Asics Novablast 6 Women's review: what runners say
Fit
True to size, roomy but not loose toebox. One tester reports the US 10.5 runs long compared to usual.
Feel
FF Blast Max and FF Turbo Squared combination in the forefoot: soft and responsive, with noticeable push at toe-off. Favors midfoot and forefoot strikers.
Durability
Outsole prone to fast wear; foam loses resilience around 300–400 km. Full use estimated up to roughly 600 km, then suitable for easy paces only.
Best for
Daily trainer for neutral or mild overpronators. Works for long runs, recovery, and moderate paces; not the primary choice for heel strikers or those needing high stability.
Weak points
Reduced stability compared to the previous version due to the narrowed base. Wet and slick-surface grip not among the best in the category.
