Product Information

Full details

The ASICS Sonicblast 2 is a high-performance neutral trainer engineered for male runners who require a blend of speed and comfort for both daily training and tempo workouts. Utilizing advanced dual-foam midsole technology and a responsive plate system, these shoes provide a lightweight, propulsive feel on asphalt; however, their specialized construction is optimized for neutral gaits and may not suit those needing significant stability support.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathons?

Yes, the high-stack height and responsive foam make them well-suited for long-distance road running.

Is this a stability shoe?

No, the Sonicblast 2 is designed as a neutral trainer.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The shoe weighs approximately 242g.

Can I use these on gravel paths?

While they perform best on asphalt, they can handle light, hard-packed gravel paths, though excessive trail use may cause premature outsole wear.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The shoe features an 8mm drop.

Troubleshooting

Feeling instability during cornering

Due to the high-stack height, ensure your laces are tightened securely to keep the foot centered on the footbed.

Foam feels firmer than expected

The FF Turbo foam often requires a short 'warm-up' period in cooler temperatures to reach optimal flexibility.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally lightweight for a high-stack trainer
  • Highly responsive foam combination for tempo work
  • Excellent impact absorption on asphalt surfaces
  • Sleek aesthetic with multiple colour options

Cons

  • Neutral platform may lack support for overpronators
  • High stack height requires adjustment for runners used to minimal shoes
  • Primarily designed for road use and may lack traction on loose trails

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Sonicblast 2 trainers, avoid using them on rugged or uneven terrain, as the outsole is specifically optimized for asphalt and flat surfaces.

  1. Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for shorter walks before committing to long runs to allow the midsole foams to adapt to your foot.
  2. Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush after runs. If they get muddy, wipe them with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid soaking the shoes or using a washing machine, as high heat and heavy agitation can degrade the foam.
  3. Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight, which can cause the upper materials and foam to stiffen or fade over time.
