adidas Supernova Prima Reviews

At 205 lb and 25–35 mpw, their first run in the Supernova Prima (bought for $64) was the most enjoyable first run they've had; it feels protective without being mushy.

Ten miles in, the Supernova Prima's Dreamstrike+ is fun and comfortable at almost any pace and getting bouncier; it may steal miles from their Superblasts.

The Supernova Prima's foam lost much of its energy and bounce after about 70 miles, though the first 20–30 were heaven.

As a lighter runner, the Supernova Prima's foam feels firm with no squish or bounce: the most average of the 20+ models they've owned, but satisfying for $60.

The Supernova Prima was extremely uncomfortable for its first 40–45 km (starting with a half marathon), then fit and felt like a dream once broken in.

Finds the Supernova Prima far better than the boring original Supernova Rise.

The Supernova Prima feels more stable than the Rise, but they'd pick their Novablast 4 for its lighter weight and energy return.

A 2:50 marathoner training for Boston has 41 miles (including a 12-miler first run) in the Supernova Prima: it disappears into the run and they own two pairs.

Bought the Supernova Prima for about $60 and was really impressed on a long run: smooth and solid, not too soft or firm, super comfortable upper, and no traction issues in rain.

A heavier zone-2 runner (185 lb, 20 mpw) bought the Supernova Prima cheap: plush and comfortable with a wide toe box, comparable to the More v4, and it handled an 8-mile long run great.
