Ok, I Adidas LA Trainer Mens Cheap understand now. They do make a 12.5 BB5 as I¡¯m about to go running in those I ordered last week ?? They seem to be identical in length to the 12 model, just larger, my toes no longer feel like they are in a straightjacket!It¡¯s consistent with what the shoeftr diagrams show and it sounds very much like Pete¡¯s experience with the AB2, a bit odd!For a comparison: the Glide Boost size 10 fits me perfectly, yet the Boston Boost in size 10 1/2 feels really tight (might need some breaking in, but then I can¡¯t get a refund any more). The Adios Boost size 10 1/2 might be a tad long, but not too tight and works just fine.

Great review Peter!! The drop on these is simply too much for my running style regardless of how good the cushioning is. I love the energy boost and I definitely appreciate the heftier forefoot cushioning on them but I really wish they would release a zero or 4mm drop shoe. I already gave in and bought the energy boost, but I wont bother with another boost shoe I buy unless they release a lower drop shoe.I think it¡¯s because the heel in the 1400v2 slightly softer and the revlite midsole compresses easier. The boost has a very bouncy feel so your heel won¡¯t compress the boost material and have it stay that way. I had the same problem with the original 1400 with a slightly larger drop UserPostedImage and not as soft heel not compressing enough for my stride.



Thanks for the review. I¡¯ve finally found a shoe that fits me well for most of my runs with the Adidas Glide Boost but they¡¯re a bit ¡°wide¡± and I could have used something ¡°tighter¡± for my latest 10k. I tried the Adios Boost 1 but they felt even wider in the front and the upper felt too plasticky. It seems like the tighter Adios Boost 2 are shoes I should try! Like Francis I¡¯m looking forward to hearing how the Boston feel like. Not sure there¡¯s a lot of room between the Adios and the Glide though.I am cursed with a size 13. The adios boost is my favorite shoe and the 13 fits me perfectly. I just tried on the 2 and it is too tight. Why don¡¯t shoe company¡¯s make 13.5? I couldn¡¯t find a 12.5, almost bought a 13. Bought a 12, and now after reading all the comments I¡¯m gonna call and try to have them replaced.

Hi Ryan and thanks for reading the review. I haven¡¯t run in the recent Fuji Racer, but yes on paper would be a similar idea, the only difference is I don¡¯t prefer ASICS midsole compounds and fit as much as adidas, but if ASICS works for you then they might be a good option. I think the XT 5 is a little more streamlined than the Fuji, but similar concepts for sure. Thanks for the comment on our view, we have a nice valley here in Eastern Oregon and another mountain range in the other direction as well¡­.a small little Colorado in Oregon :). Take Care, DavidI¡¯ve been running the local trails with the Boston Boost 5, and I think a slightly more aggressive outsole would make it a perfect trail shoe for those who need more traction. As it is, the sole on the Boston Boost 5 does a fine job on the dirt trails here in the SF Bay Area.

The weight issue is an interesting question ¨C I know some people who think it¡¯s a problem and others who do not. I¡¯d sy let your experience be your guide ¨C if the Kinvara is working well, and your form is good, I think the Hagio would probably be no problem. This shoe actually has a bit mor Adidas Superstar Mens Chea e heel lift than the Kinvara, but is firmer so not quite as forgiving. I do know one guy who is bigger than you who runs marathons in the Mizuno Universe, so it¡¯s certainly possible to be on the heavier side and run well in a more minimal shoe. I also know some big guys who regularly run barefoot without issue.In other words, as i got a good experience with the kinvara and i am in a good form, i am really thinking about dropping to these new models, such a Adidas ZX 700 Mens UK s the adidas hagio, Merrell Bare Access, mizuno universe and MT00.
