Cons
- Not the most cost-friendly running shoes for beginners
- Lack of support in the midfoot for some runners with shallow arches
This is a place where Solar Boost is better than any other Boost upper, to a point.
Tech Fit is an elasticized stuff that emerges non-porous and robust that offers a customized fit.
Tailored fibre placement is another new Adidas technology that makes a web of knit fibres along the midfoot with a locked-down fit.
The upper may cause a problem in the heel cup, which employs Adidas Fit Counter technology to decrease force on the Achilles tendon.

Sole unit
The boost midsole is supported with the Torsion system and solar propulsion rails along the upper sides.
The Solar Boost has 28mm of heel cushioning and eighteen in the forefoot on paper.
But, running on pavement, this forefoot cushioning seems to compress and feel unsubstantial at more considerable distances.
The outsole is Continental rubber and has an excellent grip and surface place in all situations.
This is a link that I hope Adidas continues, as this Continental outsole seems to last well over five hundred miles.

Weight
The weight is 9.6 ounces for men and7.8 ounces for ladies. It is fantastic to view the Solar Boost weight less than 10 ounces based on the upper’s shape. The Boost heel is exceptionally light and the upper, so do not guess a heavy-fitting shoe regardless of how it looks.
Other sneakers that target distance running might be weightless and feel lighter.
You can still have that feeling of being light for the Solar Boost while having sufficient material around your feet for relaxation and support.
With that being said, the Adidas Solar boost seems to have the best combination of lightweight and protection.
