Is anyone very familiar with Adidas products?  I am wondering how much difference there is between the different sizes of tank and slides.  The tank is a bit snug in the bust and the slides are a large (but not falling off large) on me.  Not sure whether to try to get different sizes or if they would then be too small.  (For some reason Adidas is not carried in stores locally though I am not in a rural area.  I wasn't able to find anything 'Adidas' in four five shops I tried so I gave up and just guessed--hard because I don't usually wear work out gear.)  Thanks!
I'm not that familiar with Adidas, only what I've received in the past two boxes. I think their sizing is maybe a little on the smaller side although the slides seem to be bigger. Maybe because they are slides and the design of it. They are a little big on me too but I'm going to keep them. I'm afraid that sizing down would be too small.

 
Yesssss!!!! If that's not the black shoe I posted when I was speculating about this box, it's close!  SO EXCITED!!!  Something like this has been on my wishlist for months but I couldn't justify buying more shoes :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

The fall spoiler is the AdiZero Boston Shoe in black, which is $120 and is not currently available on the adidas website. 

Here are some details and reviews from runner's world - sounds like a great shoe!  Love the gray/purple version in their image too.

MSA also said that the fall box is curated by Kate Citron and Rebecca Willa Davis, not Rita Ora.  Guess Rita was just doing an Avenue A or regular adidas commercial after all?  Here are their well+good bios:

I wonder if Rita is spring. Who knows when the videos are filmed. Like Morgan Brian's had to be done for a long time before that because she was out with the national team. Not saying she couldn't have done it while out with them, just that it seems likely it was older.

 
I just received my box - yay!  I definitely need to resize the shorts and possibly the sneakers but am having problems with the exchange form (according to the site my order number from the email does not exist).  Hopefully Customer Service can assist.

Have the same issue about order number.

How does their sizing run? According to their website a small = size 8-10. Do you feel like the items fit kind of equal to the numeric numbers?

For this box, I thought the sizing ran small on the shorts and shirt. I ordered a M (12-14) and they were more consistent with a size 10. The slides are rounded up in whole numbers so they will most likely be slightly big for everyone.  The sneakers for me are running true to size although one foot is slightly tighter than the other (kind of oddly so).

 
I got my box this morning. Needless to say the packaging did not survive long in my hands (my fastest time opening a box yet!). My humble two cents:

  • Love the shoes- quite comfortable and lightweight.
  • Tank top and shorts are cute, lightweight, and feel very comfortable on.
  • Excited to try out the tracker and compare it to my Fitbit Charge HR.
  • Headband- I needed one so I'm glad that they included this in the box.
  • Slides- I usually wear 9.5 in shoes but they sent me size 10 slides (I guess these don't come in half sizes). Way too big for me so I emailed them this morning about exchanging them for size 9. Received a response a few hours later that they placed a new order for size 9 slides for me and that I can keep the original pair. Their customer service is stellar!
Gee, I wonder what I will be donning for my evening jog tonight...

Last but not least, didn't have to wait long at all for spoilers for the Fall box. Yay!

I was really confused about the sizing too for the clothing so I stopped by Macy's last month and tried on some of the adidas merchandise to get an idea about the sizes and fit. This really helped me out a lot since I have a horrible track record with online orders and sizing...

Please post the email you used because I didn't get a response to my email from yesterday.  Thank you!

I actually went through their website (logged into my account, then clicked on the "Request an Exchange" link, spent 10 minutes trying to figure out the order number field, filled out the form, and hit send). The email response that I got came from: [email protected]. If going thru their website didn't work, then definitely go thru the above email address and use the subject line: Avenue A Exchange to get their attention. Hope you get a response soon!

I think you had the same issue I did with order number so you have to write Customer Service.  I actually heard back within an hour of the email so I would definitely write them again. Are you using the avenue a email address?

Thanks.  What is the trick for the order number field?  It kept saying mine was invalid (and, truly, the number in my order confirmation email did not meet the criteria given for that field).
