FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The NOVABLAST 6 provides neutral support and significant cushioning, which many runners find comfortable; however, those with severe overpronation may prefer a model with additional stability features.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While primarily designed for running, the stable base allows for light gym work; however, they are not intended for heavy lifting or lateral movement drills.
How long should these trainers last?
Generally, running shoes like the NOVABLAST 6 provide peak cushioning for 300 to 500 miles, depending on running surface and individual weight.
Are they true to size?
ASICS generally follows standard sizing, though it is always recommended to leave a thumb's width of space at the front for toe comfort during impact.
What is the primary benefit of the mesh upper?
The mesh upper allows for superior ventilation, preventing the foot from overheating during long runs.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort or pressure points on the top of the foot
Adjust the lace tension; use a different lacing technique to relieve pressure on the bridge of the foot.
Shoes feeling slippery on wet surfaces
Ensure the outsole is free from debris; if conditions are extremely slick, reduce stride length to maintain better contact.
Noticeable odor accumulation after use
Remove the insoles after runs to allow both the shoe interior and the footbed to dry completely between sessions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, verify your sizing through a professional fitting, as proper lockdown is essential for utilizing the cushioning technology effectively. When cleaning your NOVABLAST 6 trainers, avoid machine washing, which can damage the foam structure. Instead, wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight or extreme heat sources, to preserve the integrity of the adhesive and cushioning materials.
