Extended Product Information

The ASICS Novablast 5 is engineered to elevate your daily running training. With its FF BLAST PLUS ECO midsole, each stride delivers a noticeable bounce, making it suitable for both short, energetic runs and longer distances where sustained comfort is key. For example, during a 10k run, you'll experience consistent cushioning and a propulsive feel that helps maintain your pace. The breathable upper ensures your feet remain cool and comfortable, even as mileage increases, preventing discomfort on warm days or during intense sessions. The shoe's outsole geometry actively supports a natural foot strike, guiding you through a stable roll-off, which translates to a more efficient use of energy over time. This makes it an excellent choice for runners focused on improving their running economy and enjoying a dynamic, comfortable ride.

SetupThe ASICS Novablast 5 requires minimal setup. Simply ensure you choose the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. It is a neutral running shoe, designed for runners with neutral pronation. If you typically require stability shoes for overpronation, this model might not offer the necessary support. Try on the shoes, walk, and perform light jogging to assess the fit before your first full run. Ensure a snug fit in the heel and midfoot, with adequate room for your toes to splay.### CompatibilityThese shoes are designed for road running and light track work. Their cushioning and energy return are optimized for hard surfaces. While suitable for various training types, they are particularly beneficial for daily mileage, tempo runs, and longer runs where cushioning and responsiveness are paramount.### CareTo prolong the life of your ASICS Novablast 5 shoes:- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For tougher stains, use a mild soap and cold water mixture, gently scrubbing with a cloth or soft brush. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing, as this can damage materials and adhesives.- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources (like radiators or tumble dryers), which can warp materials or cause adhesives to break down.- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.- Rotation: If you run frequently, consider rotating between two pairs of shoes. This allows the cushioning to fully decompress and recover between runs, extending the lifespan of each pair.
