FAQs

How many miles can I expect from these trainers?

Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot
Adjust the lacing pattern to a loop-lacing or window-lacing technique to relieve tension on the bridge.
Heel slippage during faster runs
Use the extra eyelet at the top of the lacing system to create a runner's loop for a more secure heel lock.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Adizero Boston 12s perform at their best, verify your size matches your standard running footwear before your first run. The shoe is compatible with most standard orthotic inserts if you require custom arch support. For care, wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth after runs in muddy conditions. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the specialized foam cushioning. If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper and allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources.
