Best adidas shoes for mileage ??

How much mileage an Adizero Pro can take?

I have a pair of Adizero Pro. I'm not overwhelmed by them. Cushy heal, decent forefoot cushion, and a stiff plate. It feels like the shoe doesn't come alive at all until you're running <7min pace, so not the best daily mileage shoe IMO. The plate feels inflexible and can cause some foot pain until you start upping the effort and actually getting the plate to work for you.

Mine have somewhere in the 150ish range mileage wise and they don't show any wear, they've got continental rubber so I doubt you'd get less than 250-300 out of them.

Boston is probably the best Adidas shoes for durability and running faster than jogging. Have had three pairs and ive gotten 1000km+ out of them all. The sole is great, but you need to wash the upper after running om muddy conditions. Ive tried the takumi sen 3 a couple og times, but the sole was not durable (barely 250km).

IMO Adidas is lacking a daily trainer. The Boston is a good shoe but not enough cushion for my feet anymore. It used to be my daily trainer, but now feels like it beats my legs up too much compared to other brands for daily mileage.

Has anyone tried the Solar Boost? They are $160, so I'm hesitant to spend that much on a shoe I might not like.

Adidas has a good return policy

agreed - love the boston's feel but it's just a notch too firm. And I'm only 145 pounds.

I wish it had just a bit more cush.

If I were King Adidas I'd change it to:

Boston: Everyday trainer - closer to a Peg, but maybe a touch lighter/faster than the Nike

Adios: keep it as is - good shoe for fast days but can be trained in also

Carbon super shoes: Race day

Solar Glide : not for speed sessions but lot of miles

funny you should mention the peg. I was gonna say it sounds like this is what op is looking for.

just go Nike, my friend.

Reebok Forever Floatride Energy is actually similar to the Boston but with some cushioning.

Give them a try. They're cheap as hell.

The solarboost seems to be what you want according to your criteria but I have never tested them.

Have anyone tried the solarboost?

says Adidas lacks a daily trainer

then goes on to ask if anyone has tried their daily trainer

smh

UltraBoosts are the best running shoe out there for daily training. Is great for long runs, easy runs and even workouts. Plus they are stylish.

Adidas doesnt have a Pegasus so to speak, and their lineup is often confusing. They have the lighter Boston, great shoe but cant do all the mileage in them, and then you go up 60/70g with the various Solar models onto the Ultra, Supernovas etc. Puzzling. Agree that the Tempo used to fill that spot. I would get the Solar Glide 3, which is a new shoe and slightly lighter than all those other "bricks".

Note: Takumi Sen is one the lightest racing flat out there. A superb traction shoe but it should not be anywhere near in the conversation of what you are looking for.

first, practice running with ankle weights. If that is ok with you, make the Ultraboost purchase.

Otherwise, stay away. Might be the heaviest real running shoe on the market.

I run in the Solar Boost and Glides and love them! Nice, smooth ride, and soft on the heel, which is good for my achilles.

Get them on sale! I've bought a few from adidas.com for under $90, and then others on eBay and Amazon for under $80 (got one last week). During my prime, running shoes were under $100, so anything about $120 seems crazy to me now. I think they use the Boost foam in attempts to justify the ridiculous price, as the shoes without it seems to be much more reasonable.

Ultraboost every time

Works for Seth Demoor.

Ran in the Solar Glides for some time, they wont break the sound barrier for you but they get the job done. Comfy, durable, decent.
