Adidas Adizero Boston 13, even more complete than their predecessors
If there's one model that has managed to reinvent itself over the years without losing its essence, it's the Adidas Boston. Born in the 80s and with a long history behind it, this shoe has become synonymous with versatility. Now, with its thirteenth edition, Adidas has not simply given it a facelift. The Boston 13 arrive with significant changes and improvements that make a difference from the first stride.
What are the characteristics of these Adidas Adizero Boston 13?
In one word: Balance. The Boston 13 have managed to refine what already worked well and take it a step further.
The most evident change is in the midsole, where we now find a greater quantity of Lightstrike Pro, also making the shoe more reactive. Between this compound and Lightstrike are the Energy Rods 2.0, made of carbon fiber. The result? Greater propulsion and some stability.
The profile of the Adidas Adizero Boston 13 is 37 mm at the heel and 31 mm at the forefoot, which is 1 mm higher at the heel and 1.5 mm at the forefoot compared to the Adidas Boston 12.
The upper also receives a deserved upgrade with a lighter, more breathable mesh and a fit that feels natural from the first wear. The tongue and collar have been padded to add comfort, without hindering the feeling of support. Everything is designed for you to run focused on what matters: your pace, your sensations, your path.
For the sole, Adidas wanted to make sure there were no surprises, neither on dry nor wet surfaces. The combination of Lighttraxion technology, inspired by the Adizero Adios 4, and the classic Continental rubber compound in the big toe area, guarantee excellent grip even when the asphalt is uncooperative.
Additionally, at only 260 grams in size 42 and with a 6 mm drop, the Boston 13 maintain that agile character that is so popular, but now with extra cushioning and durability.
Which runners will get the most out of them?
As we mentioned earlier, the Adidas Adizero Boston 13 are hybrid shoes, so they will be a valid model for both training and race day.
They will be perfect for the runner looking for all-terrain shoes who doesn't want to spend money on two pairs of shoes.
For the runner who wants a fast shoe that isn't one of the "super shoes" for quality training and race day, these Boston 13s will be a perfect choice.
Who do these Adizero Boston 13 compete against?
The Boston 13 are in that interesting category of high-level hybrid shoes. Their direct rivals are models like the Saucony Endorphin Speed 4, Brooks Hyperion Max 2, On Cloudmonster 2 or
Nike Zoom Fly 6. All of them share a similar mission: to be fast, comfortable, and suitable for everyday use.
But the Boston has something special. That classic DNA that has adapted to new times without losing its personality. And now, with this successful redesign, they are once again positioned as one of the best options for those who want it all in one shoe.
As expected, these Adidas Adizero Boston 13 can be found on our website and in physical stores in different colors.
