My tracking states that my box is out for delivery for today. According to the tracking info, it weighs 5.2 pounds. It should be there when I get home from work. I’m excited!

Liz Cadman

Yay! Let us know what you get! 🙂 So excited!

Dom

It has arrived and I love it! You can click my name to see a quick picture.

SPOILER ALERT!

Everything came in a very large black Adidas box (like they picture on the website). The box is actually opened like a drawer, which was colored to match the contents. Inside were two divided compartments, one for the shoes and the other for the rest of the items. It also came with a card detailing the items inside. From the looks of it, everyone will be getting the same colors. They don’t list the retail prices on the card, so I used the retail prices from Adidas’s website.

Here’s what I got:
-Adidas Pureboost X Running Shoes ($120) – The spoiler item they released. I quickly tried them on and they feel great! The size was accurate and they felt comfortable from the start. I needed a new pair of athletic shoes badly, which made my decision to get this box.
-Kanoi Rucpack Dye Jacket (?) – Initially, I thought this jacket was thin and a little on the not-so-warm side. But upon closer inspection, it’s meant to be able to turn inside out and zip itself into a pocket for super portability. In the picture I’ve attached, I’ve zipped it into it’s pocket form (like a Transformer?).
-Stella McCartney Adidas Big Sport Bag ($190) – This thing is HUGE. I can probably fit every gym essential I own inside of it (which, admittedly, I don’t have much of). It’s well made and and seems pretty sturdy.
-Supernova Melange Bra ($40) – I haven’t had the chance to try this out yet, but I like how soft the fabric is. It has a good amount of stretch and some light padding.
-Adistar Three-Quarter Tights ($90) – I love three quarter length athletic tights! I haven’t had the chance to try these on yet either, but they seem to be of great quality.

I wasn’t able to find the price of the rucpack jacket online, but the total retail value of all the other items come out to be $440. I’m really happy with this box and I am planning to stay on for the next quarter.

Mary

I received a tracking number today from Adidas Avenue A by email and my box is due to arrive in “2-3 days” via FedEx. Yay!

Anne

Just logged in to my account and my delivery day is now saying April 24th!!! It was March 24th… then April 8th… I know this is a new sub but not terribly happy at how this is starting out. I subbed on February 10 and paid on March 10th so that will be 6 weeks after payment (not the 3-4 I saw advertised). I was hoping to have the shoes to break in in time for my two big races this year, 4/17 and 5/14. I really, really hope that’s a typo and my box arrives closer to the originally advertised March 24th ship date. :o/

Mary

My account also says next delivery date is April 24, 2016, but that contradicts the email I received today with FedExtracking number. Hope you get your tracking number soon.

Rain

My delivery date is April 6, I’m so excited.

Anne

Nevermind. Just logged in to my account and saw that it changed from 3/24 to 4/8. 🙁

Jace

Mine too! I was so bummed! I really was hoping it would be March since that’s what they said earlier. Now I have to wait 2 more weeks. They updated the FAQs to state that shipment would be 3 to 4 weeks after payment.

Anne

Where did you see your delivery date?

Anne

So excited for this box!! My birthday is the 29th so I’m really hoping it shows up in time (and contains some awesome stuff – race season starts in April for me!)

Amanda Larson

I signed up too late to get this box. So disappointed

Lauren

I signed up but didn’t receive an email confirmation. Did you guys get one?

Jace

Yes, I got one. Maybe it’s in your spam folder? But you should be able to go to your profile and find out your subscription status.

Bex

I want to sign up but I am confused about billing. Do we get charged now with the box shipping 3/24 or do we get charged 3/10 which is the normal billing date?

Jace

We should get charged on the 10th of March and shipping should start on the 24th. But they put a small amount (a hold of $2.95) on my card, but it should fall off – as with most companies to make sure that it’s valid account. Hopefully this helps. 🙂

Oh no. I had to get one. Looking forward to it!
I think there is a reason this it is called an addiction.

Lauren

Does anyone have an idea how the clothes fit? I typically wear a 10, but that’s a size M according to their fit chart. In exercise clothes I usually wear a Large (pants).

I would check their charts again and look fo the US/UK/EU conversion because I think their default sizing is UK, which would make a 10 a US size 6.

Mish

I called and they said it’s US sizing.

Randi

Yep… pretty sure I just signed up for this.
I need a new pair of shoes anyways and the only thing better than a new pair of shoes is a new pair of shoes that are part of a subscription!!

Crystal

YES! I am so excited. I’ve been wanting another fitness box! Bianca Jade really is the only one out there that fits my needs. Perfect!

Anne

Anyone else have experience with sizing on the shoes (either specifically these or Adidas in general)? I noticed one commenter wore true to size. I found a blog post where the woman went down an entire size for these. I usually wear 9s for my Nikes and anywhere from 9-91/2 in other shoes.

Christen

I wear a 9 in regular shoes, and always have to size up to a 9.5 for running shoes. That’s been my experience for Adidas as well as several other brands of sneakers.

Samantha

I don’t have these shoes, but I do run in Adidas shoes (Glide Boost 7). In normal shoes I wear a 7.5, but in running/tennis shoes I nearly always have to size up to an 8.5. In these I wear an 8. I tried on a few other Adidas when I was getting fitted for my shoes and I consistently wore an 8 across the board. I hope this helps!

Lucy

I wear a 7.5-8 and tried these on at the store and found that a 7.5 fits well and the 8 is way too big. You don’t want to go bigger in this style because of the stretchy mesh upper. For reference, I wear an 8 in Nike Free Run (and most brands for heels, flats, booties), and a 7.5 in Nike Roshe and Toms.

I “had” to subscribe to this box too although I’m beginning to suspect that my mailman is planning an intervention 🙂

Marna

I know my substitute mail lady wants to. Every time she is on my route she has to deliver my boxes.

Amanda

I’m compelled to do this. I LOVE running shoes. Even if sometimes they are more a fashion accessory than their intended purpose… I may not be able to resist. Happy birthday to me?

JellyBean

LOL! Happy birthday to you…and to me, too! I’m signing up as a birthday gift to myself. I started running a few months ago, so it’s also a way to keep motivated. Aaaannnd…justified. ?

Amanda

Isn’t amazing how easily that justification happens? And checking out this blog has only helped me find fellow justifiers. UNITE!

Shay

I love Adidas! I need those shoes in my life and I think I’ll be splurging on this box <3

Miccarty

I ordered. I needed a new pair of running shoes for spring anyway, so it’s fairly low risk, given the good reviews of the shoes anyway. Fingers crossed for fit. I usually size up a full size in running shoes, so I did that here. I haven’t worn Asics in a long time though, so fingers crossed.

Mish

I think it included Adidas (not Asics). I can’t wait for this to ship. Great for my “need to start running” goals.

Miccarty

Sorry for the typo! Too early 🙂

Bish

I don’t if you all noticed, but they show the shoes you will get in this video: https://www.adidasavenuea.com/latest-edition
Fits with the Pantone colors for 2016, I ordered since the shoes are almost worth the cost plus we get at least 2 more items!

Christen

I signed up for this earlier tonight and just noticed a charge from “www.safecart.com” on my card. When I went to their website, it traced it back to this subscription. Was anyone else charged by them? Is this normal? When I do a google search on that site, a lot of scam complaints come up.

Mish

Same. the website actually goes to them after you click to purchase. I’m sure it’s the platform running it for them.

Liz Cadman

Yes – that’s what I was charged by as well. It came up with my PayPal checkout – it looks to be legit. Hope that helps! 🙂

Christen

Okay, I feel better now. Thank you!

Virginia

Oh dear … their marketing was so good that I signed up. I don’t run and I barely walk the dog. 🙂

Kristin

????

Liz Cadman

Haha! Love this! 🙂

AMH

Liz, if you’re still doing the month’s best comments, this looks like a contender!

Kendra

I have been needing a new pair of running shoes for Spring anyway, so this was perfect timing! I can’t wait to check this box out.

Valerie

I would love to subscribe to this one but Im a little on the fence with the color of the footwear we would receive. I do like the Pro Boost X sneakers but not too sure if I want to risk $150 and not like the color.

Jace

I am sooo excited! Can’t believe I took the plunge, as Popsugar is my most expensive sub. But I planned on buying new running shoes…. That’s my excuse and I am going for it!?

Randi

Wow, this box looks really good! I’m so tempted!
I don’t run, but I should work out more than I currently do… maybe this would help 🙂

Joy

She also mentions Stella McCartney in the video, so I wonder if one of the other items will be one of her fitness bags or skorts?

Liz Cadman

That would be AMAZING!!

joy

It WAS amazing, but I was still feeling so burned on the PSMH holiday LE that I decided to wait. Regretting that decision. ?
