Daily Trainer2026-07-01 · Global · Release dateChecked 2026-10-25

NOVABLAST 6 is a daily road trainer for new and regular runners. A forefoot FF TURBO SQUARED trampoline pod joins FF BLAST MAX to combine softer landings with a bouncy toe-off. A lightweight woven upper replaces the previous mesh, with tongue wings securing the midfoot. Forefoot ASICSGRIP and AHAR LO rubber add traction and durability for repeated training.
