FAQs
Are the ASICS SUPERBLAST™ 2 suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the SUPERBLAST™ 2 is an excellent choice for marathon running due to its superior cushioning, energy return, and lightweight design, which help maintain comfort and reduce fatigue over long distances.
What is the main difference between SUPERBLAST™ 2 and previous versions?
The SUPERBLAST™ 2 features an enhanced midsole with a combination of FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO and FF TURBO™ PLUS cushioning, offering a softer, lighter, and bouncier feel compared to its predecessor.
Can I use these shoes for trail running?
These trainers are primarily designed for asphalt and pavement. While the outsole offers good grip, they are not specifically built for the demands of trail running, which requires more aggressive tread and protection.
What is the recommended surface for the SUPERBLAST™ 2?
The SUPERBLAST™ 2 is optimized for running on asphalt and pavement surfaces.
How do I clean my ASICS SUPERBLAST™ 2 trainers?
Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. For more thorough cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse and air dry. Avoid machine washing.
What is the weight of the ASICS SUPERBLAST™ 2?
The ASICS SUPERBLAST™ 2 weighs approximately 249 grams.
Is this shoe suitable for runners who overpronate?
The SUPERBLAST™ 2 is classified as a neutral shoe. It is best suited for runners with a neutral gait or those who supinate. Runners who significantly overpronate may benefit from a stability shoe.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting the lacing system, as different lacing techniques can alter the fit. Consider using thinner socks or breaking them in gradually on shorter runs.
Reduced bounce or responsiveness over time
Cushioning can degrade with heavy use. Ensure the shoes are clean and free of debris. If the performance has significantly decreased after extensive mileage, it may be time to consider replacement.
Slipping on wet surfaces
The AHARPLUS™ outsole provides good traction, but like all shoes, grip can be reduced on very wet or slippery surfaces. Run with caution in wet conditions.
Upper material feels abrasive
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them for shorter periods and ensure your socks provide adequate coverage. The materials should soften with use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The ASICS SUPERBLAST™ 2 trainers require no specific setup. Simply ensure you have the correct size for a comfortable fit. It is recommended to wear them for a short run initially to allow them to mold to your foot.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed for neutral runners and are best suited for use on asphalt and pavement surfaces. While the AHARPLUS™ outsole provides good grip, they are not optimized for trail running or highly technical terrain.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse thoroughly. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or dryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Rotation: For longevity, consider rotating between multiple pairs of running shoes to allow them to fully dry and recover between uses.
