FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?
Yes, the NOVABLAST 6 is designed for daily training and offers enough cushioning and durability to handle high-mileage marathon prep.
Can I use these for trail running?
These trainers are optimized for road and track surfaces. While they can handle light gravel, they lack the aggressive lugs required for technical trails.
How often should I replace my trainers?
It is generally recommended to replace your running shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your weight, running style, and the surfaces you frequent.
Are they true to size?
The NOVABLAST 6 generally follows standard athletic sizing; however, if you wear thick running socks, consider that space might be slightly tighter.
What is the primary benefit of the reactive sole?
The reactive sole is engineered to compress upon impact and spring back during the toe-off phase, which helps conserve energy and improve running efficiency.
How do I best clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for spot cleaning. Never submerge the shoes completely.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slippage inside the shoe
Adjust the lacing pattern to a runner's loop to better lock the heel in place.
Cushioning feels too soft or unstable
Ensure the shoes are laced snugly to provide better structural support for your foot arch.
Accumulation of debris in the mesh
Gently tap the shoes together or use a soft-bristled brush to clear dust and grit from the breathable upper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, ensure you have selected your correct UK adult size. Before your first run, check that the laces are tightened evenly across the bridge of the foot to secure the fit. For care, avoid machine washing or drying, as these processes can break down the adhesives and cushioning foam. Instead, remove surface dirt with a soft brush and clean the exterior using a cloth dampened with mild soap and cool water. Allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the integrity of the foam.
