FAQs

What type of runner is this shoe best suited for?

These trainers are best for adult runners focused on medium to long distance runs (0-42 km) who require medium support and a propulsive feel.

How does the cushioning system work?

It uses a dual-layer system with Lightstrike Pro and Lightstrike 2.0 foam, providing super-light cushioning that is both responsive and protective.

What is the benefit of the Adizero Slinglaunch heel construction?

This construction is designed to provide a secure hold for the heel, preventing slippage and enhancing stability during runs.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

The Continental LIGHTTRAXION rubber outsole offers grip on various terrains, making them suitable for light trails in addition to road running. However, they are primarily designed for road and training.

What does 'ENERGYRODS 2.0' do?

This system is integrated into the midsole to create a propulsive feel, encouraging a smooth and efficient transition from heel strike to toe-off.

How should I clean my Adizero Boston 13 trainers?

Wipe them clean with a damp cloth. Avoid using a washing machine, and allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

Is this shoe suitable for marathon racing?

Yes, due to their lightweight cushioning and propulsive design, they can be suitable for marathon racing, especially for runners who prefer a more responsive feel and medium support.

Troubleshooting

Unusual noise during run

Check for any debris lodged in the outsole grooves. Ensure laces are tied correctly to prevent foot slippage.

Slightly tight fit

Ensure laces are not over-tightened. Consider using the extra eyelet for a more secure or adjusted fit. Allow for a short break-in period.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

Ensure the outsole is clean of mud or debris. The Continental rubber is designed for grip, but excessive contaminants can affect performance. Inspect outsole for excessive wear.
