FAQs
What is the primary purpose of the Supernova Ease 2 trainers?
These trainers are primarily designed for running and training, offering a balance of cushioning, responsiveness, and lightweight comfort for daily mileage and shorter to medium-distance runs.
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to the UK sizing guide provided by adidas. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the chart. These trainers are a regular fit.
Can these shoes be used for marathon running?
While they offer good cushioning, they are best suited for daily training and shorter to medium-distance runs. For ultra-marathons or very long-distance racing, you might consider models with more specialized cushioning or support features.
What is the benefit of the DREAMSTRIKE midsole?
The DREAMSTRIKE midsole is engineered to provide excellent energy return and superior cushioning, making your runs feel more responsive and comfortable by absorbing impact.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the textile upper is breathable and designed for ventilation, not waterproofing. They are not intended for use in wet conditions or for prolonged exposure to rain.
How does the 10mm midsole drop affect my run?
A 10mm drop (34mm heel, 24mm forefoot) is a moderate drop that promotes a balanced foot strike and can help with a smooth transition during your gait cycle, suitable for many types of runners.
What does 'Cold Cement construction' mean?
Cold Cement construction is a manufacturing method where adhesives are used to bond the sole to the upper. It generally offers good durability and a stable structure.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a snug but not constricting fit. If the issue persists, consider if the size is correct or if the specific Cold Cement construction contributes to a firmer feel.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces
The blown-rubber outsole provides good grip, but performance on extremely wet surfaces can vary. Ensure the outsole is clean. For significantly wet conditions, consider shoes specifically designed for wet traction.
Upper material feels stiff
The textile upper may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially and gradually increase the time to allow them to mold to your feet.
Slight squeaking sound during movement
This can occasionally happen due to friction between internal components. Try wearing thicker socks or apply a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe at the tongue area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and debris from the upper and outsole. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- 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.
- Laces: Hand wash laces separately if they become significantly dirty.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and material integrity. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
