FAQs
What type of runner is the Novablast 5 best suited for?
The Novablast 5 is ideal for adult male runners looking for a cushioned and responsive shoe for daily training, tempo runs, and longer distances.
How do I clean my ASICS Novablast 5 trainers?
Wipe them clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Do not machine wash.
Is the cushioning too soft or too firm?
The FF BLAST PLUS ECO cushioning aims for a balance between softness for impact absorption and responsiveness for energy return. It's generally considered a well-cushioned but energetic feel.
Can I use these for racing?
While they offer good responsiveness, they are primarily designed for training. For competitive racing, ASICS offers specific racing shoe models.
How does the tongue wing construction help?
The tongue wing construction is designed to improve midfoot lockdown and reduce tongue slippage, leading to a more secure and comfortable fit during your run.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Warranty information typically varies by retailer and region. Please check with the point of purchase for specific warranty details.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try wearing them with different types of running socks. Allow for a break-in period of a few runs.
Traction seems poor
Check the outsole for embedded debris like mud or stones. Clean the outsole with a brush. Ensure you are running on appropriate surfaces; performance may vary on very wet or slippery conditions.
Upper mesh feels restrictive
The engineered mesh is designed for a snug, supportive fit. Ensure the laces are not over-tightened. The fit should provide support without constricting blood flow.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The ASICS Novablast 5 trainers are ready to use straight out of the box. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. It is recommended to wear them for shorter distances initially to allow your feet to adapt to the cushioning and fit.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed for running and general athletic activities. They are most compatible with paved surfaces like roads and tracks, but also offer sufficient grip for light, dry trails.
Care: To maintain the condition of your Novablast 5 trainers:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher marks, use a damp cloth with a mild detergent. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
