Drawing from Japan’s incredible long-distance relay running culture, the new ASICS EKIDEN Pack delivers energy that truly moves both body and mind. Experience the spirit of team and tradition in every stride.

Dynamic comfort meets responsive bounce. ASICS continues to improve upon one of 2024 best-selling daily trainer. The Novablast 5 gets a new FF Blast Max midsole - softer, lighter and bouncier for any runs in the week.

The engineered jacquard mesh upper is lighter and more breathable, while the updated tongue wing construction offers a more secure fit. The Novablast 5 also gets a roomier toe box, works especially well for those with higher-volume foot.

The Novablast 5 is a great choice for those looking for a high cushion running shoe that is soft, light and energised to do a wide range of paces and distances, from easy runs to long runs. You will enjoy the smooth trampoline-inspired rocker geometry and the premium plush comfort.
