ASICS Novablast 3 Running Shoes
The focus for the NOVABLAST 3 Running Shoes was to make it lighter and more comfortable. The intention for this trim level approach was to make it look as good in the streets as it does on race day.
Jacquard Mesh Upper
Enhancing the comfort and breathability of your feet, the Novablast 3 Running Shoes have a jacquard mesh upper, ensuring a constant flow of air enters your shoes, allowing your feet to remain cosy at all times. Not only this, but the mesh construction ensures that feet won't overheat, and wicks moisture rapidly to prevent feet from getting sweaty and uncomfortable. The shoes also have a tongue wing construction, which helps to improve the fit and reduces tongue movement when running. This component is reinforced with a more supportive heel design to help guide the foot with more control through your gait cycle. Alongside this, a traditional lace-up system keeps your foot locked in and secure, preventing in-shoe slippage. The shoes also have reflective details to help improve visibility in low-light training conditions. At least 75% of the shoe's main upper material is made with recycled materials to reduce waste and carbon emissions.
FF BLAST PLUS Midsole
The midsole of the Novablast 3 Running Shoe has had an upgrade from the previous Novablast model and has been constructed using FlyteFoam Blast Plus cushioning which provides the perfect balance of lightweight and rebound properties. These layers of protection, bounce, and comfort provide you with unmatched shock absorption and a lively ride. Its reinforced, organic fibres let the material bounce back to its original shape after every run, so you can train harder, more frequently and for longer without the worry that your shoes might not be able to take it. Additionally, the shoes have a removable sockliner, supplying your feet with an extra layer of cushioning, and have also been produced with solution dyeing which reduces water usage, and carbon emissions.
AHAR Outsole
A trampoline-inspired AHAR Rubber Outsole provides twice the abrasion resistance of the traditional outsole rubber, for improved durability without sacrificing properties like traction. Supreme grip and traction are guaranteed with the AHAR outsole. ASICS High Abrasion Rubber is a tough rubber compound used in heavy-contact or high-wear areas helping to cut down on excessive wear. The high abrasion outsole provides a strong grip and works to protect itself from damage, and protect users from losing control and slipping. Creating a strong bond with the ground beneath it, the outsole allows you to stay in full control at all times.
