FAQs
What type of runner is the Supernova Glide best suited for?
The Supernova Glide is ideal for neutral runners or those with mild pronation, looking for a daily trainer that offers a balance of cushioning and responsiveness for road running.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by adidas and measure your foot length. It is recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary. Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Can these shoes be used for trail running?
No, the Supernova Glide is designed primarily for road running and smooth surfaces. The outsole grip and cushioning are optimized for pavement and are not suitable for rugged trail terrain.
What is the difference between Dreamstrike+ and EVA midsoles?
Dreamstrike+ is adidas's proprietary foam technology designed for a supportive and responsive feel. EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) is a common foam used for its lightweight cushioning properties. The Supernova Glide utilizes both to provide a comprehensive cushioning experience.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Supernova Glide trainers are not waterproof. They are constructed with breathable materials for comfort during runs, which means they will allow water to penetrate in wet conditions.
What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?
With regular use and proper care, most running shoes like the Supernova Glide typically last between 300-500 miles (approx. 500-800 kilometers). This can vary based on running style, weight, and surface.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and try re-lacing them, focusing on even tension. If still too tight, consider if the size is appropriate or if a break-in period is needed.
Reduced cushioning over time
Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn. The cushioning materials can degrade with heavy use. Clean the shoes as per care instructions.
Slipping sensation during runs
Check that the laces are tied securely. Ensure the socks provide adequate grip. If the issue persists, the shoe's traction might be compromised due to wear or surface conditions.
Discomfort in the arch area
Verify the correct shoe size and width. Consider using aftermarket insoles or orthotics for additional arch support if needed.
