This model is the successor to the Novablast 4 and is designed for daily training runs with a focus on cushioning and energy return. The shoe features ASICS FlyteFoam Blast Plus midsole technology, which provides responsive cushioning that adapts to various running speeds and distances. The upper is made of technical mesh for breathability and a secure fit, while the AHAR Plus outsole offers durable grip on different surfaces. The Novablast 5 maintains a neutral support profile suitable for runners with efficient biomechanics. Key measurements include a heel-to-toe drop of approximately 8 mm, with a weight of around 250 g in size 40.5.

The blue and orange color combination provides good visibility in low-light conditions. This model continues the Novablast series' reputation for reliable performance in daily training scenarios, with particular attention to durability in high-wear areas. The shoe accommodates standard running socks and features a spacious toe box for a natural foot position. It is compatible with most running surfaces such as asphalt, concrete, and compact trails.
