Lightweight, peppy and fast, the adidas Adizero Boston 12 will put a spring in your step.
The energetic foam is a layered combination of adidasâ Lightstrike Pro and Lightstrike 2.0 that is engineered to deliver a cushioned and dynamic ride. In between the layers are glass-fiber infused energy rods that give you a seamless transition from heel to toe. Reviewers loved how the Boston 12 struck the perfect balance between firm and springy in our adidas Adizero Boston 12 review..
The upper has been redesigned with an engineered mesh that gives you targeted support and breathability. There are key zones that provide both midfoot lockdown and forefoot flexibility to keep you running fast. Plus, adidas used at least 50% recycled materials in the upper.

Reviews
Boston 12 is a big improvement.
Big improvement over the Boston 11s. These give a solid ride and Addidas has figured out the tongue issue.
Give the Adidas Boston 12 running shoes a try.
This is my first pair of Adidas running shoes and so far they feel great.The shoelaces were mismatched in length for some reason (too short) and were really thin.I replaced the laces with some longer and more durable laces.The heel is not as snug as my Asics Kayano 30 running shoes but I am using the runnerââŹâ˘s loop to snug up the heel better and it is fine now.I would recommend these shoes since they are comfortable and feel great for faster runs.
Not Great but just okay
I had high expectations for the Boston 12. It is just okay. Not great at anything from long run to speed work. It is not terrible but okay. There are better options out there. There is a reason I went away from the Bostons but decided to give it another shot. No where near the great ride of the New Balance Rebel V3.
