FAQs

Are the ASICS Novablast 4 suitable for marathon running?

Yes, the Novablast 4's superior cushioning and energetic feel make them well-suited for marathon distances, providing comfort and reducing fatigue over long mileage.

What is the main difference between Novablast 4 and previous versions?

The Novablast 4 features updated FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO cushioning for enhanced softness and energy return, along with a refined upper for improved comfort and breathability.

Can these shoes be used for gym workouts?

While they offer good cushioning, the Novablast 4 is primarily optimized for road running. For gym workouts involving lateral movements or heavy lifting, a more stable training shoe might be preferable.

How do I know if I have the right size?

You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The fit should be snug around the heel and midfoot, with enough room in the toe box.

How durable is the AHARPLUS™ outsole?

AHARPLUS™ is a high-abrasion rubber compound designed for exceptional durability, offering significant resistance to wear and tear, especially on road surfaces.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the Novablast 4 features a breathable mesh upper and is not waterproof. They are designed for ventilation and will not protect against significant water exposure.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have the correct size. Try loosening the laces and relacing them to distribute pressure more evenly. If still uncomfortable, consider exchanging for a larger size or wide fit if available.

Slipping during runs

Check that the outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. Ensure the laces are tied securely. If the issue persists, the shoes may not be suitable for very wet or slippery conditions.

Discomfort in the arch

While designed for neutral support, some users may benefit from aftermarket insoles. Consult with a running specialist if arch pain persists.

  • Breathable upper keeps feet cool.
  • Durable outsole offers reliable traction and longevity.
  • Smooth transition from landing to push-off.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The ASICS Novablast 4 arrives ready to wear. Ensure you have the correct UK size for a comfortable fit. It is recommended to wear them for a short walk or jog initially to acclimate your feet to the shoe.

Compatibility: These shoes are designed as neutral running shoes and are best suited for road running and treadmill use. They are compatible with most standard athletic socks.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Gently clean the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  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 tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Outsole: Brush off any excessive dirt or debris from the outsole after each run.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
