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 an exceptionally breathable layer, the Boston 12 has a lightweight mesh upper construction. The upper features strategically placed perforations to provide effective ventilation to keep feet cool while ensuring feet are comfortable and encased. The shoes additionally offer a flexible feel in the forefoot while providing support within key areas to allow you to get the most out of them before race day. A textile lining has been used to provide an added bit of comfort and is included to minimise discomfort from a result of high usage. Moreover, the flat-lying tongue and collar provide an easy slip-in feel while simultaneously making sure the foot is snug for little discomfort. Completing the upper, the traditional lacing system helps to lock down the midfoot so you can enjoy 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
The Lightstrike technology is designed to provide a cushioned and dynamic ride through both the primary and secondary midsoles. The Lightstrike 2.0 foam provides a lightweight feel and is motivationally bouncy underfoot. The second, highly praised Lightstrike Pro foam constitutes the other part of the midsole. This is a super durable foam with an even softer formulation with a notable cushion underfoot. Known for having excellent energy return, the Lightstrike Pro will help power you forward towards exceptional performance. Additionally, the ENERGYRODS 2.0 hold a holistic structure system designed for a seamless transition from heel to toe, bringing a 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. Carefully designed with being lightweight in mind, the rubber outsole has been specifically added to the heel and toe areas, missing the midfoot out, to minimise weight. Designed to be exceptionally durable and long-lasting, this provides a resilient, cushioned and grippy running shoe.
