adidas Adizero Boston 12 Women's Running Shoes

The Boston Marathon is a race. But it's also a goal and a training plan and all the days it stays on your mind before the big one. The Adizero Boston 12 Shoes are built for mid- to long-distance running. They bring a race-day feel to training with a propulsive feel from the glass-fibre-infused ENERGYRODS 2.0, which limits energy loss underfoot. They're fast, but that does not come at the cost of durability - the midsole layers ultra-light LIGHTSTRIKE PRO cushioning with a new version of durable LIGHTSTRIKE 2.0 EVA.

Lightweight Mesh Upper

Providing you with a comfortable layer of protection, the Boston 12 has a lightweight mesh upper construction. The mesh fabrics ensure that the shoes have a sock-like fit, providing your feet with an exceptional supply of airflow to keep feet cool while ensuring they are comfortable and enclosed. The shoes provide a flexible feel with support in key areas, and perforation to provide a constant supply of fresh air for your feet to thrive. A textile lining has also been used on the upper to increase comfort; the lining sits softly against the skin, reducing the risk of chafing and irritation on your run. Completing the upper is a lace closure system that secures the midfoot for distraction-free strides.

Made with at least 50% recycled materials in the upper, this product represents just one of adidas' solutions to help end plastic waste.

Lightstrike Midsole

adidas' updated Lightstrike 2.0 EVA technology has been embedded into the Adizero Boston 12 for more durable cushioning. The Lightstrike compound provides endless energy return from the heel strike to the toe-off phase of the gait cycle. When your heel hits the floor, the midsole compresses and stores kinetic energy. As you transition into mid-stance, the midsole relaxes and releases the stored energy, propelling you forward with an explosive take-off. Additionally, the midsole features Lightstrike Pro cushioning, which protects your joints as you strike hard, unforgiving surfaces while propelling you forward to provide explosive movement and enduring speed. The light and springy ride supports your feet through the gait cycle whilst remaining lightweight to ensure you can reach new PBs. The Boston 12s' newly updated glass-fibre-infused ENERGYRODS 2.0 technology, which is a holistic system designed for a seamless transition from heel to toe, bringing race-day performance to high-speed training runs.

Continental Rubber Outsole

Developed using a Continental rubber outsole, the adidas Adizero Boston 12 ensures extraordinary traction in wet and dry conditions. The outsole is designed to be exceptionally durable and long-lasting, leaving you with a resilient, cushioned and grippy running shoe.
