FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for speed work?
Yes, while primarily a daily trainer, the responsive FF TURBO SQUARED pod makes them capable of tempo runs and intervals.
How do I determine my correct size?
The Novablast 6 fits true to size. We recommend measuring your foot at the end of the day when feet are naturally at their largest.
Can I use these for walking?
Absolutely. The high level of cushioning makes them an excellent choice for walking and all-day standing comfort.
Is the outsole durable enough for gravel paths?
The AHAR LO rubber is durable, but these are primarily road shoes. They are fine for light gravel, but avoid sharp, large rocks.
How often should I replace the Novablast 6?
Most runners find that the foam and outsole integrity are optimal for 400-500 miles of use.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slippage in the heel
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to secure the ankle collar more tightly against the heel.
Upper material showing signs of dirt buildup
Gently scrub with mild soap and cold water, then pat dry with a clean cloth.
Foam feeling less responsive over time
Ensure the shoes have 24-48 hours to recover between runs, as this allows the foam cells to decompress.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Highly breathable upper material for temperature control
- Secure midfoot fit prevents internal foot shifting

Cons

- Not intended for trail or off-road technical terrain
- May require a break-in period to optimize the foam response
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, start by adjusting the laces through the gusseted tongue wing to achieve a snug midfoot lock. Because the upper is woven for breathability, it is essential to keep the shoes clean to maintain airflow.
- Care: Avoid machine washing. Instead, use a soft brush or a damp cloth to wipe away mud and debris from the upper. Let the shoes air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent foam degradation.
- Compatibility: These trainers are best suited for neutral runners. If you currently use custom orthotics, ensure you remove the factory-provided insole before inserting your own to maintain proper heel depth and fit.
