FAQs

Are the Adidas Adizero Boston 13 suitable for marathon running?

Yes, the Adizero Boston 13 is designed for mid-to-long runs and racing, making it suitable for marathon distances, especially for neutral runners looking for a balance of speed and comfort.

What is the main difference between the Boston 13 and the Boston 12?

The Adizero Boston 13 features 13.8% more Lightstrike Pro midsole foam for a softer and more comfortable ride, along with updated ENERGYRODS 2.0 and a new LIGHTTRAXION outsole.

Can I use these shoes for daily casual wear?

While comfortable, these are performance running shoes. For optimal longevity and to maintain their performance characteristics, it's best to reserve them for running and training activities.

Do these shoes offer arch support?

The Adizero Boston 13 is a neutral running shoe and does not inherently provide structured arch support. It's designed to work with the foot's natural motion. Runners needing specific arch support may consider using their own insoles.

How do I know if these shoes are the right fit for my running style?

These are neutral shoes, ideal for runners with a neutral pronation. If you tend to roll your foot inward excessively (overpronation) or outward (supination), you might benefit from a stability shoe or consulting with a running expert.

What is the purpose of the ENERGYRODS 2.0?

ENERGYRODS 2.0 are internal components designed to minimize energy loss during the stride, promoting a more efficient and propulsive toe-off, helping you run faster with less effort.

How durable is the LIGHTTRAXION outsole?

The LIGHTTRAXION outsole, combined with Continental™ Rubber, is designed to offer a good balance of lightweight performance and grip. Durability can vary based on running surface, frequency, and individual biomechanics.

Troubleshooting

Slightly stiff feel on first wear

This is normal for performance running shoes. Wear them for a few shorter runs to break them in. The cushioning will soften and adapt to your foot.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

While Continental™ Rubber offers excellent grip, extreme wet conditions can still pose challenges. Clean the outsole regularly to ensure optimal performance. Consider alternative shoes for very wet or slippery conditions if grip is paramount.

Feeling of pressure points

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Try adjusting the lacing system to relieve pressure. If discomfort persists, consider a different lacing technique or consult a running specialist.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear running shoes. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal performance and comfort. It is recommended to wear them for a short walk or jog before a long run to allow your feet to adapt to the shoe's geometry and cushioning.

Compatibility: The Adizero Boston 13 is a neutral running shoe, best suited for runners with a neutral gait or those who use custom orthotics. It is compatible with most standard running socks.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Gently clean the upper with a soft brush or cloth and cool water to remove dirt. Avoid harsh detergents.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
  4. Laundering: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can compromise the shoe's structure and cushioning.
