How settled the rating is against every other rated shoe. A shoe can rate high on confidence with relatively few reviews of its own when its product line has a long record and external ratings from retailer sites agree. Confidence will score low when we have few ratings or when runners disagree.

Pros

One reviewer at 70 miles a week liked it enough to buy three pairs.
Both reviewers so far rate every dimension 4.5 out of 5.

Cons

That same reviewer got a hole in the toe box near the big toe on all three pairs, something he says has never happened to him in another trainer.
At 11.8 oz in the men's build and 10.0 oz in the women's it sits in the heavy weight band.
The Supernova Sequence 4 and 5 score 63 and 55, so the line has not rated well.

Supernova Sequence 6 rates 75. This shoe has very low certainty. See how we rate shoes.

Overall

I have had three pairs and all have formed a minor hole in the toe box near the big toe... I have never had it happen before in any training shoe and I do not have any issues such as hammer toes, etc. I do not train for anything specifically, so I run just casual miles. adidas has said they will stand behind the shoes.
