FAQs
What is the main advantage of the DREAMSTRIKE midsole?
The DREAMSTRIKE midsole offers a combination of soft cushioning and responsive energy return, making it ideal for daily training runs.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the cushioning and lightweight design make them suitable for marathon distances, especially for runners who prefer a balanced feel rather than maximum cushioning.
Can I wear these shoes for cross-training or gym workouts?
While primarily designed for running, they can be used for general fitness activities and some cross-training due to their comfort and stable base.
How do I know if the 7mm drop is right for me?
A 7mm drop is considered moderate and works well for many runners, promoting a natural stride. If you typically prefer very low or very high drops, consider trying them on first.
What is the weight of these trainers?
The adidas Supernova Glide trainers weigh approximately 240 grams for a standard women's size.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the textile upper is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or lightly wet conditions.
How do I clean my Supernova Glide trainers?
Clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing and always air dry away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing system. For tightness, loosen the laces; for looseness, tighten them, ensuring the heel is snug.
Discomfort during runs
Ensure you have the correct size and consider using specialized running socks. If discomfort persists, the shoe's drop or cushioning profile might not suit your gait.
Traction issues on wet surfaces
While the rubber outsole provides grip, wet surfaces inherently reduce traction. Run with caution and ensure the outsole is not excessively worn.
Materials feel stiff initially
New shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
