FAQs
What is the primary use case for the Supernova Glide trainers?
These trainers are best suited for daily running, offering a balance of cushioning and responsiveness for distances up to a half-marathon. They are also suitable for general fitness activities.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by adidas and ensure you measure your foot accurately. The UK sizing is indicated, and the regular fit should accommodate most standard foot widths.
Are these shoes suitable for trail running?
The Supernova Glide is designed primarily for road running. The outsole grip may not be sufficient for technical or muddy trail conditions.
What is the midsole drop and what does it mean?
The midsole drop is 8mm (36mm in the heel and 28mm in the forefoot). This measurement indicates the height difference between the heel and the forefoot. An 8mm drop is considered moderate and supports a natural running stride.
How often should I replace my Supernova Glide trainers?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300-500 miles (480-800 km), or when you notice a significant decrease in cushioning or support.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and structure of the shoe. Hand wash with mild soap and water, and air dry.
What does 'regular fit' mean?
'Regular fit' indicates a standard width and volume that is suitable for the average foot. It is not considered narrow or wide.
Troubleshooting
Uncomfortable fit
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Try wearing them with different types of running socks. If the issue persists, the fit may not be suitable for your foot shape.
Reduced cushioning over time
Midsole cushioning can naturally degrade with extensive use. For optimal performance, consider replacing trainers after approximately 300-500 miles of running.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the rubber outsole provides good traction, extreme wet conditions can reduce grip. Exercise caution on very slick surfaces.
