FAQs
What is the weight of the Adizero Boston 13?
The shoe weighs approximately 260g, making it a lightweight option for fast-paced training.
Does this shoe have a carbon plate?
No, it features glass fibre Energyrods 2.0, which provide a propulsive experience without the stiffness of carbon plates.
What is the heel-to-toe drop?
The Boston 13 features a 6 mm midsole drop.
Can I use these for long-distance races?
Yes, they are designed for race day, though your comfort preference for firm versus soft cushioning will determine if they are suitable for your specific marathon needs.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
The shoes follow a regular fit. If you are between sizes, it is recommended to opt for the larger size as feet tend to swell during longer runs.
Troubleshooting
Midsole feels too firm during the first run
The Lightstrike foam requires a brief break-in period; try using them for shorter sessions first until the material adapts to your foot strike.
Heel slippage during high-intensity efforts
Utilize the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to secure the ankle collar more firmly against the foot.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Adizero Boston 13s last, follow these maintenance tips:
- Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for a few short runs to allow the foam and upper to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Hand wash only using lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Remove the laces and insoles separately.
- Drying: Air dry at room temperature. Never place these trainers in a tumble dryer or directly against a heat source like a radiator, as this can warp the foam and compromise the glue bonds.
- Surface Compatibility: Designed specifically for road and track surfaces. Avoid technical trail running or off-road conditions to preserve the integrity of the Lighttraxion outsole.
