The ASICS Novablast 5 Women’s Running Shoes
If you’re chasing a lively, responsive ride on your runs, the ASICS Novablast 5 for women is built to deliver. These neutral road running shoes are perfect for shorter runs, tempo sessions, or race-day efforts, offering springy energy underfoot without compromising comfort.
The FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO midsole cushions every step and gives that signature trampoline-like toe-off, helping you move efficiently and feel lighter on your feet. The engineered jacquard mesh upper flexes with your foot and keeps airflow steady, while the tongue wing construction and snug fit lock your foot in place when you pick up the pace.
Whether it’s a Parkrun PB, a lunchtime loop, or high-intensity interval session, these shoes make every run feel effortless and energetic.

---------------
Cushioning
-
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.
