Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS Novablast 5, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them for shorter distances first to allow the foam to adapt to your foot strike pattern.
- Compatibility: Best paired with moisture-wicking technical socks to maximize the breathability of the mesh upper.
- Cleaning: Hand wash only using mild soap and cool water. Remove the sockliner to dry separately. Never place them in a washing machine or dryer, as the heat can damage the midsole foam properties and adhesives.
- Rotation: For optimal foam recovery, avoid wearing the same pair two days in a row if you run daily; rotating between pairs allows the cushioning to fully decompress.
