FAQs
What type of runner is the Supernova Glide best suited for?
The Supernova Glide is ideal for adult male runners looking for a comfortable and reliable shoe for road running, including daily training and longer distances. It's best for neutral runners.
Can I use these shoes for trail running?
These shoes are primarily designed for road running. While the outsole offers decent traction, they lack the aggressive lugs and protective features needed for technical trails.
How should I clean my Supernova Glide trainers?
Clean them using a damp cloth or a soft brush to remove dirt. Avoid machine washing or using strong cleaning agents. Allow them to air dry naturally away from heat.
What is the primary cushioning technology?
The shoes feature the Dreamstrike midsole, which is designed to provide a balance of soft and stable cushioning throughout the length of the shoe.
How does the upper adapt to the foot?
The upper is made of a lightweight mono-mesh that is engineered to conform to the shape of your foot, offering a supportive and adaptive fit.
Will these shoes provide good grip in wet conditions?
Yes, the transparent rubber outsole is designed to offer reliable traction on both dry and wet road surfaces.
What is the main benefit of the padded tongue?
The padded tongue is designed to conform to the shape of your foot, enhancing support and comfort, and contributing to a reliable feel.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing pattern. Try different lacing techniques to find a more secure or relaxed fit. Ensure you have the correct size by trying them on with your usual running socks.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces.
Check the outsole for any embedded debris like small stones or mud. Clean the outsole with water and a brush. While designed for wet conditions, extreme slickness can still reduce grip. Ensure the outsole is not excessively worn.
Discomfort during runs.
Ensure the shoes are broken in properly by gradually increasing mileage. Verify the fit and lacing. Consider if the shoe's support level (neutral) is appropriate for your gait. Consult a running specialist if discomfort persists.
Upper material feels abrasive.
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them with thicker or different types of socks. If the abrasion persists in a specific spot after several runs, it might indicate a fit issue.
