Full details

The ASICS Novablast 5 is designed for adult runners who prioritize a responsive, energetic ride without sacrificing comfort. Featuring advanced cushioning technology, these trainers provide a soft landing and a springy rebound that suits various training intensities, though runners requiring heavy stability support may find the plush nature of the sole too soft for certain terrains.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?

The Novablast 5 is generally considered a neutral trainer. Those with severe flat feet or overpronation may benefit from an orthotic insert or a dedicated stability shoe.

Can I use these for trail running?

These are primarily designed for road and paved surfaces. While they can handle light gravel paths, they lack the aggressive lugs required for technical trails.

How long should I expect these to last?

Typically, performance running shoes last between 300 to 500 miles, depending on your weight, running surface, and individual gait.

How do I check my size?

Measure your feet at the end of the day when they are at their largest and consult the ASICS size guide to ensure a comfortable fit.

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, machine washing can damage the foam and structural integrity of the shoe. Hand cleaning is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Feeling of slipping or heel lift

Try using the 'runner's loop' or 'lock lacing' technique with the top eyelets to secure your heel.

Upper material showing signs of dirt

Gently scrub with a soft brush, warm water, and mild soap. Allow to air dry away from direct sunlight.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent energy return and responsive feel
  • Breathable upper keeps feet cool
  • High-quality cushioning for impact protection
  • Versatile design suitable for varied training paces

Cons

  • May feel less stable for overpronators
  • Plush cushioning may not suit those preferring a firm ground feel
  • Lighter material choice requires careful handling to prevent snagging

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Novablast 5 trainers, loosen the laces completely when putting them on or taking them off to prevent heel counter damage. Ensure your sizing is correct, as proper fit is essential for the cushioning to function as intended. For care, keep the shoes away from extreme heat sources such as radiators; if they become wet, stuff them with newspaper and allow them to air-dry naturally in a cool, ventilated area. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can break down the adhesives and midsole foam integrity.
