FAQs
What type of running are these shoes best suited for?
The adidas Supernova Glide trainers are ideal for daily runs, road running, and general fitness training. They offer a balanced cushioning and responsiveness for everyday mileage.
How should I clean my Supernova Glide trainers?
Gently clean with a soft brush and a damp cloth with mild soap. Allow them to air dry at room temperature, away from direct heat.
What is the midsole drop on these trainers?
The midsole drop is 8 mm, with a heel height of 36 mm and a forefoot height of 28 mm.
Are these shoes suitable for trail running?
No, these trainers are designed for road running and general fitness. They do not have the specialized features or aggressive outsole grip required for technical trail running.
What does the 'Dreamstrike midsole' do?
The Dreamstrike midsole is engineered to provide a combination of soft cushioning for comfort and responsive feedback for energy return during your runs.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The shoe should feel snug but not tight around the midfoot and heel, with no heel slippage.
Are the reflective details effective in all lighting conditions?
The reflective details are designed to enhance visibility in low-light conditions when illuminated by an external light source, such as headlights. They are not a substitute for active lighting in complete darkness.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort or blisters
Ensure you have the correct size and fit. Consider wearing moisture-wicking socks and breaking in the shoes gradually with shorter runs before attempting longer distances.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole is designed for general traction; specialized grip for extremely wet or slippery conditions may be limited. Ensure the outsole is free from debris.
Upper material feels too loose or tight
Adjust the laces to achieve a secure but comfortable fit. The textile upper is designed to conform to the foot over time.

Care:
