Adidas Supernova Sequence 5 Sneak Peek
February 10th, 2012
The Sequence series from Adidas updates to its fifth version this Fall. Nothing earth-shattering about the redesign of this moderate support, moderate feature shoe, but a fresh design and lots of little tweaks should help it appeal to a broader range of runners.
As with past shoes in the series, the Supernova Sequence 5 will be available in Men’s and Women’s models. It releases in July 2012 at a price of $115.00. The Men’s model will be available in the Tech Grey/Bright Gold color seen below along with a Bright Green/Silver version. The Women’s Sequence 5 launches in the Tech Grey/Hyper Green model shown above and in Bright Red/Tech Grey.
What to Watch For
- Better Upper: Adidas changed the last of this shoe for an improved forefoot fit, redesigned the heel collar, and crafted the upper with a welded microsuede for a softer fit and better forefoot flex.
- More Grip: A larger Continental rubber outsole delivers over 20% more traction in wet and dry conditions.
- Lighter Weight: Adidas estimates a weight of 12.0 oz/10.2 oz (Men’s 9/Women’s 8). That’s just about a half ounce less than the current Men’s model and over three quarters of an ounce less than the current Women’s model.
- Gender-Specific Design: Subtle changes to the outsole vary flex points for Men’s and Women’s models, and the PRO-MODERATOR pronation control system also receives tweaks based on gender.

Love the review. I really love reading those reviews that talks about how the shoe is made. Makes me feel secured buying it. Indeed, Adidas makes the best shoes.
great design, wonderfull colors
Fantastic. Last year’s model was a little snug in the arch. I hope the women’s is going to be available in the Colorado scheme shown on the men’s
