Adidas Terrex Two Boa
One of the top brands on the market when it comes to anything athletic is Adidas. It is popular all around the world and among many groups of people. Not only are its clothes, shoes, and other gear high quality, but people all around the world and of all interests like them, too. Even people who do not participate in sports or outdoor activities prefer Adidas for their lounge clothes and for their sneakers/running shoes. Adidas is especially known for providing fashion-forward sportswear that has a slim fit and that can easily be worn anywhere- whether it be on the hiking trail or grocery shopping.
Adidas shoes are also very popular both for everyday wear and for people who enjoy participating in sports or outdoor activities. The brand has also released trail running shoes, which unsurprisingly have received mostly positive reviews from people who purchased them. One of the higher-rated trail running shoes created by Adidas was the Terrex Two Boa. The most interesting feature of these shoes is the Boa lacing system, which basically a dial right next to the lacing system that allows you to adjust how tight or loose you want the laces to be. This means that you will have control over how comfortable you want the shoes to be, and this feature aids in the overall comfort of the shoes.
Overall, most people were pleased with how these shoes performed. Many agree that the upper is made out of a breathable material, the shoes are durable, and they have great midsoles and outsoles. As with a lot of Adidas products, these shoes are also available in several different colors and look great on many different people.
- The Boa lacing system allows you to adjust how loose or tight you want the shoes to be
- The upper of the shoes are made with a highly breathable material
- These shoes are meant to handle many different types of trails, making them versatile for different types of terrain
- The outsole of these shoes provides a great grip
- The midsole has great cushioning and responsiveness
-
Some people complained that the shoes are not too comfortable when they initially purchased them, and the shoes needed to be broken in
-
Some people also complained that the tongue of the shoes slides around quite a lot
Outsole
One thing that some people noted, however, is that these cutouts cause the shoe to not offer as much protection as others. They do not provide as much protection for your feet when running or hiking on rocky surfaces, which is essential so that you can avoid possible injury. So, some people said that these shoes are not the best to wear if you intend to be going out on rocky terrain.
However, the shoes provide great traction thanks to the rubber outsole and the lugs, and people said that these shoes are perfect to wear on virtually any type of terrain, including wet and dry surfaces. You won’t have to worry about slippage whatsoever. Lots of people who tried the shoe said it has one of the best outsoles out of all the different running shoes they tried.
Midsole
Upper
First, the upper is made out of a breathable mesh material that allows your feet to be kept cool and dry throughout the course of your run. Many people praised the upper for the amount of breathability and comfort that it allows.
The other interesting part of the upper is the Boa lacing system. This is not a common feature in many running shoes. It is essentially a dial that is hooked to the shoe’s laces and you adjust the dial in accordance with how loose or tight you want the shoes to be. People did not notice problems with this technology itself, but some agreed that this might not be the best way for the lacing system to work in a pair of trail shoes since the laces won’t allow for the same level of adjustment as regular shoe laces would.

Comfort
However, some people did say that the shoes needed to be broken into before they took the shoes out onto the trail due to the fact that they were uncomfortable the first time they were worn. Also, the shoes are particularly wide- which is great for people who have wider feet, but not for people with standard-sized feet.
The toe box of the shoe is also very wide due to the fact that the Boa lacing system does not go down far enough to allow that area of the shoes to be adjusted.
So, if you have wider feet, these shoes are likely to be perfect for you. But if you have narrow feet, you might find that your toes especially will be swimming inside the shoes.
Style
That goes for these Adidas shoes as well. Most people agreed that these shoes have a great look and that they were able to wear these shoes almost anywhere they pleased. Most people don’t want to have to shell out money for several different pairs of shoes; they like to have shoes that will be versatile enough, both in looks and in performance abilities, that they can essentially wear wherever they’d like. And these Adidas shoes provide just that.
The shoes have a sleek design with the Boa lacing system dial on the side next to the laces. The word “terrex” is written right above the heel. There are several different colored accents on the shoes, which depend ultimately on which color you choose to purchase, such as the three lines on the side next to the word “terrex” and stripes on the midfoot.
As far as colors go, you do have several different color options to choose from, so you will be bound to find something that you like. Some of these choices including white with black and gray accents, black, light blue with green, white, and black accents, pink, blue, light blue with orange accents, and more. While the color range is not as extensive as with other brands, you still have several options to choose from other than the standard black color.
