    got my Boston 8' yesterday...not a fan.I only ran 5km, so it will take a while to get a better feel.
    Found the lacing odd, not alot of cushioning, and loud (that is my running style)
    Having said that I did a sub 20 5km in the heat !

    For sale....
    I did another 5km in the Boston 8, I really dont like them !!
    The look, the fit, the sound !
    Not for me..
    Back to Kinvara 11's, on deporvillage ...

    I love my Boston 8s, if I had to pick 1 shoe to do all my runs in it would be the Boston 8,

    I couldnt stand the Pegasus 36 I had, gave them away to a pal after less than 50k I’d say, different strokes for different folks I suppose

    I recently got my first pair of Boston 8s, I am a comfortable size 10 in all shoes with plenty of room. But I found the Boston’s really tight across the top of my foot, so much that I don’t pull the laces tight. I do like them as a shoe but the lacing seems wrong. Test drove Last night new Pegasus’s 36 that I picked up for 59 euro and they are fab.

    New Balance Beacon v3 out today. Not the fresh Foam X like the NB1080v10 (super squishy cushion easy show) but I'm on a 2nd pair of Beacon v2 and I've loved them.

    €120 not bad plus NBGIFT4YOU gets you another €12 off. €108 for a brand new model. https://www.newbalance.ie/en/pd/fresh-foam-beacon-v3/MBECNV3-31106.html?dwvar_MBECNV3-31106_style=MBECNGB3#style=MBECNGB3&width=D

    The nike birthday discount lasts for 3 months now, assuming it's some temporary Covid related promotion to increase sales.

    Look very similar to the V2 - any known changes or good reviews ?
    I have V2 with about 400K on them, which I mostly like. Sole durability is not great.

    There will be more and better reviews soon in terms of detail but seems much the same shoe. Interesting I have 500k and 850k on 2 pairs and sole durability has been ok. Given I am heavy on shoes and the fresh foam X on the 1080v10 got about 400K

    I ordered them aswell (No discount though:mad:), Looking forward to trying them. Reviews are good

    Have mine a few weeks. Find them tighter on the box than the 36's but they are certainly bouncier. Nice shoe, prefer it to the 36.

    I'd say it has indeed to do with the fact mine are youths runners & not adults so probably won't compare them either. My 2 pegs 36 are also youths and up there with the most comfy runners i have ever bought. I checked online and there doesn't seem to be anywhere that gives the difference between the youths & adults like other companies. As I said it works for me!

    Just got my pair delivered, tried them on and not too sure as the length is about 1/2 size too long compared to the Peg 36's.

    I thought the same, they do look longer than my current P36, i had to check i ordered the same size which i did. I put the two on and tightened up the laces, they fitted perfectly. I'll test them out Wednesday.

    I went out earlier today wearing my P37, i found them very comfortable, so soft and lightweight, you would hardly feel the impact from the ground. The last k i started to feel rubbing on the inside of my foot arch - no blister, just some redness thankfully. I'll wear these now for a few days and break them in as they say, i'll alternate between these and P36, it maybe a little early but i would definitely recommend these to anyone thinking or looking to buy, the most comfortable and lightweight running trainer i have owned to date.
