Brand new, out of the box, I put 15 miles on a pair today. 

I was going steady having done a 13 followed by a 10 on consecutive days, yet still managed 15 in 1:50. I'm not saying this was all due to bounce, but they felt good. I am a forefoot runner and still felt a difference in the material. Having run in Free's all winter they felt very squidgy... in a good way.

I'm going to have to get used to the lacing... I could only achieve too tight or too loose. 

Funny sizing though. I'm a UK 9 in Asics/Brooks and a UK 9.5 in Nikes. I'm a UK 10 in these for length and width. The fit of the upper is amazing!

I am new to Adidas... After 1 run I am almost converted!

I have an issue with blisters... I've used just about every shoe and sock possible. I've had several shoe fittings and played with tight fit and loose fit aswell as what the guy in the shop said was perfect.

I've used Compeed, no compeed... Vaseline, no vaseline... Mono skin socks, twin skin...

Today I think i found a solution... 

I put a pair of my wives 'pop socks' on (for blokes - these are made of nylon 'tights' material). These were tight - she's a 7, I'm a 9! I then put a pair of hilly mono skins over the top. Effectively my own version of a twin skin sock. 15 miles later and NO BLISTERS!!

Had to share... Any other tips for blisters??
