The NOVABLAST™ 6 running shoe is designed to help provide a supreme energy return at toe-off and better traction underfoot.
Our energetic FF BLAST™ MAX foam with a FF TURBO™ SQUARED trampoline pod in the forefoot are positioned in the midsole. Together, these technologies help create softer landings and a more energized bounce during your training.
The outsole is updated with ASICSGRIP™ outsole rubber in the forefoot area. This application helps you experience greater traction and a more confident stride throughout your run.
Designed For Neutral / Underpronation
Neutral Pronation

-
Foot Type
Normal size arches -
Push Off
There is even distribution from the front of the foot. -
Considered Injuries
Less likely due to effective shock absorption, but neutral runners are not immune to injury. -
How your foot contacts the ground
The foot lands on outside of the heel, then rolls inward (pronates) to absorb shock and support body weight.
Underpronation

-
Foot Type
High arches -
Push Off
The pressure is on smaller toes on outside of foot. -
Considered Injuries
Plantar fasciitis, shin splints, ankle strain. -
How your foot contacts the ground
The outer side of the heel hits the ground at an increased angle with little or no normal pronation, causing a large transmission of shock through the lower leg.
