Full details

FAQs
Is the Novablast 6 suitable for marathon distances?
Yes, the combination of FF BLAST MAX cushioning and the energy-returning trampoline pod makes them well-suited for long-distance training.
How does the sizing run?
The Novablast 6 generally follows standard athletic footwear sizing; if you typically wear a specific size in ASICS, it is recommended to stick with that size.
Can these be used for trail running?
While the ASICSGRIP outsole provides excellent traction, these shoes are primarily designed for road use; they may lack the rock protection required for technical trails.
How long should the cushioning last?
With standard use, the midsole foam is typically designed to provide consistent performance for 300 to 500 miles.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can cause the adhesives to fail and the foam to lose its structural integrity. Always spot clean by hand.
Troubleshooting
Upper feels too tight across the midfoot
Adjust the lacing pattern to be looser through the eyelets over the midfoot arch, utilizing the tongue wing for stability instead of tightness.
Feeling of 'slipping' in the heel
Try a runner's loop (heel lock) lacing technique using the top-most eyelet to secure the heel cup against the foot.
Pros and Cons

- High energy return and responsive bounce
- Breathable and lightweight upper material

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your ASICS Novablast 6 trainers, it is essential to ensure a proper fit during your first wear. Use the tongue wing construction to adjust the midfoot tension for a secure wrap before lacing up.
Care Instructions:
- Wipe down the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt and debris after muddy runs.
- Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as high heat can damage the foam cushioning structure.
- Air dry the shoes in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
- Rotate your shoes with another pair to allow the foam to fully decompress and recover between runs.
