About this product
The ASICS Novablast 5 is a men's training running shoe built around FF Blast Max cushioning, which delivers a lightweight, energetic ride with softer landings and a more responsive toe-off. The midsole and outsole geometry draws inspiration from a trampoline design to encourage a pronounced bounce-back feel underfoot. A total heel height of 41.5mm and total forefoot height of 33.5mm provide a generous stack while maintaining a 8mm drop profile suited to everyday training. The engineered jacquard mesh upper offers stretch and ventilation, and a tongue wing construction reduces tongue movement for a more secure fit. Ahar Lo outsole rubber contributes traction, softness, and durability across varied surfaces. Reflective details support visibility in low-light conditions. On the sustainability side, at least 75% of the main upper material is recycled, and the sockliner uses a solution dyeing process that cuts water usage by roughly 33% and carbon emissions by roughly 45% compared to conventional dyeing methods. Available in a Lemon and White colorway, this shoe runs true to size.

What people are saying
Reviewers consistently praise the ASICS Novablast 5 for its supremely plush, bouncy ride, crediting the new FF BLAST MAX foam with delivering noticeably softer cushioning than previous versions. The lightweight jacquard mesh upper earns frequent compliments for breathability and a secure, comfortable fit. At $140, most testers consider it strong value compared to pricier cushioned trainers. The most common criticism is that the softer midsole reduces stability and weakens the rocker effect, making the shoe feel sluggish at faster paces and less suited to speed work. Reddit users also flag that the midsole can feel flat relatively early in its lifespan, and wet-surface traction is considered a weak point.
