ASICS Performance Novablast 5 TR

The ASICS Novablast 5 TR is a trail running shoe for male athletes in a black, green, and yellow design, available in size 48. This model continues the Novablast series with improved traction and stability for off-road conditions. The shoe features ASICS FlyteFoam Blast midsole technology, providing responsive cushioning with approximately 30 mm of material height in the heel and 20 mm in the forefoot for a balanced 10 mm drop. The outsole uses ASICSGrip rubber with multidirectional lugs 3-4 mm deep for reliable grip on various surfaces such as dirt, gravel, and light mud. The upper is made of technical mesh for breathability and durability, reinforced with synthetic overlays in strategic areas for midfoot support. An integrated tongue helps prevent dirt from entering, while the heel cap contains internal padding for a secure fit. The shoe weighs about 280 g per shoe in size 42, with the size 48 model being proportionally heavier. The Novablast 5 TR maintains the series' characteristic rocker geometry to promote smooth transitions during the running stride. This model is suitable for runners looking for a versatile trail shoe with cushioning for medium to long distances on non-technical trails. The color combination offers good visibility in outdoor environments. Care instructions recommend cleaning with a damp cloth and air drying away from direct heat sources. This shoe is the successor to the Novablast 4 TR, featuring updates in the outsole profile and upper materials based on athlete feedback.
