Overall

I have been running in the Bostons for nearly 4 years. The 3s were the best and I bought them until I could no longer find them, well after they stopped making them. The 4s were terrible. The Boost edition has been great and I am on my third pair. However, they run a little small and I had to go up half a size. Overall, a very comfortable, durable, but also light weight trainer.

I bought 20 pairs of these when they were discontinued, please bring them back! Great neutral light shoe for training and long distance racing. I've had Achilles issues with other models but not these.
