[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing shoes with a LOT of support, making you feel like you are flying. Works for trail running and road running, giving you a stable ride in both. Bonus that they look wonderful as well, i chose the green ones.

Good fit and comfort

I’m a slim footed size 7 (D width) and these were a perfect fit with plenty of scope for wider feet. Great cushioning - like running on clouds (almost!). Only downsides for me are 1) the foam inner makes my feet hotter than my previous brand (but there’s plenty of mesh in the upper to allow the air to circulate) and 2) no significant arch support, so I’ve inserted ones under the liner. Very happy otherwise!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My companion in uptempo runs! When it comes to the Novablast 5 shoe, all I think of is that during my preparation for the 2025 Milano Marathon back in April, it guided me through all of my runs (mostly at 150bpm) with a tempo reaching almost below 4'/km. The FF BlastMax foam feels bouncier than ever. This shoe will also help you in some of your intervals.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent running shoes. I’m an Asics user for some years now but it’s my first time trying the Novablast and I’m so happy with them, very comfortable and loved the color.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] this is one of the softer shoes I’ve tested over the past year—a big positive for me. The cushioning and stability make it a strong choice for heavier runners or those seeking a reliable shoe for long runs. I choose the white colour and it’s looks amazing 🤩.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Light, bouncy, and fun to run in. The FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO cushioning gives it great energy return, and the improved upper offers better lockdown. Great for tempo sessions or daily runs when you want a springy, responsive feel.

Best first marathon shoe for me!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After 5 years with my old pair (from another brand), I finally upgraded to the Asics Novablast and I couldn’t be happier. From the first run, I noticed how much softer and bouncier they feel. My runs feel calmer and more effortless, and I finish with less fatigue and soreness than before. It honestly makes running so much more enjoyable. I will run my first marathon in them!

Novablast 5
Originally posted on asics.co.uk

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been running in the Asics Novablast 5, and they feel light, springy, and fast. The bounce from the cushioning makes every step energetic, and they’re comfortable enough for long runs too. The fit is snug and secure, though the high energy return might feel a bit much for easy recovery days.

Still one of my favourites

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really good shoe in my opinion. Had the Novablast 4 before and was very happy with it! Its a very bouncy, but also bulky (lightweight) shoe! I noticed that because it has such a big bounce my feet started to cramp every now and then, trying to reach for more grip. Therefore I decided to go with another model this time, and to give my feet some variety- but would 100% recommend, I oved them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought these to swap out my hoka Clifton 9’s, absolutely love them, not a single blister since wearing them and I used to get them daily!! Super comfy and light weight, managed to PB my 5k twice since having them. I sized up half a size and I’ve had no issues with rubbing so far. Good for short and long distances would definitely recommend
