  • RunMag : 89.5 / 100 — « Designed for road runners seeking a dependable daily trainer option, the Adidas Supernova Rise 3 Adaptive impresses in real-world road testing with its secure midfoot lockdown and consistent cushioning. Its upper lockdown and outsole durability on road make it a standout contender at $150. »
  • RunRepeat : 88.6 / 100 — « With the Supernova Rise 3 Adaptive, adidas builds on the strengths of the regular version with thoughtful accessibility-focused features. In our lab tests, we found excellent traction, strong durability, and well-balanced cushioning, while the magnetic lacing system and finger-loop heel tab now make entry remarkably easy. However, the added features increase the weight a bit, and the shoe now feels less lively at faster paces. But it's still an excellent daily trainer for those who need its adaptive features or simply prefer this convenient lacing system. »
