Adidas Men's Solar Boost 21 Running Shoes - Lightweight Cushioned Sneakers for Marathon Training & Road Running | Perfect for Jogging, Gym Workouts & Everyday Wear

The adidas Solar Boost 21 shoes are a great fitting, comfortable pair of shoes. Item was shipped day of order and arrived a day early.The Adidas website does not show a Solar Boost 21 but does show Solar Boost 3 model. These shoes are actually a pair of Solar Boost 3. The photo shows the Amazon label on top and the actual printed label on the box.Great running shoes, great fit even for my wide feet. Nice soft ride due to Boost technology, though not too soft. I bought these to replace my Hoka Arahi 5 which I find too soft and cushy.I have used the Adidas Solarboost for about 4 years, maybe 6-8 pairs, running 1000mi per year. Before that, ran on the the Supernova Glide (replaced by Solarboost) - going back to maybe 2013 - several pairs also. The last and the ride for these shoes has been consistent from pair to pair for the past 9 years (12.5 M for me) with neutral support and good cushion. But this current purchase of Solarboost 3 - same size - has a tighter toe box as well as a stiffer, harder ride. I put about 25 mi on the pair, but it is a noticeably different shoe, and unusable for me because of the rubbing from the tighter toe box. I would expect Adidas to offer some consistency with the model year to year. The vendor refers to this model as Solar Boost 21, which is also strange, but clarifies in the questions that it is Solarboost 3. Maybe it is a second, or something like that. So if you plan to replace an older model of Solarboost with this product, check the sizing and cushion before running on them.First shoe i paid over 100 dollars for and it was well worth it...comfortably snug,heel cushion is good but a little lighter cushion in the forefoot..overall a 4 star shoe for my moneyI run around 150-200km with these every week and around 60km-100km every Sunday. I get around 1200km mileage in these shoes. I would suggest starting to rotate them with other shoes at around 1000km.Bought these for my son who’s on the track team. Teenager who prone to shin splints. These have help tremendously!!I have purchased many pairs of adidas running shoes in the past. In fact, I even held up my rockadia m's in size 12 next to these. These Solar Boosts were easily 3/4 to an inch larger than the rockadias. I don't understand how this could happen. It makes me very uneasy about purchasing future adidas products. Seems like a pretty good shoe, maybe. Now I will never know.Well made. Very comfortable. Feels like a better version of the 2019 with done additional mid-sole support.This indeed is a good pair of running shoes. With the continental rubber and boost midsole you can exepct durability & performance. I have an old pair of ultraboost that I've been wearing for the past 2 years. Really love the boost midsole but the outsole is now miserable & the boost midsole is so compressed that I can pretty much feel what's under my feet. The solarboost is as good as ultraboost but at a much more affordable price.Build is super. Drives complements. They are solid but the boost effect is somewhat less compare to my senseboost and ultraboost. The boost on them is miles ahead in terms of cushioning.That been said, I cannot use my other pairs for running as they are too soft for that but this is the pair which I can imagine will handel some abuse. They have a firmer ride so gym and running is much possible.For walking only, wont recommend these, for that senseboost, pureboost, ultraboost are ideal pairs. These are more suited for activities.However, the left pair is making some squishing sound at the heels and I have only worn them for 4 days at the moment. There is no visible damage but the sound.Will update if any issue arises.Great Shoes from Addidas. I am really enjoying it during my walking and running regime everyday.
