Introducing the Men's Novablast 5 Ekiden, a special edition to pay tribute to the spirit of Ekiden, symbolising the young runner's journey, a sprout full of potential, ready to grow, evolve, and emerge stronger with every stride.
The Novablast 5 Ekiden is a revolutionary running shoe that blends cutting-edge technology with thoughtful design. Its engineered mesh upper delivers the perfect mix of stretch, breathability, and durability, wrapping your foot in all-day comfort. A padded tongue wing construction locks in the fit and minimises unwanted movement, giving you a secure yet flexible feel with every step.
Underfoot, the HYBRID ASICSGRIP outsole, a fusion of AHAR and ASICSGrip, offers outstanding traction, even on wet or slippery surfaces. The trampoline-inspired sole, made with approximately 20% bio-based materials, adds cloud-like cushioning for a sensation that feels like running on air. At the heart of the shoe is FF BLAST PLUS ECO foam, delivering next-level bounce, lightweight cushioning, and energy return. A reimagined midsole geometry boosts responsiveness, helping you move forward with power and ease.
With its bold design, sustainable materials, and explosive energy, the Novablast 5 Ekiden is made for runners who chase progress and do it in style.
