adidas launches Supernova Rise 2 with more comfort in a lighter package

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.
