Womens Novablast 5 - Tokyo

Novablast is back for round five. With a newly updated midsole and form-fitting construction, the ASICS Novablast 5 continues a tradition of lively, lightweight trainers.

The uppers move away from the engineered mesh of the previous version, instead bringing a jacquard woven construction. This gives a more comfortable and supportive fit which conforms to your foot. Padding around the heel protects your achilles and provides comfort for long runs.

Under-foot it's much the same ethos, with a familiar form that's achieved through a new material. Compared with Novablast 4, the fifth version introduces high-performance FF BLAST™ MAX foam for the most energetic midsole the series has ever seen. Without any change in weight, the Novablast 5 got a whole lot more bouncy.

Once again we find the Novablast series making a compelling case for the perfect everyday companion for uptempo training and short race distances.
