FAQs
What type of runner is the Supernova Glide best for?
The Supernova Glide is best suited for neutral runners who need a balance of cushioning and responsiveness for daily training, road running, and medium to long distances.
How should I clean my Supernova Glide trainers?
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Remove insoles and hand wash if necessary. Always air dry away from direct heat.
What is the midsole drop of these trainers?
The midsole drop is 8 mm, with a heel height of 36 mm and a forefoot height of 28 mm.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the textile upper is breathable and not waterproof. They are best suited for dry to moderately wet conditions and not heavy rain.
Can I use these for trail running?
While they can handle light gravel or hard-packed dirt paths, they are primarily designed for road running. For technical trails, dedicated trail running shoes are recommended.
What is the weight of a single trainer?
A single trainer weighs approximately 282 grams (based on a men's size).
Do these trainers offer stability features for overpronation?
The Supernova Glide is designed for neutral runners and does not offer specific stability features for overpronation. Runners requiring pronation support may need to consider stability-focused models.
Troubleshooting
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure you are using a secure lacing technique, such as a double knot. Consider replacing laces with ones that offer better grip if the issue persists.
Discomfort after initial wear
Allow a break-in period of a few runs. If discomfort persists, check lacing for tightness and ensure the shoe size is correct. Consider alternative lacing methods to alleviate pressure points.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
Cushioning naturally degrades with mileage. For optimal performance, consider replacing trainers after 300-500 miles, depending on usage and surface.
Slipping on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides good traction, but performance on very wet, smooth surfaces may be reduced. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
These trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure the laces are tied securely but not too tightly to allow for foot swelling during activity. The regular fit is designed to accommodate most standard foot widths.
Compatibility:
- Surfaces: Best suited for road running, treadmills, and light gravel paths.
- Weather: The textile upper offers good breathability, making them ideal for moderate to warm conditions. They are not waterproof and may not be suitable for heavy rain or snow.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe down with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, remove insoles and hand wash the shoes with mild soap and cool water. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shoe shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably not in direct sunlight, to preserve materials and color.
