FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for trail running?

The NOVABLAST 6 is primarily designed for road running. While it can handle light, maintained paths, it lacks the aggressive lugs required for technical trail terrain.

How should I clean my ASICS NOVABLAST 6?

Use a damp cloth and mild soap to wipe down the exterior. Let them air dry in a well-ventilated room.

Is the size accurate for these trainers?

The fit follows standard athletic shoe sizing. We recommend choosing your usual running shoe size.

Can I use my own orthotic insoles with these shoes?

Yes, the original insoles are removable and replaceable with custom orthotics.

How often should I replace these running shoes?

Typically, you should consider replacing them every 300 to 500 miles, depending on the intensity and surface of your runs.

Troubleshooting

Feeling discomfort in the arch area

Try adjusting the lacing technique to provide more midfoot support or consider using a professional-grade insert.

Upper material showing premature wear

Ensure your toenails are trimmed short to prevent internal snagging and friction against the fabric.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-energy return for a smooth ride
  • Breathable upper ensures lasting comfort
  • Lightweight build reduces physical effort over long distances
  • Suitable for a wide range of athletic abilities

Cons

  • High stack height may not suit those preferring a minimal ground feel
  • Cushioning is focused on comfort, which may feel too soft for some sprinters

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal performance, verify that the shoe fits with a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the toe box. When lacing, ensure even tension across the midfoot to allow the internal structure to lock your foot in place without restricting circulation.

Care Instructions:

  1. Remove surface dirt after each run using a soft brush.
  2. If the trainers become wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material deformation.
  3. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can degrade the cushioning foam and adhesive bonding.
  4. Replace the trainers every 300 to 500 miles depending on your running surface and body weight to maintain peak performance.
