Our Verdict

adidas Hyperboost Edge

adidas Hyperboost Run

The adidas Hyperboost Edge is the better-cushioned sibling of the adidas Hyperboost Run. Both shoes are about the same weight, but the Edge's taller stack allows it to absorb more impact, so runners who land with a lot of force will be better protected. Conversely, the lower stack of the Run makes it more stable, so it's the better choice for runners who prioritize a steady ride. The Edge has a higher retail price, so runners who don't need as much cushioning will be fine with the Run.
