FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for marathon running?
While the DREAMSTRIKE midsole offers good cushioning, these trainers are best suited for daily training and distances up to a half-marathon. For full marathon distances, a shoe with more specialized, long-distance cushioning might be preferred.
What is the weight of the adidas Supernova Glide Trainers?
The trainers weigh approximately 240 grams.
What is the midsole drop on these trainers?
The midsole drop is 8 mm, with a heel height of 35 mm and a forefoot height of 27 mm.
Can I use these trainers for gym workouts?
These trainers are primarily designed for running. While they offer decent stability, they may not provide the specific support needed for activities like weightlifting or lateral movements in cross-training.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel snug but not tight, and the midfoot should feel secure without excessive pressure.
What colors and sizes are available?
The Supernova Glide series is available in various colors, including Purple, Grey, Pink, Black, and White, across a range of adult women's sizes.
Troubleshooting
Laces are difficult to adjust
Ensure the laces are not twisted and are threaded through the eyelets correctly. If laces are worn, consider replacing them with a new pair.
Unusual squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped within the shoe. Try air-drying the shoes thoroughly. If the noise persists, it might be an internal component.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
Midsole cushioning naturally degrades with extensive use. For optimal performance and comfort, consider replacing the trainers after approximately 300-500 miles (500-800 km) of running, or when wear is noticeable.
Discomfort on longer runs
Ensure the fit is correct and laces are tied appropriately. If discomfort persists, the shoe's cushioning or support level might not be ideal for your specific biomechanics or the distance being run.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The adidas Supernova Glide Trainers require no initial setup. Simply ensure the laces are adjusted for a comfortable and secure fit before your first use.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed primarily for road running. They are compatible with standard running socks. They are not intended for use with specialized orthotics unless advised by a medical professional.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to clean the upper and outsole. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
