FAQs
Is the Novablast 5 suitable for wide feet?
The standard construction fits most neutral foot shapes; if you have very wide feet, it is recommended to try them on in-store for size accuracy.
Can I use these for marathon racing?
Yes, they are suitable for long-distance training and road racing, provided you are comfortable with the higher stack height.
How long should these trainers last?
Most running shoes of this caliber last between 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and surface conditions.
Does the shoe provide arch support?
The Novablast 5 is designed as a neutral trainer, meaning it provides cushioning rather than active corrective arch support.
Are they machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the structural integrity of the foam. Clean by hand only.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Try using the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to secure the heel lock.
Material showing signs of wear
Ensure you are rotating your trainers with another pair to allow the midsole foam 24-48 hours to decompress.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Novablast 5 trainers, proper care is essential.
- Fit: Ensure you have a thumb's width of space at the front of the toe box for optimal comfort.
- Usage: These are optimized for paved surfaces and treadmills. Avoid usage in rocky or mud-heavy environments to protect the outsole tread.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt using a soft-bristled brush. Hand wash with mild soap and cold water if necessary; never submerge the shoes fully or use a washing machine.
- Drying: Air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the cushioning materials.
