Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness on first wear
The NOVABLAST 5 may feel a bit firm initially. Wear them for short runs or around the house to break them in. The cushioning will become more pronounced with use.
Traction feels reduced on very wet surfaces
While the outsole provides good grip, extreme wet conditions can affect traction. Exercise caution and reduce speed on very slick surfaces.
Midsole feels too high or unstable
The maximalist design is intended for a cushioned feel. If you prefer a lower profile, consider a different ASICS model. Ensure the correct size is worn, as a poor fit can exacerbate feelings of instability.
