Full details
The adidas Supernova Glide Trainers are designed for adult female runners seeking an effortless daily running experience. Their key benefit is the combination of lightweight support and balanced cushioning, allowing for fewer distractions during your runs. A potential caveat is that while designed for various conditions, optimal performance may vary based on individual foot strike and specific terrain. These trainers feature a breathable mono-mesh upper, a cushioned tongue for a secure fit, a Dreamstrike midsole for soft yet stable cushioning, and a transparent rubber outsole for reliable traction.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
The Supernova Glide trainers are designed for daily running and offer good cushioning for longer distances. For peak marathon performance, consider models specifically engineered for elite racing, but these are a solid option for training runs leading up to a marathon.
What type of foot pronation do these trainers support?
The Dreamstrike midsole provides a balance of soft and stable cushioning, generally suitable for neutral runners. They are not specifically designed as stability shoes for overpronation.
How do I choose the right size?
These shoes are designed to fit true to size for adult women. We recommend trying them on if possible, or referring to a standard UK sizing chart.
Can I wear these trainers for gym workouts?
While they can be used for light gym activities, their primary design is for running. For specific cross-training or weightlifting, dedicated gym shoes might offer better stability and support.
How durable is the transparent rubber outsole?
The transparent rubber outsole is designed for reliable traction and durability for daily running. With proper care, it should withstand regular use on appropriate surfaces.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The trainers feature a breathable mesh upper and are not waterproof. They are designed to be water-resistant to a degree for light rain, but will not keep feet dry in heavy downpours or submersion.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort on first wear
Allow for a break-in period of a few runs. Ensure laces are adjusted for a secure but not overly tight fit.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris. While designed for wet conditions, extremely slick surfaces may still pose a risk.
Upper feels too loose or too tight
Adjust lacing technique. The cushioned tongue is designed to adapt, but proper lacing is key to a personalized fit.
