Adidas: Avenue A Summer 2016 Box – FULL SPOILERS!!

had a chance to deal with customer service already and they are awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got my box yesterday and if the adidas people are reading this…..I LOVE MY BOX! By far, my favorite subscription box EVER!

When I first tried to order this box it told me I would get the box after this one so I changed my sizes(before completing transaction) and it let me have this one as available. Not sure about it now as my email won’t work to log in at the site. Funny because it is the one they emailed me at to tell me they were getting my box ready to be shipped.
FYI If you get the next box it will be a totally different box with a different curator not this same box. I am so sorry some of you are not getting the box you want. I agree that charging you now for the next box is very concerning but if it is any comfort you have your box reserved and will definitely get that one.

Finally!! A tracking number and Tuesday delivery. I put 8.5 down as my shoe size and I’m really hoping they give me size 8 in the slides because I assume they’re just whole sizes. Fingers crossed!

I signed up on Monday. The original delivery date said 6/17. This morning I got FedEx tracking saying it will arrive Tuesday.

This is all types of depressing –

I have no idea when it’s coming, when it was shipped or even if it was shipped.
The tracking number can’t be found because it doesnt exist.

What sucks is that I’m almost at the end and now this mess.

I hope this gets resolved soon – my level of tolerance is fading. ?

Oh, and the hairband is a wide band, super soft material with a rubber padding on the bottom to prevent slippage. It’s very high quality – I was thinking it would be a skinny little thing..NOPE!

I received a shipment notice from avenue a on Wednesday, saying I receive my box on friday. However, i checked fed ex this morning and it still says “label created”. I emailed avenue a this morning and they told me that my shipment would arrive today and i must have checked fed ex between updates. Fast forward to 3:30, still no box . i called fed ex and it’s telling me that the only information they have is that a label has been created… What the heck is going on?? Is anyone else having this problem? I just emailed customer service again…..sigh…..i just want my box!

Just received my box and it’s love at first sight! The shoes are amazing! Taking them with me on my vacay to San Diego next week…yay!

Just got mine. The slides look so huge on my feet and they look like they run about a half size large. Anyone else feel that way? They are comfortable though. Also, my white tank top has the ‘Supernova’ that’s on the back bottom side printed on the underside of the tank, so that you only see it when it’s inside out. Weird manufacturing mistake or is this really supposed to be like that? Anyway, I really love the box. Can’t wait for fall!

Also ordered this on Monday but no tracking yet… Cross my fingers I’ll get it soon. The wait is killing me!

I hate you Allison!
Joking!
I’m just jealous right now! So . . . very . . . jelly. 🙁

I just got mine, like 30 min ago (I’m wfh today) and I LOVE this. The shorts are a bit short (but I’m always self-conscious in shorts anyway) but everything else is wonderful. The sandals feel like walking on clouds. The sneakers are lightweight and very comfortable. The tank top fits perfectly (size XL) and the watch looks really cool, but I haven’t tried it out yet. I LOVE this.

I only subscribed Monday but they charged my credit card right away so I thought I was good to go. My account had said to expect delivery today; just checked and now it says 31 August delivery! Fingers crossed that’s just a mistake? Anyone else?

Yay, mine is finally almost here ? Even though I will sell the fit smart watch on ebay, I am super excited for the shoes and the slides (big feet issues?) my new favorite box, I wonder if they will be able to keep this up? For one I hope they have a long successful run with this box!!

Hi Gals,

So I got my tracking email yesterday – but when I click the FedEx tracking link, I keep getting thst the tracking number can’t be found. I was told by Adidas customer service that since the tracking number is new – I should give it 24 to 48 hrs. Or most likely, it’ll be there late yesterday evening. I just check and nothing! I’ll give it time but is anyone having this problem?

holy smokes this is probably the best sub out there right now. I subbed as soon as I saw what I missed for the spring box. The value is crazy good, which makes me think…my only negative thought is the quality…I’m wondering if it’s more sample quality? How have items from the first box held up? Anyway, that’s just my skeptical thoughts and I’ll be able to judge tomorrow when it arrives. Can’t wait!

I got my Avenue A box and posted it on Instagram. Still freaking out. Best subscription box ever. I put in XL for my sizes and I’ve lost weight so the shorts are too big. Oops. Maybe they’ll exchange them? You’ll love the box ladies!!!

I am so glad I’m not alone in obsessively checking for spoilers. I loved the first box, and was not expecting another pair of sneakers. Can’t wait to get my box tomorrow!

Found this in the comments section of the refinery29 article on this box, “Hello from adidas Avenue A, we…can tell you that Spring 2016, Summer 2016, Fall 2016 and Winter 2016 editions all include a shoe!” All of the boxes this year will have a shoe! How exciting!

Already sent Liz the screenshot I took of the comment 🙂

I have been liking all the boxes and caved on this one! I need some motivation to hit the gym and the trails this summer and a great running outfit and tracking watch should do the trick. I ordered and cancelled both today hoping to try this box and then decide if I need new workout clothes in the fall. I just did a closet cleanout and have WAY too many unworn workout clothes but do not have may running shorts, I lost my fitbit charger and need new running shoes so this is a great box for me.

OMG! LIZ!!! I’m so over you.. LOL!!! I just ordered this.. I couldn’t resist!??? I’m thinking about dropping some of my boxes, I’d NEVER think of getting rid of. Like PSMH, FFF, Birchbox..?Sephora..? (after being on the waitlist forever) &/or Allure.. I have SO many beauty products, it’s kind of embarrassing. I don’t know though. I’d probably have FOMO big time! Right after I subscribed to Avenue A, I was going through my emails & I noticed I had a 30% off coupon from Adidas “Friends and Family Sale” sitting in my inbox from yesterday. I sure hope I didn’t miss out on an opportunity to save on my first box. I just emailed Adidas asking about it. Waiting to hear… I did however, receive an immediate confirmation from Adidas upon ordering the Avenue A box, that was so interesting. I’ll copy it here:
“We have received your reservation for your Avenue A subscription box.

Your Visa will be charged on or around June 16, 2016 prior to the shipping of your box. Your Avenue A box will then be delivered around June 17, 2016. Note that your credit card statement may show a pre-authorization from SAFECART.COM*ADIDAS prior to billing. However, your account will not be billed until June 16, 2016.”

Are they going to run it on over to my house tomorrow? LOL!! So funny! In the end, I’m glad you did the “Spoiler” on this box. It looks FANTASTIC!! It has the best value I’ve seen. It’s also different than my usual boxes & very useful, as it is time to lose all this weight, post-failed back surgery and a year of epidural steroid shots, that made me eligible to be an actual FLOAT in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade, this year! Time to get to work!!????? So.. I’m not mad at you Liz! I appreciate you, each & every day.. I truly look forward to your daily emails! xoxo?

If anyone wants to swap their size 8,8.5, or 9 sandals with me let me know!

Is there anyone who has not received shipping info? I’ve been charged but have not received any other info.

Okay, I just ordered. I have been wanting a watch style fitness tracker for a while, so half price on the tracker, $10 off on the shoes, the rest is just a bonus! Yea for spoilers!
