ASICS Novablast 4

I'll use this shoe for most runs/workouts that dont involve a track.  Solid/firm cushioning with a wide platform provides some stability.  I would like a bit more arch support, and the cush could be a bit springier.  The cush isnt dead...it just doesnt give you any pop/spring.

I've had 3 pairs of novablasts, and they are amazing. Responsive enough to use for some workouts and cushioned enough for easy too. They are durable. Fit: narrower than average in width, average in volume. Cushion: firmer and responsive than average. The lining of the shoe is more plush and padded than most. 

Overall good shoe, the foam is a bit firm but it works decent

I love the Novablast 4, it is bouncy but stable, durable enough for slow work, and quick enough for fast work. Workhorse. I rave about this shoe to anyone that will listen.

I love the Asics Nova Blast 4 but they cost a ton.  There are a lot budget friendly shoes that are nearly as good but I just cant get away from the Nova Blast.  The Blast are so soft and fast.  I use them for everything including workouts and easy runs.  Therefore, if you want one overall great par of shoes to do everything in I think these are great.

A shoe I can use for long runs, easy recovery days and some uptempo days.

Great so far. I had the 1 and 2 so it’s been awhile. 90 degrees yesterday and they were filled with sweat…summertime in Nebraska between the corn fields is no joke! Way more stable than the previous ones which is great because that was my biggest hit on the first two Novablasts. 50 miles so far and all between 3 and 7 miles. Great lockdown and the tongue is quite comfortable. Traction good with surfaces ranging from concrete to gravel and mud. Kind of a bright light green color which actually makes me feel excited to take them out! Looks good and well designed. The first run I had pressure on the middle forefoot on the bottom…that never came back and they feel broken in already. At $140 the price was right and I am happy with these shoes…I’ll probably buy again.

You can do pretty much everything in this shoe. You daily miles, tempo runs, even your speed sessions too. Great value for such an amazing shoe 

I tried a lot of daily trainers none of them are as good as the novablast it is a great shoe

But I love the cushion and comfort
