Adidas Solarboost 3

Sit down because the price is coming, it's £140 which is a lot of money for arguably a sort of daily trainer slash long run shoe but here's what it is...

Though if you're looking for something that can hammer out the daily miles and it's going to provide some durability in the long term I think it could...

It works brilliantly. It's loved by so many of us out there, including myself. It gives that really plush cushion ride and yet it's still really respo...

Alright guys, thanks for tuning in to my review of the Adidas Solar Boost 3.

I spotted the new Solarboost 3 on the Adidas website and decided to give it a go after reading comments about it being wider. I snagged 25% off and received it today. The fit is actually similar to the Symmetros for my wide feet but a bit more snug race like fit if that makes sense, while my high volume foot did easily slide in.

If I compare these to other sneakers I've had before (Asics Nimbus, Mizuno Wave Creation, Saucony Triumph) the Solar glides look not only cheaper but outdated too. Overpriced from my point of view.

The box was damaged and the shoes are dirty in some parts

I’m running my dailys and long runs in the adidas solarboost 3. The solarboost line has some stability features while still being a neutral trainer. Not a huge stack but the boost is pretty good cushioning.

Could be great, but it isn't. Upper last is loose on foot and rough/scratchy inside leading to discomfort. Mid and outsole are nice, but outsole is clunky and overbuilt. The Solarglide 4 was better.

Although the shoe itself is relatively wide, I find the toe box tapers at the end and rubs very slightly against my little toe. It's not tight per se and not causing any agitation but I'm aware of it. I suspect it's all subjective and very much depends what other shoes you have ran in. For reference, I have the Asics Evoride 2 (absolutely love these shoes), the Reebok Floatride 3 and Adidas Solarboost 19.

I’ve been a huge fan of this series and this is at least my 5th pair of solar glides, but this is my first pair of this version. Overall it’s got the same comfort and stability I have become accustomed to, however there are a couple things related to this design that are causing some issues.

First,...
