Runner's World Shoe Lab Test Results


We Say: If you've been happy with the Supernova line, you're probably going to love this update. It features new, softer adiPrene foam in the heel-strike zone and under the ball of the foot for improved midsole fit and cushioning. (Our Shoe Lab tests found it to be the third-softest shoe in the guide.) The upper has a new bootie construction with welded overlays for a more snug, comfortable fit. Recommended for smaller, biomechanically efficient runners looking for plenty of cushioning.

Most Adidas shoes have proven to soft for me to run in, but I am very happy with this model. Excellent cushioning and seems to hold up well during short runs (less than 5 miles)..
