My verdicts
Adidas
Supernova Ease 2
I would not recommend this shoe for running at all, and launching it at ₹10,000 is highway robbery. Buy it only as a premium walking shoe, and for running spend about ₹1,000 more on a proper trainer like the Supernova Rise 3.
Avoid if: Avoid it if you want a shoe for running, even at the ₹4,500 sale price.

Cloud-Style Walking Shoe
I would not recommend these for running, but as trendy walking and casual shoes under ₹1,500 they are worth every penny.
Avoid if: Avoid it if you want a shoe for running.
