Adidas Solarboost Price in Nigeria and Features

  • Full length Boost midsole roam provides excellent cushioning and energy return with good durability.
  • Improved stability over past Boost models, and Adidas returns to the feel of the Energy Boost.
  • Upper is locked down through an elasticized fit, especially in the forefoot.
  • Flexibility throughout heel to toe transition gives the Solar Boost a natural feel.

CONS

  • Heel cup is fairly unstructured with a lot of flexibility. Runners will either love it or hate it.
  • At $160, the Solar Boost has yet to truly demonstrate its value as compared to other shoes in its class.
  • Forefoot cushioning seems to disperse at footstrike which proves unforgiving at distances over ten miles.

OUR VERDICT

The Adidas Solar Boost is a highly cushioned daily trainer with a accommodating fit for most foot types. While this isn’t a shoe for faster paced running, most runners will appreciate its plush ride and fit for recreational runners to high mileage hogs.The Adidas Boost line has experienced somewhat of an identity crisis over the past few years.

Going back to the highly lauded Energy Boost, Adidas has transitioned to the Ultra Boost which this reviewer did not think provided enough upper support, to the new Solar Boost line which seems to aim at remedying this problem.

Whereas the Ultra Boost offered a sock-like, but unstructured fit using Adidas’ Prime Knit, the Solar Boost adds additional support through the midfoot as well as some structural support with a guidance system.

It seems that while Boost may be one of the best TPU cushioning technologies on the market, adding support without ruining the resilience and pillow like feel of this cushioning seems to be difficult.

For those of you who aren’t complete shoe geeks, TPU foam is comprised of tiny pellets compressed together to yield greater energy return and durability than traditional EVA foam that is a solid piece of foam.

Think styrofoam versus packing peanuts. Adidas has tried various methods of adding structure and support to these high end Boost shoes, and now they have returned to the Torsion System which has been in use in Adidas shoes since the late 1990s.

Adidas Solarboost General Info

The Adidas Solar Boost seems to be the functioning runner’s shoe in the Adidas line for runners looking for premium cushioning. It sits only below the Ultra Boost, which functions best as a lifestyle shoe, in terms of cushioning.

Comparable shoes from other companies include the Hoka One One Bondi, the Asics Nimbus, Nike Vomero, and Brooks Glycerin.

In my initial unboxing of the Solar Boosts I noticed that the shoe had a much more secure fit than the Ultra Boost and a fantastic look with an all black upper flanked by pastel highlights that popped.

In terms of simple aesthetics, its always hard to compete with an Adidas shoe as the iconic three stripes pattern resonates so deeply and historically with running history going back to the 1930s.
