FAQs
What is the weight of the ASICS Novablast 6?
The shoe weighs 253 grams.
What is the heel-to-toe drop of this model?
The Novablast 6 features an 8mm drop.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?
Yes, the high energy return and cushioning make them excellent for high-mileage training on roads.
How should I clean the woven upper?
Use a soft brush and mild soap with cold water to gently remove dirt. Air dry in a shaded area.
Is the Novablast 6 a stability or neutral shoe?
It is a neutral trainer designed for runners who do not require extra arch support for overpronation.
Can I use these for trail running?
The outsole is designed for road surfaces; it lacks the deep lug depth required for technical trail terrain.
Troubleshooting
Tongue shifting during long runs
Adjust the laces through the tongue loops and ensure the tongue wing is positioned flat against the arch before tightening.
Excessive wear on the outsole
Ensure you are using the shoes primarily on road surfaces; continuous use on abrasive surfaces like gravel can accelerate AHAR LO rubber wear.
Discomfort or hotspots
Try a different lacing technique, such as the runner's loop, to secure the heel and prevent friction inside the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS Novablast 6 trainers, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, perform short, easy runs for the first 20-30 miles to allow the foam and upper to contour to your feet.
- Cleaning: Hand wash using a soft-bristled brush, mild soap, and cold water. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can degrade the cushioning foam and adhesive bond.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, as UV rays can damage the engineered woven upper over time.
- Compatibility: These are neutral road shoes. If you require significant arch support or stability for overpronation, consult with a professional gait analyst to ensure these meet your specific biomechanical requirements.
