I was excited to receive these shoes as I have recently gotten back into running, however, I was sent used shoes. When I opened the box the shoes were laced. I thought ok, that’s odd. But when I removed the shoes there were clear markings on the bottom as if they have all ready been worn. Dirt is on the heel and the tip of the toe box. Very disappointed. I am running again after PT for an ankle injury. I do not want a used running shoe. I expected more from REI.
This was super comfy! I bought a size 8 and it fits true to size. Perfect for everyday and I love how it looks too! The shoe itself is very lightweight and is cushioning. I don’t love the grey color since I prefer white, but it was close enough and you can’t beat the price!! Although I’m gonna keep an eye out for the white color pair to buy. I’d definitely recommend this.
Love them! So comfy! And you can’t beat that price!
So pleased with this shoe, especially at the bargain sale price!! My first adidas and I like them. I run3-4 miles 3x a week and have found these to be perfectly comfortable and light. I read they are narrow and liking room for my toes I sized up to 10 from my normal 9.5.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have only done one run in these so far and it was hill repeats (prob not the best first test). These are a bit stiff for non-plated shoes which I like, but I do think they could use a tad more cushion thus 4 stars. I will definitely use them for training runs, but nothing over 6 miles, most likely opting for something with more cushion for those longer runs. I think these were a great value for the price and are a great addition to my shoe rotation. Also, they look awesome!
I purchased a new pair on sale to train in for some upcoming marathons and after a couple of weeks of use, I have no complaints whatsoever. If you’re a runner who already sizes up, you don’t need to size up on top of that. I’m a size 7 1/2 but I normally wear a size 8 for running shoes to compensate for swelling and this shoe was no exception. The size 8 is working out so well that I bought a second pair on sale.
Great fitting and comfortable shoe. Toe box is a bit wider than other running shoes, but even with a narrow foot I find it works for me. (I do use thin orthotics, so that helps.) I’m usually a size 9 but because I have the Adidas Terrex in 9 ½, I ordered same in Adizero and they fit perfectly. The real bonus…you can’t beat the sale price!
Best daily trainer at this price point, versatile, fast, crazy durability, and the sale is CRAZY GOOD, you are literally robbing adidas so just buy it when on sale:))) oh and the look is amazing too!
Great training shoes!! Love how they feel, light responsive, super comfortable great room at front!! Love the look and material!! No break in for me!! Just awesome!!
Super light, crazy comfortable and tons of arch support. I love these shoes. I am an ultraboost lover and recently branched out to a different sole. Per other recommendations at them being cut small, I ordered my regular size 10 but also a 10.5 so I could compare. I kept the 10.5s. The color is very bright (I got the mint) and fun. I am slightly concerned about the longevity of the 2 elastic eyelets for the laces (the first 2 on the shoe). Hoping they hold up. Otherwise love these shoes and am contemplating getting a second pair in a different colorway.
