Product Information
Full details
These adidas running shoes are designed for adult female runners seeking comfort and support during their runs. The key benefit is the hybrid midsole providing cushioning and smooth heel-to-toe transitions, while a breathable mesh upper ensures feet stay cool. A potential caveat is that the specific cushioning and support might be best suited for neutral pronation runners.

FAQs
What type of runner is this shoe best for?
These shoes are ideal for neutral runners who do not require significant stability or motion control. The cushioning and ride are well-suited for daily training and longer runs.
Can these shoes be used for cross-training?
While they offer good cushioning, they are primarily designed for running. For activities involving lateral movements, a shoe with more lateral support might be more appropriate.
How do I clean mud off the shoes?
Allow the mud to dry, then brush off as much as possible with a dry brush. For remaining dirt, use a mild soap and cool water with a soft cloth or sponge. Always air dry.
What is the expected lifespan of these running shoes?
The lifespan of running shoes typically ranges from 300 to 500 miles, depending on factors like running surface, individual biomechanics, and care. Regular inspection for wear on the outsole and midsole is recommended.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the mesh upper is designed for breathability, not waterproofing. They are not suitable for running in very wet conditions or heavy rain.
Do these shoes come in other colors?
This specific product listing is for the white colorway. Please check other product listings or the brand's official website for available color options in the Supernova series.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring the pressure is evenly distributed. If still too tight, consider if the size is correct or if the shoe requires a break-in period.
Feet feel hot and sweaty
Ensure the laces are not tied too tightly, which can restrict airflow. For persistent issues, consider wearing moisture-wicking socks.
Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces
The grip may be reduced on very wet surfaces. Exercise caution and maintain a slower pace. Ensure the outsole is free from debris that could impair traction.
Midsole feels too firm
Running shoes often require a break-in period of 5-10 miles for the midsole to adapt to your stride and soften slightly. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: These running shoes require no specific setup. Simply ensure you have the correct size for a comfortable fit before your first run.
Compatibility: These shoes are designed for running, primarily on roads and well-maintained paths. They are compatible with typical running attire and can be worn by adult females.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: To clean, use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap with cool water and a sponge. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes. Stuff them with paper towels to help absorb excess moisture and maintain their shape. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store your running shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing them in plastic bags, as this can trap moisture and lead to odors.
