don't even notice the upper. Adizero shoes aren't known for being plush and accommodating, but that's just how they are to emphasize speed and nimbleness. If you already have other Adizero shoes like the Prime X Strung, Adios Pro 3, Takumi Sen, and Adios like I do, then the Boston 12 will fit in very nicely. It's a fast daily trainer and very versatile although it's not the best for easy/slow paces. It's great for medium-to-fast paces - tempo runs, threshold runs, intervals, marathon-pace long runs, etc. Very happy with the Boston 12. I'm not even considering any other shoes in the so-called "super trainer" category. For me, Lightstrike Pro provides the best balance between propulsion/responsiveness and comfort/protection. It's not too firm and it's not too soft. For me, it's in that "goldilocks" zone that provides the most fun in my runs. The Boston 12 not only continues that tradition but builds upon it and makes it even better. The Lightstrike 2.0 also feels a lot better than v1 as well. This is just a great all-round running shoe.

Elites train in the Boston 12 so you can imagine how fast they are going. I have the TS9 as well and I agree they can beat up your legs if used more than once per week. The Boston 12 is very versatile. Its' noticeably heavier than the TS9, of course, but you can also use it for long tempo runs and some easy paces although it wants you to go fast. Hope this helps!

Maybe a little boring, flat and firm but overall a fun cruising experience. I am now very excited to look forward to it after the break in miles.

Recently bought a pair of the 11s prior to the launch of the 12. They're unwearable. Felt great for the first run but on the second it was immediately obvious that the sides of my big toes rubbed the inside of the shoe on both sides (I'd even gone half a size up) and length wasn't an issue. The main problem though was the heel counter, it's just awful and the stitching created a pressure point which made blisters inevitable. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I can see, that doesn't look like it's been addressed in the 12.

Umm maybe the Boston 12 is a good example of a shoe that does not scale that well for those with larger feet. My UK 13.5 is about 340g and so a good 60g more than the Speed 3. OK it is lighter than the Boston 11 but still feels clunky and the 11 actually fitted me better as found the 12 quite voluminous up front but I do have relatively very narrow feet. For faster work I would take, from adidas alone, the Adios 8, Takumi Sen 9 or Adios Pro 3 everytime over these and all of them are "lightweight" even in my size and I find them fine for slower paces or going for longer runs. Did any of the other Run Testers try this one? Nick always has good insight but equally his paces are way faster than an average runner. In general "super trainers" largely for the weight reasons I alluded to seem a miss for me and anyway Superblast not even offered in my size. I tend to use the carbon racers like the Rocket X2 or Adios Pro 3 I don't like enough to race in but are good for uptempo runs as I don't have the huge weight penalty the lower tier shoes have in my size.

The Boston 12 could be a quite nice running shoe. But it's not (at least for me). And the reason why is the upper material, which is not flexible at all. I don't get it. They could have used their Primeknit and the Boston 12 would be a awesome shoe. I bought the shoe, because it felt great in the store. But about 10 minutes into my first run i had to realise, it's the worst thing my feet ever had to deal with. If you have wide feet, i highly recommend you not to buy this shoe, it's a nightmare. Or size up at least two sizes. And i already ran quite a few shoes till the end of their lifespan (Ultraboost, Solarboost, 2x Clifton8, Caldera6, 2x GT-2000, Deviate Nitro 2). For wide feet i highly recommend you to buy the Puma Deviate Nitro 2 instead. It's quite simmilar to the Boston, but you'll be able to finish your runs with a great pace and without any blisters.

I learnt today the adidas size guide and measurements are completely made up! I’m a U.K. 8.5 in Nike and Puma, based on the adidas measurements I should be a U.K. size 9.5. You can now see me performing in the local big top! I’m returning and exchanging, but based on this I feel I should be going for a U.K. 8.5 as the 9.5 was around two thumb width’s too long. Other than that it felt like a great shoe

The heel flap looks so bad. I’m amazed Adidas keep persisting with it.

It's merely a fold down pull tab. It's quite effective.

Haha, it's great, guess those people at Adidas don't know what they're doing though ... 🤣

DO NOT BUY THIS SHOE Boston 12…. How can adidas make an upper so bad??? Really think they are onto something with this midsole and glass fibre rods but that upper!!!! First run 8 mile run and will never wear them again. The material across the toe box is constrictive and the heel cup is a disaster. The heel cup from what I can see consist of three pieces of plastic or stiffer inner material. I know this because I have 3 blister on each heel. The shoe was even uncomfortable to walk around in. When you spend over £100 on a pair of shoes and have to consign them to the bin after 8 miles is ridiculous.

Thanks for the comment, I was thinking about getting them but seems like adidas have some problems with b12 upper durability and also comfort. Your comment was the final point of the story. I will buy another pair of deviate nitro 2 lol))

I received my Boston 12. I have a problem with the heel counter, I find that it is not tight enough.
