FAQs

What type of running are these shoes best for?

The ASICS Superblast trainers are optimized for performance running, including speedwork, tempo runs, interval training, and long-distance running where energy return and responsiveness are crucial.

How does the FF BLAST TURBO foam differ from other ASICS foams?

FF BLAST TURBO foam is ASICS's softest and most responsive foam, designed to provide maximum energy return and a trampoline-like effect to propel you forward.

Is the propulsive plate noticeable during a run?

Yes, the propulsive plate is designed to work with the foam to create a noticeable 'rolling' sensation and enhance forward momentum, contributing to a more efficient stride.

Can I use these shoes for everyday casual wear?

While comfortable, their advanced performance features and design are best utilized for running. For extended casual walking, a shoe with a softer, more forgiving midsole might be more suitable.

How durable is the AHARPLUS outsole?

AHARPLUS rubber is a high-abrasion rubber compound that offers enhanced durability, providing excellent traction and longevity under normal running conditions.

What is the Trusstic System and what does it do?

The Trusstic System is a component in the midfoot area of the shoe that provides stability by preventing excessive twisting of the shoe, offering support during your stride.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Generally, ASICS running shoes aim for a true-to-size fit. However, individual foot shapes vary, so trying them on or consulting a size chart is always recommended for the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Unusual rubbing or hot spots

Ensure correct sizing. Try wearing different socks. If the issue persists, the shoe may not be the right fit for your foot shape. Consider trying a different model or width.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

The foams are designed for performance and may feel firmer as they break in. If the cushioning feels significantly degraded, it may be time to consider replacement after extensive use.

Traction issues on wet surfaces

While the AHARPLUS outsole is durable, traction on extremely wet or slick surfaces can vary. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. For the best grip in wet conditions, run cautiously.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear running shoes. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. It's recommended to wear them for a short run initially to gauge the fit and feel before committing to a long distance.

Compatibility: Designed for male adult runners of all levels, particularly those focused on performance. They are compatible with standard running socks.

Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your ASICS Superblast trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a soft brush or dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cold water with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a clothes dryer, as this can warp the shape and materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid leaving them in hot environments like a car for extended periods.
