Waiting for another spoiler (or the full box reveal) before I decide if I’ll cancel or not. So, I like how we generally see the full box with enough time to change our minds if we’d like. I’d love it if that pink/coral jacket was in the box, but it looks much too thin, when I think of ‘sweater’ though.
Also, does anybody know when the Boston 6 (shoes in the Fall box) will be added to the Adidas website? I’d really like a pair but can only find them on other sites and in the men version on the official Adidas site. I have a gift code, that I’ve been waiting to use to purchase them from the official site. =(

I emailed them asking for another spoiler because I needed to find out before ordering as I’m not from the US — and they said there would be a sweatshirt in it!

I believe Liz posted full spoilers for the fall box a few weeks before they would start charging and shipping the boxes. I gave people plenty of time to opt out of the box if they didn’t like what was in it.
I’m excited to see what’s going to be in the winter box. Glad they you heard there would be sweatshirt in it though! I wonder if it what Rita is pictured in.. that one looks nice.

I also agree! Not really feeling those shoes. I would love to see what else will be in the box. I’m considering also getting a box as a Christmas gift for my sister. I doubt she will like the shoes but hopefully the rest of the box will be nice especially with Rita Ora being the curator.

I agree! I’d definitely like to see another spoiler. I’m on the fence about the shoes, so I need to see something else before I feel comfortable subbing (especially considering the price of the box).

I was charged $150 on October 1st. I do not know what exactly I was charged for as I thought I would not be getting the September box and it’s too early for the December box. I’ve emailed CS multiple times with no response.
I was so excited to give this subscription a chance since I love to run and I love Adidas but the lack of customer service is disappointing:(
Did anyone else get charged in October and know what’s going on? Atleast a mass email to those charged letting us know what the deal is would be nice… I would hate to have to cancel before receiving even 1 box 🙁

When does the Winter Box Ship Out? I am soooo anxious!!!
Jessica
I received a package finally and all I got a was the ZNE Hoodey (worth $100). I didn’t get any of the other stuff that was said to be in the box. My understanding is that it’s supposed to be a box with 3-5 products. It wasn’t even packaged in the Avenue A box as advertised. I was so excited and now I’m so disappointed. 🙁 What’s going on Adidas?
Christy
Has anyone actually been able to get in touch with Customer Service for this box? I am so upset and no one there is getting back to me. They just charged me $150 for no apparent reason, after they had FINALLY emailed me back saying that something went wrong with updating my CC for the Fall box and that I would not be getting it. What does that even mean? I’ve emailed two different customer service emails and have received no response (it’s been about a week).

Same thing happen to me. I was charged $150 on October 1st. I sent them an email asking if that charge was for the September box (which I thought I wasn’t getting) and I have not received a reply. Very confusing and upsetting.

if they charged you and you haven’t received the box by now I would do a chargeback on the credit card, that will get CS attention

I want to change my billing to another cc. Could not do it on the site. Emailed them and they got back within hours, late at night too, saying the system will not allow to change cc number, that I have to cancel and sign up again. So I told them I will just leave it for now.

I was going to sign up for a second subscription. I really need another pair of shoes. I run in dog agility on dirt, and once the shoes got dirt on it, I won’t wear it anywhere else and the dirt stains the white. I am also banking on getting a jacket for the winter box, and probably long pants. I can make a gift out of the jacket and keep the pants. But unlike before, if you sign up now, they want the payment up front. So I guess I will be waiting closer to the middle of November before signing up another one.

Hello Wendy,
Your card should only be charged when the product is packed and ready to ship.
That’s interesting. When I resigned up (a I skipped/cancelled the fall box), I was told I’d get charged on the 1st of December. Resigned up on the 26th, when I got an e-mail from CS (as I e-mailed them when I cancelled) saying Winter boxes were now available.

Done with this box and their crappy customer service.
E-mailed them numerous times. Finally heard back today,….10 days later.
They basically called me a liar. Saying my shipping address was different than what was clearly evident on my account page!
Too bad the shoes were really great!

I found it extremely easy to request an exchange in sizes. All of my workout/running capris are size L (Brooks, Athleta) so I asked for L. I found the waist too big. Same for the bra. I was sent size M immediately. I updated my sizing on my account.
I would love, love, love to see a foam roller in a future box. I don’t have one and keep hearing about the benefits.

Love the shoe! It sounds like it runs wider than the others? I put in an exchange request for the AdiZero Boston shoes since they were too narrow in the toes but I might stick with my usual size for these based on the reviews.

Still nothing for me, and I tried that phone number. I finally called Adidas’ main number, and they had no further contact information beyond the email I’ve tried three times. It’s just so weird…such good CS for some but nothing for others. This is actually making me want to cut off my active subscription just out of principle. Does anyone from Avenue A still check these forums?

I’ve called and called and have been given multiple numbers to call from adidas because NO ONE knows anything about avenue A there, and still cannot get ahold from anyone from actual avenue A. They won’t respond to any of my emails, or the emails that other adidas reps have sent on behalf of me. Such poor quality customer service. Well….no customer service. I just need an exchange and my order number won’t work -____-. Guess I’m selling this stuff on poshmark because their sizing was really off this box. Disappointed, and most likely unsubscribing on principle.
Adele
This is the number that was in an email response from Adidas about the box. Don’t know if it works: 1-864-587-3206. Please let me know if it does.

kathylun
thank you, I finally got a response to my email, and the phone number was the same 1-864-587-3206. I just wish that was some place on their website because when I called Adidas CS phone number they had no idea what I was talking about.
Guess I am the only one not in love with this box, I thought the shoes would work out but really they aren’t the same as the Boston running shoe I purchased before from Adidas, just not enough forefoot cushioning for me.
Mary
If you value customer service and honesty, DO NOT PURCHASE THIS BOX. I emailed twice asking on the status. My first email was promptly ignored. I was promised it would ship immediately, it did not. Friends have received their boxes, mine has yet to be sent. Customer service ignores your email, if the do respond they ignore your question. Save your money and find a brand with better customer service.

I have been subscribing since the first box and this is the first one with a delivery issue. I live in Florida and the box ships from South Carolina so it usually arrives promptly. I was billed on the 2nd and made an email inquiry this week as to where my box was and was informed they were not shipping yet. This is not a factual statement as I know other people who have them in hand.
The next day I got a shipping notice but the Fedex tracking number was invalid. I checked Fedex tracking manager and I have a box from Spartansburg SC on the Fedex truck to be delivered today but the tracking number is different. I have been so pleased with these boxes that I am going to cut them some slack until my box arrives (hopefully today.)
It does kind of irk me that they are sending winter spoilers and making a big deal about the winter box when I still have not received the fall box.
Reply
Fiona
I am still waiting on my fall box too. I wish they shipped earlier in the month.
The shoes are ok – I am honestly more interested in the other items in the box. Even though I don’t need the shoes I feel like it is still a good deal. Fall is my first box. Excited to see what winter brings. Hopefully something really spectacular. I think it is hard to top the past two boxes (before this fall box).
I am really super particular about my running shoes and would love it if they gave a couple shoe options (such as pick fashion shoe, general workout, sandals, running, etc ). Meanwhile I will stick with my Hoku One Ones for running and the Adiddas when I want to look cute. :).

I think I’m the only one who isn’t living the shoe. It’s okay, but not really my style. I do love that it’s gray, though! I’m holding off for another spoiler, and crossing my fingers for an awesome jacket, hoodie (that’s not a white stormtrooper hoodie!) or bag.

Is there any way you can opt out of the shoes? I have a pair of shoes that I wear all the time for working out and wouldn’t want the tennis shoes every quarter. Does anyone have any information on this?!! :/
Reply
Justme
No. Aside from sizes, there is no customization. Wearing only one pair to workout wears out your shoes quickly; it’s good to rotate your tennis shoes out.
Or you could always gift or swap them!
Reply
Gina
Yes, never wear the same pair of tennis shoes two days in a row! By allowing them to entirely dry between each wear, you will get more wears out of them!

I really hope my Fall box ships soon. My account page said my box delivery date was TODAY, but it hasn’t even shipped yet! I’m going on vacation next week and was really hoping to have the shoes by then to take with me.

The Adidas rep commented further down that they intend to ship by 9/16. Would be really nice if they actually communicated to people instead of relying on comments on a blog (no offense) or better yet adjust the information on their own webpage to correctly reflect the shipping information.

Super excited – love this subscription & really hoping for one of rita ora’s collab pieces but hate seeing a winter spoiler before my fall box has even shipped.
I second from a previous post that as a subscriber, I don’t like seeing the full Fall review so early before my box even ships. I like a bit of the surprise factor and only seeing 1 or maybe 2 spoilers before.
Otherwise, great sub – keep it up! Really forcing me to workout more with all of these stylish outfits.

My box arrived today. I was 100% sure that the XL would be too small and I’d have to put the clothes away for the future. I wear an 18W pant, a 1X top, and a 40DD bra. The XL sports bra and leggings fit perfectly! It was the flowy tank, surprisingly, that was a bit tight. The hoodie is a slimmer rather than boxier cut but does fit. I also really like that the leggings have a drawstring waist so as I slim down I can tighten them up. If you’re on the bottom edge of plus sizes and think an XL won’t fit, you might be wrong! I’m really glad I took the risk and tried this box.
Reply
Melinda
I too was worried xl was not going to be big enough but it was! Well the tank was too tight but everything else was ok. I wear a 14-16 on bottom but im a 42B-C 2x top. Unfortunately, I hate the color of the bra top and capris so Im trying to sell them lol. I love the shoes. They fit like a glove!
ValerieAnne
I didn’t get a box for Fall (I decided to pause my account until Winter) but with my previous boxes, the L fit me but because of how it fit, I opted to exchange them for an XL. As they were a bit tighter than I like my clothing, but they do fit. In “normal” clothes, I wear either an XL or 2XL top (depending on the brand/material), 18/20 pants (I’m petite, so wear them in Petite sizes, which are still too long for m inseam lol), and am a 48D bra. So, even being plus sized everywhere else, the XL fits me like I like in Adidas’ items.
Whit
Ditto! I was pleasantly surprised with the fit. Like you, the tank was the only thing that I can wear, but I would never purchase on my own bc it’s a little too snug for the style.
Marina
I mentioned it to a rep if they had any plans to expand on the sizing to XXL/2XL (when I was following up on the shipping of my last box). My sister would love to subscribe but she wears an XXL.
The rep’s response was that based on the success of this box, they were working to expanding the boxes. It was vague, but I hope they do expand the sizing up to XXL (or 3XL).
Reply
Whit
DITTO! Everyone deserves to look great working out–as someone on the cusp (I’ve been on both sides of XL)–it is very discouraging for someone who is an XXL (or higher) who wants to work out and be a little healthier to not have workout gear to wear that makes her feel great. Excluding larger sizes kinda sends the message, “our stuff is only for people who are already living the fit lifestyle,” rather than an inclusive message, “you look great, now go meet your goals.” Sorry so cheesy!
Reply
Gina
I 100% agree that they should expand to size offerings, but I wouldn’t expect it out of the adidas subscription box when adidas does not currently offer sizes larger than XL (which is stupid) in nearly all of their women’s clothing (with the exception of some track suits I believe).
