Men's Asics Novablast 6

The NOVABLAST® 6 running shoe is designed to help provide a supreme energy return at toe-off and better traction underfoot. Our energetic FF BLAST™ MAX foam with a FF TURBO™ SQUARED trampoline pod in the forefoot are positioned in the midsole. Together, these technologies help create softer landings and a more energized bounce during your training. The outsole is updated with ASICSGRIP™ outsole rubber in the forefoot area. This application helps you experience greater traction and a more confident stride throughout your run.
