FAQs
What type of runner is the Supernova Glide best suited for?
The Supernova Glide is best suited for neutral runners or those who require mild support, looking for a well-cushioned and responsive shoe for daily training, road running, and moderate distances.
How does the 8mm midsole drop affect my run?
An 8mm drop means there is a difference of 8mm between the heel height and the forefoot height. This offers a balanced feel, promoting a natural foot strike for many runners without being too extreme.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Supernova Glide trainers feature a textile upper designed for breathability, which means they are not waterproof but will allow moisture to escape during your run.
Can I use these shoes for trail running?
While the rubber outsole offers some grip, these shoes are primarily designed for road running. They may not provide sufficient traction or protection for technical or muddy trails.
How do I know when to replace my Supernova Glide trainers?
Most running shoes, including the Supernova Glide, are recommended to be replaced every 500-800 kilometers (300-500 miles) or when you notice a significant decrease in cushioning or support.
What is the main advantage of the Dreamstrike midsole?
The Dreamstrike midsole is engineered to deliver a combination of soft cushioning to absorb impact and a responsive feel to provide energy return with each stride.
Do these trainers have reflective elements?
Yes, the adidas Supernova Glide trainers feature reflective details to enhance your visibility during low-light conditions, such as early mornings or evenings.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing during wear
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Check for any debris inside the shoe. Consider wearing appropriate athletic socks.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time
The midsole cushioning naturally breaks down with significant mileage. Consider replacing the shoes after approximately 500-800 km (300-500 miles) of use, depending on running style and surface.
Slipping on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides good traction, but wet surfaces can still be challenging. Run with caution on wet pavement or slick conditions. Ensure the outsole is free from debris.
