Hmm, not hundred per cent sure but possibly ultraboost. I'm a neutral runner so neither heavy on the toe nor heel.

I think “neutral” tends to refer to pronation - side to side movement of your foot. Whereas mid foot / heel strike is about where you land.
Easy to check though if you have a look at your shoes and see where they wear. A heel striker will see lots of wear on the heel (obviously!) while mid foot will have minimal wear on the heel. My shoe wear first on the outside ball area - behind the little toe, which is the first thing to hit the ground, for example.

Which boosts?
I've just replaced a couple of pairs of very worn boston 6s with NB fuelcell rebels. Only managed a couple of light runs in them (before injury has sidelined me) but they felt like a lighter, bouncier, faster boston. Worth a look if youre coming from the boston boost - and they're reasonably priced at around 70 quid at the moment.
They are much more midfoot shoe though with the heel cut away though, so if you're a heel striker then likley best to look elsewhere
