Our take on the adidas Break Start Shoes

The adidas Break Start is a low-top lifestyle sneaker that borrows its look from classic basketball shoes. It pairs a synthetic leather upper with a rubber cupsole and a foam insole, and adidas lists Boost in its feature set. It is a casual, budget-friendly shoe rather than a performance basketball model. The rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 2,300 ratings.

Questions and answers

Is the adidas Break Start good for playing basketball?
No. It is a lifestyle sneaker inspired by basketball shoes, with a rubber cupsole and foam insole. It lacks the cushioning and support of a real basketball shoe.
Does the Break Start have Boost cushioning?
Adidas lists Boost among its highlighted features, but the product details do not specify where it is used. Treat it as a light cushioning claim rather than a full Boost midsole.
How does the Break Start fit?
It has a regular fit with a lace closure. Some owners say it runs slightly narrow, so wide feet may want to size up.
What is the upper made of?
The upper is synthetic leather, which keeps the price down and is easy to wipe clean. It is not genuine leather.
Is the Break Start a low-top or high-top?
It is a low-top with a low shaft height. That makes it easy to pair with jeans and shorts.
When is the Break Start cheapest?
Prices on this kind of adidas lifestyle sneaker tend to dip during seasonal sales and back-to-school events. Check the price history on this page before buying.
