The ASICS Novablast 5 – Men’s Neutral Road Running Shoes!
Built for bounce, made to move. The ASICS NOVABLAST™ 5 is a lightweight, responsive trainer made for runners chasing speed and energy over shorter distances, intervals, or race-day bursts. With FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO cushioning underfoot and a redesigned trampoline outsole, it’s all about that spring-loaded toe-off and soft landings that don’t slow you down.
The breathable jacquard mesh upper flexes with your foot and keeps things cool, while the tongue wing construction locks in fit and reduces slip. Whether you're pushing the pace on your lunch run or hitting the line at Parkrun, this shoe delivers the kind of ride that makes you want to keep going.

Cushion
-
The material that absorbs the impact against the ground. The more cushioning utilised, the softer a shoe will feel underfoot.
---------------
Neutral Support
-
Normal sized Arches.
-
During push off there is an even distribution from the front of the foot.
-
The foot lands on the outside of the heel, then rolls inward to absorb the shock and support body weight.
---------------
Drop
-
The difference from the heel of the shoe to the forefoot.
-
Shoes with a higher heel drop tend to be preferred by runners that land heel-first.
-
Shoes with a lower heel drop are often favoured by forefoot or midfoot strikers.
