Adidas Supernova Solution 2 Review: Comfort Meets Performance
If you're searching for a reliable daily trainer that balances cushioning, support, and versatility, the Adidas Supernova Solution 2 might just be your perfect match. Designed for runners who prioritize comfort without sacrificing responsiveness, this shoe is a solid update in the Supernova lineup.
Right out of the box, the Supernova Solution 2 feels plush. Adidas has incorporated a dual-foam midsole featuring Dreamstrike+ in the forefoot for energy return and Support Rods through the midfoot for added stability. This combo delivers a smooth, controlled ride whether you're out for an easy jog or pushing through tempo runs.
The upper features a breathable engineered mesh with thoughtful padding around the heel and tongue, offering a secure fit without hot spots. One noticeable update is the improved lacing system that offers a more locked-in feel — a plus for those longer runs when foot movement can become an issue.
In terms of outsole durability, Adidas uses Adiwear rubber, which holds up well over pavement and light trails. Grip is solid in most conditions, although wet surfaces may still be a little tricky, as with many road shoes.
Weighing in at around 10 oz (men’s size 9), it’s not ultra-light, but it’s not clunky either. It strikes a good middle ground for runners who want a “do-it-all” shoe without feeling weighed down.
Verdict:
The Adidas Supernova Solution 2 is a fantastic daily trainer for neutral runners who crave comfort and light stability. It's especially ideal for those logging moderate mileage and looking for a cushioned, supportive ride. At its price point, it's a smart investment for both beginner and experienced runners.
