FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?
Yes, the Novablast 5 is specifically engineered for daily training and provides enough support and comfort for higher mileage efforts including marathon preparations.
How should I clean the white mesh upper?
Use a soft-bristled brush or a mild detergent solution on a damp cloth to spot clean, then allow to air dry away from direct sunlight.
Is the Novablast 5 suitable for trail running?
These trainers are primarily designed for road and track surfaces. They may lack the necessary lug depth and protection required for technical trail terrain.
Does this shoe provide arch support?
The Novablast 5 offers neutral support, making it ideal for runners with normal to high arches who do not require intensive stability features.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on the intensity of your use and the wear pattern of the outsole.
Troubleshooting
Feeling instability during sharp turns
Ensure the laces are securely fastened to lock the midfoot in place, as the high-stack cushioning can feel less stable at very high speeds.
Midsole foam feels damp or dirty
Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap; never submerge the shoes completely in water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your Novablast 5 trainers requires proper care and fitment. Ensure the laces are snug but not restrictive to allow for natural foot swelling during exercise. For maintenance, avoid machine washing, which can damage the midsole foam's performance properties. Instead, use a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove dirt from the outsole and mesh upper. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can degrade the cushioning materials over time. If the shoes become wet, remove the insoles and stuff the interior with newspaper to draw out moisture naturally.
