Previous slideNext slide
The Adidas Supernova 3 arrives with an important renovation with respect to its previous version, but maintaining the essence of being a versatile model so that the novice runner has the opportunity to run at different paces and on a variety of terrains. To all this we must add that they have an exceptional quality-price ratio.
As a running shoe for daily training, these Adidas Supernova 3 have a high level of comfort for all types of training on asphalt, and even on compacted earth and not very technical roads. It delivers on functionality and performance for every kilometre you run.
What are the most outstanding new features of the Adidas Supernova 3?
Compared to the Adidas Supernova 2, this third version includes the same midsole configuration. That's why the product developers of Adidas running have opted to maintain the quality leap in this model. The formula of Boost and Eva foams that we saw in the original version of Supernova is replaced by the effective combination of Boost and Bounce. A very remarkable technological resource for the runner to feel, perceive and enjoy the pleasure of running with more smoothness and flexibility, as well as a better running experience in each scheduled session of your individualized training plan.
The Boost compound in the heel area is a great success to offer greater shock absorption in this strategic point of the model, but also adding a very effective comfort and response to run with the best guarantees and protection. While the Bounce foam is responsible for maximizing the degree of cushioning, as we are talking about a material with better performance than traditional EVA. More comfort in every step.
The upper of these Adidas Supernova 3 has also been improved with a more breathable technical mesh and a more personalized fit so that the shoe adapts better to the runner's foot. Like the Adidas Supernova 2.0, this new third version of the Adidas Supernova also features an upper made from at least 50% recycled materials. What's more, it has the Primegreen label.
On the other hand, and with the purpose of offering a better support, theseAdidas Supernova 3.0 add a more padded and reinforced heel area to avoid unnecessary movements of the ankle, and the foot stays where it should be without limiting your movements.
Also unchanged is the rubber outsole, and this material ensures optimal grip on dry and wet surfaces.
Runner profile of the Adidas Supernova 3
Designed for runners with neutral stride and medium to heavy weight. Furthermore, this third version of the Adidas Supernova 3 may be the ideal training shoe for runners above 85 kg.
In short, this third version of the Adidas Supernova is a model designed to compete head to head with other silhouettes of the caliber of the ASICS Gel Pulse 14 or the Nike Escape Run 2, among other interesting options for beginner runners.
Technical specifications of the Adidas Supernova 3
In terms of technical specifications, these Adidas Supernova 3 do not vary in terms of their 9 mm drop, and they have a heel height of 25 mm, 16 mm in the forefoot. Every feature is combined to run with the security you need in every workout. In addition, and although it may not seem like many grams, this new version of the Supernova has managed to reduce its weight, reducing the 289 grams of the previous version to 283 grams in these Adidas Supernova 3. Whichever way you look at it, it'syour best choice to make it your first running shoe.

Adidas Supernova 3 - The perfect shoe to get you started in running
The Adidas Supernova 3 is an ideal solution for those who are new to running or for runners looking for a more relaxed pace. This mid-range shoe stands out for its excellent cushioning, thanks to the combination of Bounce and Boost technologies in the midsole, and a design focused on comfort and support. Its Flyknit mesh upper and Continental rubber outsole combine to offer a smooth and stable running experience. At an affordable price, these shoes offer exceptional value, making them an attractive option for a wide range of runners.
Adidas Supernova 3 running feel
When you put on the Supernova 3, you immediately notice the softness and support they offer. The combination of Bounce and Boost technologies in the midsole translates into a comfortable running experience and a firm feel without being harsh. This blend is especially beneficial for runners new to running or those who enjoy a more leisurely pace, as it provides consistent cushioning and adequate energy return without being overwhelming.
Ideal runner type
The feeling of running in these shoes is one of security and support. The impact in each step feels absorbed and transformed into energy, which helps reduce fatigue and keeps your legs fresh, especially on those longer, quieter runs. The Flyknit mesh upper ensures a comfortable and breathable fit, which is essential for keeping your feet cool and dry, no matter the distance.
The Adidas Supernova 3 is designed with the beginner runner and those who prefer a more relaxed pace in mind. They are ideal for runners looking for a shoe with good cushioning, reliable support and a comfortable feel throughout the run. They are also perfect for those new to running or those who run at more moderate paces, providing everything needed to foster a positive running experience.
Recommended distances and paces
These shoes are suitable for a variety of distances, from short 5K runs to longer distances such as half marathons. They especially shine in steady, leisurely paced workouts, where the priority is comfort and reduced joint impact. Their robust design and reliable cushioning make them an excellent choice for long training sessions, helping runners feel comfortable on the run.
Possible points for improvement
Despite their many strengths, there are areas where the Supernova 3 could be improved. The fit is a bit tight, so I would suggest a half or even one size larger. Also, keep in mind that this is a mid-range shoe. Those of you looking for speed are going to prefer a lighter, more responsive shoe.
