I absolutely love these shoes! They have plenty of toe splay room and cushioning. They are very cushioned but it does not feel pillow like and slow you down. Highly recommend!

I bought this shoe after finally wearing out my Novablast 3 which was my favorite shoe ever up until this point. It takes the feel and fit of the 3 but makes it feel bouncier but more cushioned at the same time. I've been loving this shoe for my long runs with tempo mixed in. So far it's done everything I've asked it to do and still feels great!

Not cheap, but might be the best value for money in the running shoe space.

Fit seems true to size. Very lightweight, about half the weight of most other shoes I have used in the past. Will definitely buy again.

The shoes are very comfortable. It is plush and good for those who work on their feet for several hours.

I am very impressed and satisfied with the NOVABLAST 5. I haven't worn Asics for a number of years and when I did I wore the Kayanos. These are much lighter, they look great (white and blue), and they provide a fantastic feel on the foot. Will likely purchase again!

Ordered the shoes online, but looking for them in-store was still a pleasant experience, staff was helpful and honest. Overall the Novablast 5s are incredible for all things exercise-related, walking, running and more. They have great support and are very comfortable.

If you, like me, are a woman with wide feet you know that men's shoes are usually the only good fit. But even men's shoes feel slimmer lately so I was relieved to find this wide version of my size. Fits perfectly, though I'm still getting used to the taller heel of running shoes!

I ordered the wide Novablast. Quality made shoe. The toe box ended up being too big for me though. There may be a lack of arch support as well. It feels like my feet sink in the middle if I'm not running on the ball of my foot. the tongue is a bit thin and unwieldy. I think it's probably just not the right shoe for me.

Tried them in women's normal size (B width) as well but decided to go with men's normal (D width, equivalent to a women's wide). I also tried other shoes and they all had elastic bands holding the shoe tounge in place and it puts pressure on top of foot. These shoes do not have that and its built in to the shoe. So very comfortable.

I have another colorway in Novablast 5 which are a men's 7. I had to return these and repurchase 7.5. These are comfortable out of the box but it takes maybe 50-60 miles to break in the foam, then they really shine.

I love these shoes. I can run tempo runs in these, as well, as long run over 12 miles. Very cushioning, and comfortable. Probably the best running Ive tried, in a while, and I ran in a lot of them. Will definitely buy again.

So first off, I love this shoe! Its cushy and a little bouncy, perfect for someone with foot problems like me. Its super comfortable. The one thing I think Asics dropped the ball on here is the insole. Theres not very much to it other than keeping you from feeling the stitching underneath. I replaced it with some Cloudsoles and that made a significant difference.
