Good shoe, could last longer

I've always been an Adidas trainer fan. Adistar Ride being the best shoe i've run in. Since Boost came about the shoes have always been conformable, not as firm but well cushioned. The durability of Boost lets Adidas down, in all their ranges. The shoes are great for 250 miles (4 weeks in the same shoe, personally) but start to feel flat there after.

Overall

Love these shoes! Adidas shoes always fit me like socks and this model was no exception. Was a little hesitant about Adidas' transition to the "Boost" foam, but I've hardly noticed any difference from previous EVA foam models (which is a good thing). Everything's been great so far with these shoes and they're actually holding up really long (~500 miles)... maybe due to the Boost foam? Anyway, the only knock I have against these shoes is that I can't do intervals in them. Normal runs, long runs, tempo runs, trail runs... check check check check; but as soon as I really get up on my toes (~sub 5:15 pace) I feel my big toe on either foot sliding over the edge of the sole... like the toes box is too narrow if you're going to run on your toes. Haven't felt this at any other pace (like I state below, I'm usually doing ~6:00 to 6:30 pace on my runs as I'm only able to get 40 miles per week with work). Highly recommend these!
