Adidas unveils the Supernova Rise 2, the latest addition to its comfort-tuned Supernova franchise designed for the everyday run and 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 allows the shoe to be 4% lighter than the original silhouette, thanks to an updated engineered outer mesh and an enhanced heel pillow. 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 utilized 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.
IT Newcomb, Category Director, adidas Running Footwear, says: “When developing the Supernova Rise 2, we wanted to bring everything that our running community loved about its predecessor while adding new features that double down on the franchise’s comfort-driven goal. Thanks to the revamped upper, the Supernova Rise 2 is 4% lighter than its predecessor, providing the best daily running experience to all, mile after mile.”
