Yorkshire-born runner Emile Cairess is arguably one of the hottest talents in British distance running right now. The 25-year old, who is sponsored by Adidas, broke the British 10-mile record in March, and finished 6th overall (including bagging the title of first Brit home) at the London Marathon in April. He recently shared his go-to running shoes with RW.
For easy runs, Cairess opts for the Adidas Boston 10s (the previous iteration of the current 11s).
‘They’ve got a big stack height, which means you don’t tend to feel little stones when you’re in the city,’ said Cairess, who does pretty much all of his training off-road. ‘It’s an unintended benefit because they’re supposed to be for steady and tempo runs on the road rather than easy runs on trails, but they feel great.’

‘Because I don’t weigh much, I do like a shoe that’s a bit lighter,’ he told RW. ‘I love the Takumi and I think everyone should give them a go because they feel like a traditional racer that everyone will feel comfortable with, but they’re a supershoe. You get the best of both worlds.’
