FAQs

What type of running is the Supernova Glide best suited for?

The Supernova Glide is ideal for daily training, including easy runs, tempo runs, and recovery runs. It prioritizes comfort and cushioning for consistent mileage.

How do I know if I have the right size?

You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug around the heel and midfoot, without being too tight.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand-washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method to preserve the materials and structure.

What is the main difference between the Supernova Glide and other adidas running shoes?

The Supernova Glide features the innovative Dreamstrike midsole for a balance of soft cushioning and smooth transitions, making it particularly well-suited for daily mileage and comfort-focused running.

How long will the cushioning last?

The longevity of the cushioning depends on usage frequency, running surface, and individual running style. For most daily runners, the cushioning should remain effective for several hundred miles, but performance may gradually decrease over time.

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

Yes, the Supernova Glide can be suitable for marathon training and racing for runners who prefer a well-cushioned and comfortable shoe. However, elite marathoners might opt for lighter, more specialized racing shoes.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing them with different types of running socks. If the issue persists after a break-in period, they may not be the right fit for your foot shape.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

While the rubber outsole offers reliable traction, extreme wet conditions may still pose a challenge. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris. For very slick surfaces, consider a shoe specifically designed for wet-weather running.

Cushioning feels too soft or too firm

Cushioning preference is subjective. The Dreamstrike midsole is designed to offer a balance. If it doesn't meet your expectations after a break-in period, it might be a matter of personal preference rather than a product defect.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: To clean, use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt from the upper and outsole. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
