Almost two weeks ago, I posted in this blog about Adidas promo and I thought this is too good to be ignored. So I headed to their Adidas Greenbelt store days later and bought for myself Supernova Sequence that cost me Php 3,900. Had it not been for the php 1,000 discount (original cost is php 4,900), I would have not bought this shoes for the fear of verbal spanking from my wife 
Essentially an upgrade from the very popular Adidas Supernova Control series but much lighter, I’ve been using this shoes on my running sessions to break it in at the DLSU-D Oval and so far I like the support this shoes offer. As I do have an annoyingly sweaty feet during runs, this shoes has absorbent moisture wicking that keeps my feet comfortable and dry. Add to this the Adidas-patented cushioning and and the midfoot structuring, this shoes guides my foot more efficiently with less muscle fatigue. Using Supernova Sequence during my run makes me feel stronger and I seem to notice that it helps me propell forward rather than slow me down on impact.
How I would use this:
I would probably use this for running 10k or half marathons.
Features:
- Fabric mesh upper is breathable and light weight
- Leather and synthetic overlays provide better stability and durability
- Padded tongue and collar and removable insole cushioning for secure fit and extra comfort
- Moisture-wicking fabric lining absorbs excess perspiration to keep feet dry and cool
- Adidas patented adiPRENE midsole and 3D ForMotion provides lightweight and flexible cushioning and guides foot to promote proper running form
- Durable outsole with exclusive Torsion technology for great structure and high traction tread pattern

Hi Sam. I tried the shoe on at one of our local running stores on Monday and feel that this is one of the best shoes that Adidas has come out with. Yes, it’s definitely lighter than the Supernova Control. Definitely, a thumbs-up. Please take care.

Test ran my Adidas Supernova Sequence in Tagaytay, along Aguinaldo Highway, from the Parish of Our Lady of Lourdes to Jollibee in Mendez, and back (total 11km).
Yup, the shoe is great! It’s light, and I can feel the cool air in my feet. Perfect for the uphill/downhill and cool weather of Tagaytay City.

I love this shoe so much! I first got a pair last December and currently 350km’s into it. I knew in the first month that i should have ordered another pair since its quite difficult for me to find a pair that actually has support for my feet.
I just ordered another 4 pairs of the same pair. I think this shoes fits me perfectly especially the support it provides for my foot type! Great choice! hope you’ll love it as much as i am!
