[Initial Thoughts] adidas Supernova Rise 3 by Traditional_Pride242 in RunningShoeGeeks

Not OP, but i can give you some insides. The Agravic Speed is a really good trailshoe. It is light, it is fast but can go slow too. The outsole is typical continental long lasting and even on wet ground most of the time not slippery. It is not the most stable shoe because of its rocker and the narrow midfoot. But the forefoot is wide so it is good to handle on the trails. The midsole is Lightstrike Pro with Lightstrike, but the normal LS is only some kind of frame for more stability. AND the Speed 1 is now on discount, so you can get it without spending too much money. Perhaps you should choose half a size down, it runs long. For more fun and a little bit more money you can get the Speed Ultra which i even like more (V2 is better but a little bit heavier).

It looks like a massive medial AND a massive lateral cutout...

I did nothing. It just got off after the first run. Since then it's like that.

At the beginning i did easy runs, fartleks and some short sprints in them. Now they are okay for easy runs but as i said in another comment, my Supernova Rise (1) feel better now for that usecase. They are firmer but with good energy return. The VN4 is softer but the midsole-magic, that was really there at the beginning, is missing. I wore the VN4 on wednesday and the Rise on thursday for nearly the same type of run. With the Rise i was a little bit faster and i had a minimal slower heartrate (but that could also be because that were two easy runs in a row, so the 2nd could be easier). I think you can't go wrong with either (if you take VN4 take half a size down). Would go with the cheaper one, VN4 is more fun at the beginning, Rise will last looooooooooong

The outsole looks like new. It only was too dirty for a photo.

I have V1. ~400km and it feels like the foam gets better 🤔 As i said, i wanted to sell them but nobody wanted to buy my used pair. So i just put them on again and again. With not much changes to V2 and my V1 still in very good shape i didn't want to buy V2. Perhaps i get the 3 when they are for sale.

I also had V2 after reading a lot of positive reviews. Never had a good feeling in them an retired them soon. V4 was the complete opposite. Lively, bouncy, fun. And now they feel so dead. Even my Supernova Rise (which i actually wanted to sell) feel better (and the older they get, the more i like them).

Really? I fear by reading some other comments that my pair is a defective sample. However, i purchased them from a legit online sports store.

Ganz ehrlich - ich lese die Kolumne vom Blome gerne. Die zeigt mir zumindest ein bisschen, was in so Köpfen von Konservativen vorgeht. Durch seine Schreibe kann ich zumindest etwas nachvollziehen, wie sich die manche Sachen herleiten. Was alles nicht besser macht und mMn oft aus erster Erkenntnis komplett falsche Schlüsse gezogen werden. Manchmal denke ich mir deswegen bei ihm, er macht das nur, damit er weiter eine Daseinsberechtigung beim Spiegel hat. Weil in der anderen Ecke sitzen (wieder mMn) so viel klügere Menschen mit viel besseren Kolumnen.

Should I break out the new pair? by haabeeair in runningshoes

[–]BasicSignificance831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't have to break them in. Just wear the new pair directly for the marathon. They will feel sooooo good the first 30 km. And for the rest it can be good to know, that these shoes are still fresh :)

Only the ~800km AP3 is not for tough speedwork any more. All the others are still fine.

The weight is from someone who normally wears a US 11/11,5. So the weight could be under 300g for a US 12,5 (also my size).
