FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the Supernova Glide trainers with their balanced cushioning are designed to provide comfort and support for longer distances, including marathons. However, individual comfort can vary based on personal preference and foot mechanics.
Can I wear these for gym workouts?
While primarily designed for road running, the stable cushioning and supportive upper make them suitable for some gym activities. However, for specialized training like heavy lifting or court sports, shoes designed specifically for those activities are recommended.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
The shoes are true to 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 secure without slipping.
What is the primary difference between this model and other adidas running shoes?
The Supernova Glide line typically focuses on providing a well-rounded blend of soft cushioning and reliable stability for everyday road running, utilizing specific midsole technologies like Dreamstrike+ for a smooth ride.
How often should I replace my Supernova Glide trainers?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300-500 miles (480-800 kilometers) or when you notice significant wear on the outsole or a reduction in midsole cushioning and support.
Can the color fade over time?
Like most textile products, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause colors to fade. Following the care instructions and drying away from direct sun can help preserve the color.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or cause discomfort
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try loosening the laces, especially around the midfoot, and re-lacing to distribute pressure more evenly. If discomfort persists, consider if this specific model's fit suits your foot shape.
Traction is reduced on wet surfaces
Check the outsole for any embedded debris like small stones or mud that might be affecting grip. Clean the outsole thoroughly. While designed for wet conditions, extreme wetness on polished surfaces can still reduce traction for any shoe.
Upper mesh feels less breathable over time
Ensure the mesh is clean. Trapped dirt or sweat residue can impact breathability. Follow the care instructions for cleaning the upper.
Midsole cushioning feels less effective
Running shoe cushioning naturally degrades over time and mileage. Consider the approximate mileage of your trainers. If they have exceeded their typical lifespan (often 300-500 miles), the cushioning may have diminished.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers require no specific setup beyond lacing them up to your preferred tightness. Ensure they fit snugly but comfortably, with enough room in the toe box.
Compatibility: The Supernova Glide trainers are designed for road running. They are compatible with standard running socks and are suitable for various road surfaces, including asphalt, concrete, and pavement. They are not optimized for trail running or highly technical terrain.
Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your trainers:
- Cleaning: Brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For more thorough cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid storing in damp conditions or direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
