What We Don’t Like Concerning the Adidas Boston 13
THOMAS: I hoped the extra 14% of Lightstrike Professional would give the forefoot somewhat extra bounce, however the Boston 13 really feels, if something, a shade firmer than the 12. The mix of twin foams — secure within the heel, cushioned up entrance — is a brilliant design in concept. I simply want Adidas had pushed that feeling additional.
Adidas lacing methods all the time look easy, but in some way, like assembling Ikea furnishings, they by no means appear simple to dial in completely. Getting a stable lockdown takes trial and error. I seen some heel raise within the 13, so I turned to the runner’s loop for a greater match — solely to seek out the laces too quick. Would together with an additional pair of longer laces clear up the issue or simply create extra waste? I’ll go away that query to the shoe philosophers.
MEAGHAN: Like Thomas, I hoped the added Lightstrike Professional would translate to a softer, extra cushioned trip, however that wasn’t fairly the case. As somebody who usually gravitates towards softer, bouncier sneakers, it’s arduous to not attain for the Evo SL over the Boston 13. I suppose this isn’t a lot a knock on the shoe, however extra of a private desire.
