Product Information
Full details
The adidas Supernova Glide trainers are designed for adult female runners seeking a balanced combination of comfort and performance. Their key benefit is a stable, soft cushioning experience thanks to the full-length Dreamstrike midsole, ideal for everyday runs. A potential consideration is that the lightweight mono-mesh upper, while breathable, offers a snug fit that might not suit those preferring a looser feel.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
The Supernova Glide offers good cushioning for various distances. For marathon distances, some runners may prefer shoes with even more specialized long-distance cushioning or a different type of support.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand washing with mild soap and water is the preferred method.
What is the primary benefit of the Dreamstrike midsole?
The Dreamstrike midsole is designed to provide a stable yet soft cushioning experience, absorbing impact effectively while maintaining a responsive feel.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Gently wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry.
Do these shoes offer good arch support?
The shoes provide a stable platform with their cushioning. However, they are not specifically designed as orthotic or motion control shoes. Runners requiring significant arch support might consider adding insoles.
Are the reflective details on the heel sufficient for night running?
The reflective details enhance visibility but should be considered supplementary. For running in low-light or dark conditions, additional reflective gear and lights are strongly recommended for safety.
What type of running surface are these trainers best suited for?
These trainers are best suited for road running and other hard, even surfaces like pavements and treadmills.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces, particularly around the midfoot, and re-tie them. Ensure you are using the correct sock thickness.
Slight rubbing or discomfort
Ensure the padded tongue is positioned correctly. Break in the shoes with shorter runs before attempting longer distances.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces
Clean the outsole to remove any embedded debris. Be cautious on very wet or slippery surfaces, as all rubber outsoles have limitations.
Upper material appears dirty
Gently clean the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow to air dry completely.
