FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?
Yes, the Supernova Glide is designed for high-mileage training thanks to its responsive cushioning.
What is the heel-to-toe drop of these shoes?
The trainers feature an 8 mm midsole drop.
Can I use these for trail running?
They are designed primarily for roads and pavements; they may not provide sufficient protection or grip for technical trails.
How do I determine if 8.5 UK is the right size?
You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to accommodate natural foot swelling while running.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort or pressure points on the top of the foot
Adjust the lacing pattern to a 'window' lacing style to relieve pressure while maintaining a secure fit.
Outsole losing traction in damp conditions
Check the tread for debris or small stones wedged in the rubber; clean the outsole with a soft brush to restore grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, ensure the laces are adjusted to your personal tension preference before your first run to break in the fit. These trainers are compatible with standard athletic socks. For care, avoid machine washing to preserve the integrity of the cushioning. Instead, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. If the shoes become soaked, remove the insoles and air dry them in a shaded, well-ventilated area—avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as these can warp the midsole materials.
