FAQs
What type of running are these trainers best suited for?
These trainers are best suited for road running and daily training, offering a balance of cushioning and responsiveness. They are also suitable for general fitness activities.
What is the purpose of the DREAMSTRIKE midsole?
The DREAMSTRIKE midsole is designed to provide responsive cushioning and energy return, helping to reduce impact and propel you forward during your run.
How do I clean my Supernova Glide trainers?
Gently clean the trainers with a soft brush or a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or machine washing. Always air dry them away from direct heat.
What does a 7 mm midsole drop mean?
A 7 mm midsole drop indicates the height difference between the heel (35 mm) and the forefoot (27 mm). This typically provides a balanced feel that suits many runners.
Are these trainers suitable for wet weather conditions?
The textile upper offers breathability but may not provide significant water resistance. For very wet conditions, consider specialized waterproof footwear.
How much do these trainers weigh?
These trainers weigh approximately 240 grams, making them a mid-weight option suitable for daily running.
Can I use these for cross-training activities?
While they offer good support, they are primarily designed for running. For high-impact cross-training, shoes specifically designed for those activities might be more appropriate.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect
Ensure laces are adjusted properly. Consider the specific fit of the textile upper. If still uncomfortable, check if other sizes or models might be a better fit.
Traction is reduced
Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly with a brush to remove embedded debris. Check for excessive wear on the outsole tread.
Midsole feels too firm or too soft
The DREAMSTRIKE midsole is designed for a specific balance. Allow a break-in period of a few runs. Performance can vary based on individual running style and weight.
Upper material feels restrictive
Loosen the laces, particularly around the midfoot. The textile sockliner is designed to conform to the foot over time.
