Today, adidas introduces the new colorway of the Adizero Boston 13, following its debut at the 2025 Boston Marathon in April. The Adizero Boston 13 is engineered for consistent speed and endurance and is the go-to shoe for both training and racing for runners seeking to improve time over mid to long distances.
First introduced in 1980, the Boston has become an iconic model with a rich history in performance running. Now on its 13th iteration, the Adizero Boston features adidas’ latest technologies, whilst staying true to its heritage – a symbol of adidas’ lasting commitment to help runners chase their fastest times in training.
The latest model in the Adizero Boston range is another example of adidas’ continued commitment to creating the best products with and for athletes. Alongside its signature ENERGYRODS 2.0 and engineered mesh upper, key technology and design updates to the model include:
-
INCREASED LIGHTSTRIKE PRO: 13.8% more Lightstrike Pro foam makes the midsole softer and more comfortable than its predecessor.
-
ENHANCED COMFORT: Tuned with a padded tongue and collar, the shoe provides a more comfortable feeling for runners on top of the foot compared to the previous model.
-
LIGHTTRAXION OUTSOLE: New for Adizero Boston models – and first seen in the marathon racer Adizero Adios Pro 4 – the LIGHTTRAXION patterned outsole construction is designed to reduce weight without sacrificing grip, by strategically placing it where it is needed the most.
The Adizero Boston 13 in flash aqua is available from June 10, 2025 in-store, on adidas.co.za and via the adidas app and retails at R3299. Follow the conversation on Instagram and X/Twitter using #AdizeroBoston13 and @adidasrunning.
