Drum roll... Welcome the adidas Supernova 2.0, the new version of one of the best value-for-money running shoes on the market! This updated model features a fresh, more attractive design and certain modifications that make it a trainer to be reckoned with.

These adidas Supernova 2.0 running shoes stand out for their great cushioning and responsiveness over medium distances, especially from 10k to 21k. The designers of the German company have invested all their efforts and their most innovative technology to present a well-balanced trainer with a modern aesthetic and sustainable manufacturing. What more could you ask for?

Main features of the adidas Supernova 2.0

Adidas Supernova 2.0, midsole

adidas has a clear goal with the Supernova 2.0–to offer a trainer with good cushioning that isn't overly heavy. The key to this lies in the BOOST technology embedded in its midsole, ensuring a comfortable and pleasant stride. This material, now redesigned, also enhances stability and provides the necessary reactivity for shorter distances or intense workouts.

Adidas Supernova 2.0 upper

The adidas Supernova 2.0 boasts a much more ventilated upper than its predecessor, the Supernova+, an aspect of vital importance for running in hot and humid conditions. Notably, adidas has reduced the height of the Achilles tendon support, but both the tongue and the Achilles area are now softer and offer a better fit. It's worth mentioning that at least 50% of the upper is made from recycled materials.

The outsole pattern has also been modified in these running shoes for men and women. In this new version, the area occupied by the compound has been reduced, so that the BOOST is revealed. This has a clear objective, to reduce the weight of the trainer, andwhile we don't have official data, it's safe to assume that they've achieved this.

adidas Supernova 2.0, a trainer to be reckoned with

A highly recommended trainer has hit the market for runners seeking a well-cushioned daily training shoe with a touch of reactivity and lightness. This model is primarily intended for novice runners or those with a moderate training frequency, say, three days a week.

Recommended, above all, for middle-distance running, the adidas Supernova 2.0 has a 9 mm drop, 1 mm less than the previous version. This model is an excellent companion for tackling your first 10k or 21k and, why not, aiming to improve your personal bests.

adidas Supernova 2.0, even more versatile to go beyond a starter shoe

I wanted to tell you about this running shoes, because in this review of the adidas Supernova 2.0 I take the opportunity to tell you the main arguments, so they should be in your closet if or if. With its great value for money, this adidas model has evolved to be a very versatile and reliable daily training shoe.

Before putting on any running shoe you need to be clear about your main objective, and the use you want to give to the model in question. These adidas Supernova 2.0 ensure very good running performance, which translates into optimal cushioning, great comfort and good support to enhance your running experience.

I'm not going to fool you, a priori, seeing the changes with respect to its previous version I had my doubts about it. In fact I would say that this second version of the adidas Supernova is one of those shoes that you like more and more as you run with them.

Which runner profile is best suited for these adidas Supernova 2.0

Which runner profile is the most suitable for these adidas Supernova 2.0?

Neutral runners or users of light or medium weight insoles, even of high weight who do no more than 15/20 kms per week. For training at easy paces, from 5'1k to slower.

Strong points and what we like most about the adidas Supernova 2.0

While it is true that they are not one of adidas' most media-worthy running shoes, these Supernova 2.0 are a very good option as a shoe for running 20 or 30 kilometers per week, maximum.

The midsole construction with the combination of Bounce and Boost foams ensures great shock absorption and stability, but also efficient energy return with every stride.

The technical mesh upper is lightweight and soft to the touch, and also promotes better breathability and support. This support is reinforced by the 6+1 eyelet lacing. Not to mention that this part of the shoe is made with at least 50% recycled materials. You will be wearing a more sustainable model.

Strengths and what we liked most about the adidas Supernova 2.0

The best thing about the outsole is that it mixes elements of injected TPU and rubber compound to make it more resistant, while offering very good traction on different surfaces.

Precisely, I liked these adidas Superonva 2.0 just where I thought I would like them the least: the cushioning in the heel area. After living with the experience of the adidas Ultraboost 22, I thought that the increased amount of foam in the heel was not going to convince me, but I was wrong. They cushion well and with a firm, but soft feel to enjoy running every kilometer you train.

Opportunities for improvement

Despite that more padded and comfortable tongue, it is necessary that the fit of the shoe is perfect to avoid unwanted movements and displacements of the shoe while you go running.

On the other hand, and under my personal point of view - there is always someone who can think and/or contribute what he/she considers appropriate, and welcome - it is not a model designed for training and/or long distance races.

I also point out that the pattern of the outsole does not bring with it that characteristic Continental rubber compound seems to me not very wise, because it would make the shoe adapt to wet and more slippery terrain. It is also true that if you put yourself in the place of the product designers of the German brand, the mission to lighten the weight has been the priority.

Conclusion of the adidas Supernova 2.0

This great value for money makes these adidas Supernova 2.0 the ideal choice for comfortable, stable running in your short and medium distance workouts.

Its design is intended for all types of runners. Intermediate and heavy weights, and for running at paces above the 5 watches:00 min/km, and even slower. Now, taking into account the runner's own weight, this model will also be able to offer a more dynamic behavior to move in a more agile way.

While it is true that I would highlight it as one of the best running shoes to start running for its great comfort from start to finish. Nor would it be fair to highlight these renewed Supernova 2.0 as that option for the days of running sessions of counter paces, or for those recovery runs.
