Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Superblast 2 Trainers are designed for adult runners who demand maximum responsiveness and comfort for their daily training sessions. These trainers provide an exceptionally high level of impact absorption and energy return through advanced midsole technologies, making them ideal for long-distance efforts; however, those seeking a minimalist or low-profile racing flat may find the plush, high-stack construction to be less ground-connected than they prefer.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for speed work?
Yes, the responsive FF TURBO PLUS foam makes these trainers capable of handling faster-paced training sessions alongside long-distance runs.
How do I ensure the right fit for the Superblast 2?
These trainers generally fit true to size. We recommend trying them on while wearing the specific socks you intend to use for your runs.
Can I use these for trail running?
These trainers are designed specifically for road and paved surfaces. They do not have the lug depth or protective rock plate needed for technical trails.
What is the benefit of the gusseted tongue?
The gusseted tongue keeps the tongue centered and secure, preventing it from sliding to the side during long-duration runs.
Should I wash these in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can compromise the structural integrity of the midsole and the specialized foam performance. Spot cleaning is recommended.
What makes the outsole 'trampoline-inspired'?
The outsole geometry is specifically shaped to compress and rebound rapidly, mimicking the energetic response of a trampoline.
Troubleshooting
Tongue shifting during runs
Ensure the gusseted tongue wings are pulled tight and laying flat against the top of your foot when tightening laces.
Upper material feels stiff
The engineered mesh is designed to be durable; a short 'break-in' period of 10-15 miles will typically soften the material to your foot's shape.
Visible scuffs on midsole
Gently clean scuffed areas with a mild soap solution and a soft cloth; avoid harsh solvents that could damage the foam.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, verify that the shoe size matches your standard running footwear fit, keeping in mind the secure midfoot lock provided by the gusseted tongue. For care, keep your trainers clean by wiping away loose dirt after use with a soft brush. If the trainers become wet, remove the sockliner and stuff the interior with newspaper to draw out moisture; air dry them away from direct heat sources like radiators. Avoid machine washing, as the heat and agitation can degrade the advanced foam composition and adhesive bonds of the midsole technology.
