adidas unveiled the Supernova Rise 2, the latest addition to its comfort-tuned Supernova franchise designed for the everyday run.
Built to provide even more comfort than its award-winning predecessor, the Supernova Rise 2 debuts a new upper, engineered with a refined sandwich mesh material for a more breathable and secure fit.
The refined upper of the Supernova Rise 2 makes the shoe 4% lighter than the original silhouette, thanks to an updated engineered outer mesh and an enhanced heel pillow.
Re-engineered underfoot
The shoe also introduces a new and improved heel construction incorporating a refined foam collar for enhanced support and comfort.
Underfoot, the Supernova Rise 2 packs all the ingredients seen in its award-winning predecessor.
The full-length Dreamstrike+ super-foam takes inspiration from Lightstrike Pro – the midsole material utilised across the record-breaking Adizero franchise – but with an updated formula to offer improved comfort and cushioning.
This is paired with a Support Rod system, embedded in the midsole to provide support as runners transition from heel to toe, as well as stability when needed.
To provide grip underfoot, the Supernova Rise 2 features an ADIWEAR outsole made from rubber which provides optimal traction out on the road.
The Supernova Rise 2 retails at R2999 and is available to buy at www.adidas.co.za the app, and select retail stores.
