Customer Reviews ASICS Novablast 4

I typically wear a women’s 8 in regular walking sneakers but will often go a half size up for running distances. In order to be sure, I ordered the 8 and 8.5 to compare. The 8 fit exactly, which for running purposes, does not allow for swelling and movement of my toe box. The 8.5 offered this space without my heel rising. I did my first 6 mile run today and am glad I had the extra space.

I like ASICS. I have several pair and have had many pairs through the years. These are not for me. There is a strange hump in the arch area that is just too unusual for me to get used to……. Going back

Size 7.5. Tried hoka Clifton and didn't like. This one fits my foot so much better. great shoe

Absolutely perfect on my feet right out of the box! I have worn ASICS before, but this is my first time with the Novablast style. I have a supination foot fall. These ASICS were comfortable right out of the box. I wore them in the house for about an hour or so while working from home, then cut the tags and off I went for a 1-1/2 mile walk. They were so comfortable, I just did not want to take them off the whole evening. I ordered my normal size for running/exercise shoes, size 9, worn with normal thickness exercise socks. My prior experience with ASICS is that the toe box is roomy, I like that but some wearers may not. The heel padding keeps the shoe nicely snug on my heel with no rubbing (no blisters!). These shoes are lightweight.

Really love these shoes. I tried another brand last time and went right back to ASCIS. Can't beat them for comfort and wear. Love the style and fit. Thanks!

Omg these are the ultimate shoe. I have tried every Asics and these are so amazing. Keeps feet from tipping to side. Stands me up straight. I have very flat wide feet and a bad back. These help all that. I can walk down the street so well. I am 76 and boy these save me in every way. I have a back up pair in case I can't get them in the future. Buy them don't even think about it.

I sized up half a size

Best shoes ever stable, light, comfortable great for any type of runs.

Comfortable shoes. I did not need to break them in. My thicker orthotics fit and I walked at the gym, and they were comfortable. The style is wider around the toes, and I wear a 12, so the dark color helps esthetically.

Sizing was similar to other running shoes. More bounce than the brooks ghost 14 which I’m getting used to.

Seem stiff compared to Hoka.

So light but so cushioned! I love these!

These are by far my favorite Asics! I have about 18 pair of different ones. They don't crush my toes ever (and I always buy 1/2 size bigger). Great stability for Tabata, too. Any issues with balance, these are the shoes for you. Also, the toe box has padding so my arthritic feet don't feel any pain. Can't say that about the Kayanos or the Nimbus. My only gripe would be the tongue needing to be held in place to put them on. One more thing, I teach in a gym and get tons of compliments on all my shoes, but more so on these. And Yes, I like all the colorful ones!

Such a great light weight shoe. Feels like your not wearing one with lots of comfort for long wear days! Amazing would totally buy a pair in every color!

Love these shoes. This is my 4th pair. These run big for me compared to brooks. Wear 7 in brooks had to get a 6 in these. Extremely comfortable and great running shoes.

I wanted to try these instead of my Hoka Bondi's I usually get, and what I've bought for years. It was always difficult to find a color combination I liked in Hokas. My first time wearing the Novablasts, I went for my usual 4 mile walk and love them... no break-in period. If you want to try a different option to Hoka's... these shoe's are what you should get. I got the navy/pink shoes, and I love the color-they look exactly like what I saw online. I do have a normal arch and my feet are slightly wide, but not wide enough to order the "wide" shoes. I walk and stand a lot at my job, and I walk a lot outside of work, also. I still love my Hoka's, but now I have a different option.
