Adidas Supernova Glide 2

The new Adidas Supernova Glide 2 is one of 2010’s top cushion running shoes. The first Glide that was a replacement for the legendary Adidas Supernova Cushion was well received. This shoe has a lot of legacy that has evolved with it.

This year’s version does not disappoint. Adidas upgrade this shoe to give a bit more room on the forefoot and surprisingly gave it a little bit of outer sole stability.

The Adidas Supernova Glide 2 looks quite different because of the added heft of the stability of the medial post. It almost looks like a motion control running shoe except for the segmented forMOTION heel that gives the shoe a soft ride.

Aside from the stability provided by the now bigger medial post the three stripes that make the Adidas logo provides a firm support for the upper part. The slightly softer mesh on the toebox (compared to the older Glide) gives this Adidas Cushion Running Shoe a comfortable and snug fit on the front portion of the shoe.

All in all this shoe is a good upgrade to last year’s model. This shoe is best for those wanting the very robust platform all Adidas shoes provide in a package that can very well cushion the bigger runners among us.

This shoe retails for $100 usd and can sometimes be found cheaper online. It’s good for high arch runners who are heavier and need added stability along with a soft cushioned ride.
