Novablast 6 Men's Road Running Shoes

The men's version of the ASICS NOVABLAST 6 is a road running shoe built on a FlyteFoam BLAST MAX midsole, a FlyteFoam TURBO SQUARED trampoline pod, an ASICSGRIP outsole and an engineered woven upper.

It is an everyday trainer for road running, with neutral support. It sits among the faster neutral road shoes and has high cushioning, so it can take your daily mileage and still give you energy back at toe-off.

Product Highlights

• Heel drop: An 8mm heel-to-toe drop. This moderate drop sits between flat and high-drop shoes and gives you a smooth heel-to-toe transition.
• Midsole foam: The FlyteFoam BLAST MAX midsole combines cloud-like softness with a responsive energy return. Your landings feel softer and each step gives back energy.
• Forefoot pod: A FlyteFoam TURBO SQUARED trampoline pod sits in the forefoot of the midsole. It adds bounce as you roll forward to push off.
• Upper: The engineered woven upper is a lightweight, breathable material that needs fewer extra overlays. With fewer layers over your foot, air moves through more freely as you run.
• Tongue wing construction: A winged tongue wraps the midfoot. It holds your midfoot securely and stops the tongue shifting during your run.
• Heel counter: An internal heel counter supports the rear of the shoe. It keeps your heel steady in the shoe with each footstrike.
• Insole: An OrthoLite X-55 insole sits under your foot. It adds a cushioned layer between your foot and the midsole.
• Outsole: ASICSGRIP outsole rubber covers the forefoot. It grips on a variety of terrain, so your stride feels more confident.
• Lower-hardness rubber: Softer rubber sits in key areas of the outsole. It gives you reliable traction and still holds up to wear.
• Reflective details: Reflective elements feature on the shoe. They make you easier to see when light is low.
