FAQs
What type of runner is the Adizero Boston 12 best for?
These trainers are ideal for neutral runners looking for a versatile shoe that balances speed and comfort for daily training, tempo runs, and even races.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The fit should be snug in the heel and midfoot, with enough room in the toe box.

Troubleshooting
Discomfort during initial runs
The shoes may require a break-in period. Try wearing them for shorter runs initially and gradually increase mileage.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the outsole is durable, traction on extremely wet or slick surfaces may be reduced. Exercise caution in such conditions.
Lack of cushioning for very long runs
If you prefer maximal cushioning for ultra-marathons or very long, slow runs, consider a shoe with a softer, more plush midsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers require no specific setup beyond lacing them to your preferred tightness. Ensure they are the correct size to avoid discomfort.
Compatibility: Designed primarily for road running. They are compatible with most running sock types. While they are designed for adult runners, specific foot shapes may vary. Always check sizing guides.
Care:
- Cleaning: Brush off loose dirt with a dry brush. If necessary, use a damp cloth with mild soap to clean the exterior. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
