June 29, 2023

ASICS Blast Beyond Series shoes combine our advanced, modern technology with more bounce than ever. Learn about the Blast Beyond shoes here.

Our new Blast Beyond Series is here. With newly developed technologies, the Blast Beyond Series shoes have more bounce than ever before so you can get the most out of your runners. With options available regardless of your training and movement needs, let’s take a deeper look into our Blast Beyond Series to find the ideal model for you.

NOVABLAST®

Upgraded from FF BLAST™ to our new FF BLAST™ PLUS midsole cushioning, the latest NOVABLAST® shoes are our lightest to date. The trampoline pod outsole and additional foam in the forefront and heel add more energy to each stride, making for an efficient transfer of energy from the ground up, helping you run further, faster. NOVABLAST® shoes are beneficial for the environment and you with more than 50% of the polyester used in the shoe coming from recycled sources while being approximately 30g lighter than our previous model. The recycled mesh upper features an updated tongue design and better breathability to create an especially comfortable experience. Built to withstand road running conditions, these shoes are also equipped with reflective details to improve visibility in low-light conditions. Designed for runners with neutral pronation tendencies, those with normal arches are the best match for NOVABLAST® shoes. The durable AHAR® outsole and overall responsiveness of NOVABLAST® shoes make them an ideal match for runners looking to get significant distance out of their shoes.

DYNABLAST™

For those looking to get a variety of use out of their runners, DYNABLAST™ shoes come with a slightly lower stack height when compared to our NOVABLAST® shoes making them a good option for both running and training purposes. With a responsive underfoot and outsole inspired by trampolines, you can expect to generate softer landings followed by an energy efficient rebound. In order to ensure optimal stability, we have designed a soft knit upper material with reinforcements in key areas so you can feel confident in your footing during athletic movements while keeping your feet cool. DYNABLAST™ shoes are compatible with both neutral and under pronation gait types. If your training routine consists primarily of running and you want a shoe that can also handle jumping, quick change of directions and other athletic movements, consider a pair of DYNABLAST™ shoes. These shoes will not only provide performance benefits from their FF BLAST™ cushioning but also give you the stability and comfort needed to train at high speeds.

VERSABLAST™

The most versatile shoe in our Blast Beyond Series, VERSABLAST™ shoes are designed for various running and workout routines. Inspired by the NOVABLAST® series, we set out to make a shoe softer and lighter that has the necessary stability to still be reactive during a wide range of activities. VERSABLAST™ shoes have a half-bootie heel collar design to keep your feet secure and a breathable mesh upper to keep your feet cool. With the engineering of VERSABLAST™ shoes being centered around maximal energy return, this model has a fast feel underfoot and a responsive rebound. For an ideal fit, this model is recommended for those with a neutral gait type. Whether you’re wearing them for a run or at the gym, you can rely on VERSABLAST™ shoes to perform how you need them to, with comfort, stability and responsiveness.

GEL-KINSEI BLAST®

GEL-KINSEI BLAST® shoes are designed for distance runners. With our arrangement of GEL® technology and FF BLAST™ cushioning each step is soft yet responsive allowing for a smooth transition that propels you forward. Contributing to a faster feel and better direction of energy is the Pebax propulsion plate strategically placed in the center of GEL-KINSEI BLAST® shoes, also helping to redirect your movement forward. This technology makes GEL-KINSEI BLAST® shoes advantageous over long distances. With significant demands placed on GEL-KINSEI BLAST® shoes, grip and durability becomes increasingly important. This is why the outsole is specifically engineered to withstand wear and continue to perform exceptionally over time. Also contributing to the longevity of these shoes is FLYTEFOAM® technology. The cushioning is lightweight without sacrificing strength as FLYTEFOAM® technology has superb durability. With the upper shoe built using Nexkin mesh material, ventilation is improved to ensure your feet can stay cool regardless of the distances they’re faced with. Runners with neutral to under pronation gait types are ideal fits for GEL-KINSEI BLAST® shoes. Always be sure to reach out to your healthcare provider before making workout changes.
