A flared heel, a trampoline-style midsole and AHAR LO under the outsole carry the ride from easy miles into tempo pick-ups. The everyday bouncy shoe across the Asics neutral line. Ekiden colourway, a tribute to Japan's relay-marathon tradition (the Hakone Ekiden calendar, Jan 2-3, running every year since 1920).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBest for:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEasy miles and Zone 2 volume\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLong runs with occasional pick-ups\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTempo pick-ups and moderate-pace workouts\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDaily-trainer rotation for neutral runners\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst-time runners stepping up from a low-stack trainer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e8 mm drop, 41.5 \/ 33.5 mm stack; ~255 g (US 9)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFF Blast MAX full-length midsole, lower-density, more open-cell\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e~8.5% more bounce than the Novablast 4 (per Asics)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlared heel and trampoline-style midsole geometry\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAHAR LO outsole rubber\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlateless daily trainer, easy-to-tempo versatility in the neutral line\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColourway: Vital Green\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizing: 7 \/ 7.5 \/ 8 \/ 8.5 \/ 9 \/ 9.5 \/ 10 \/ 10.5 \/ 11 \/ 11.5 \/ 12\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRemove insoles and loosen laces after wet or muddy sessions and air-dry away from direct heat (no radiators, no dryers). Hand-clean uppers with cold water and a soft brush; use a mild detergent only if needed. Do not machine-wash, it degrades adhesives, compresses the midsole foam, and shortens the life of FF Turbo+, FF Turbo² and FF Leap super foams. Do not tumble dry, bleach or dry clean. Rotate between two pairs where possible, PEBA \/ A-TPU super foams rebound better when given 24 hours to recover between runs. Store at room temperature out of direct sun; heat and UV accelerate foam breakdown. Keep Gore-Tex models clean on the upper to maintain breathability; reproof the face fabric with a water-based DWR when water stops beading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBundle \u0026amp; Save\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuild a bundle and save up to 10% off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/enroute.run\/collections\/bundles\"\u003eShop Bundle Builder\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Asics","offers":[{"title":"Vital Green \/ 7","offer_id":53005916701038,"sku":"1011C224-300-7","price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Vital Green \/ 7.5","offer_id":53005920764270,"sku":"1011C224-300-7.5","price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Vital Green \/ 8","offer_id":53005920797038,"sku":"1011C224-300-08","price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Vital Green \/ 8.5","offer_id":53005920829806,"sku":"1011C224-300-08.5","price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Vital Green \/ 9","offer_id":53005920862574,"sku":"1011C224-300-09","price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Vital Green \/ 9.5","offer_id":53005920895342,"sku":"1011C224-300-09.5","price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Vital Green \/ 10","offer_id":53005920928110,"sku":"1011C224-300-10","price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Vital Green \/ 10.5","offer_id":53005920960878,"sku":"1011C224-300-10.5","price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Vital Green \/ 11","offer_id":53005920993646,"sku":"1011C224-300-11","price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Vital Green \/ 11.5","offer_id":53005921026414,"sku":"1011C224-300-11.5","price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Vital Green \/ 12","offer_id":53005921059182,"sku":"1011C224-300-12","price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0633\/1649\/2459\/files\/Novablast-5-Ekiden.png?v=1772827334","url":"https:\/\/checkout.enroute.run\/products\/novablast-5-ekiden","provider":"enroute.run","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
