The Adidas Supernova Rise represents the brand's new generation of daily trainers, specifically designed to optimize comfort and stability for mid-distance runs. This model marks a departure from firmer foams, focusing instead on offering a plush and welcoming feel that makes running easier and more enjoyable.
This shoe is distinguished by its generous, chunky midsole entirely focused on cushioning, and the use of the Dreamstrike+ foam. The Supernova Rise is the perfect choice for runners of all levels seeking an extremely comfortable, responsive shoe with a modern and functional design aesthetic.
Construction Highlights and Cushioning Innovation
The construction of the Supernova Rise is defined by its new cushioning technology and support components that ensure stability while maintaining a focus on comfort.
-
Dreamstrike+ Cushioning: The centerpiece of the shoe. This is a new, ultralight foam developed by Adidas (based on PEBA or E-TPU) strategically inserted into the midsole. Dreamstrike+ is softer, more responsive, and offers higher energy return than traditional EVA foams, providing an energized yet protective ride.
-
Support Rods System: Integrated into the midsole, these rods made of dense foam (or stiffer material) extend from the heel to the forefoot. They act as guides, offering support and smooth transitions, ensuring the foot moves efficiently without being excessively rigid.
-
Engineered Mesh Upper: The upper is constructed with breathable engineered mesh, offering a soft, secure fit with targeted support. The material is lightweight and designed to keep the foot cool and comfortable.
-
Adiwear Outsole: The outsole is covered with the Adiwear compound, Adidas's highly abrasion-resistant and durable rubber, ensuring exceptional traction and longevity even through consistent training.
-
Padded Tongue Construction: The tongue is carefully padded to reduce pressure on the instep caused by the laces, enhancing overall comfort.
