I have worn the adidas boston for over 7 years and I went to get a new pair today and they changed the style. Is anyone else out there Boston wearers? Have you worn the new style and are they noticeably different?

The new Boston is a little lighter and the upper is more breatheable. It is a great update, but of course, it may fit differently. You might compare it with the Supernova Cushion 7, which is also relatively light and very responsive.
The new Boston is a great shoe. It's on adidas' new last which is a little wider in the forefoot but still gives you a fairly snug fit in the midfoot and heel (not as snug in the midfoot as the old Boston). It's a lighterweight version of the supernova cushion essentially and is a great shoe for the more efficient runner as it doesn't have the formotion unit in the heel.
HOWEVER.....the "old boston" or the "Boston Classic" is STILL AVAILABLE! so either way you want to go you've got a great shoe. I'd check out the new boston and see what you think of them, but if you absolutely can't wrap your head around getting in a new shoe then adidas is still making the old standby.
