#asics #asicsnovablast3
I have vaporfly next%2, Vomero 16, Hoka bondi 6, bought invincible run 2 and took them back because they were uncomfortable below my ankle, sales rep recommendation, I took these bad boys(acis novablas3) home and WOW! Been a Nike and Hoka user these has been my go to for daily training.
what a wonderful review!! I'm still running with my old pair of novablast 2 and doing great!! , I can’t wait to try the new nova’s3.
great video thanks!!!
About that 8mm drop ... the Novablast 2 already had a lowered drop, it's the original Novablast that had a 10mm drop! 🙂 Not that it matters. Great shoe with overall improvements over the previous versions, except for traction. Watch out when making hard turns on wet or slippery surfaces 😲
I’m waiting for the Novablast 3 TR to be in stock in my size and I will be ordering it, plus the ASICS Cumulus 24 in all-black color. I’m
still in my training phase of logging in a lot of miles to build a foundation of fitness and so I’m mostly worried about comfort and avoiding soreness and injuries. Shoes like the Hoka Bondi and even New Balance More v3 feel too sluggish to me though. On Running Cloud Monster is my main daily trainer now and it’s just about right for what I need.
I totally agree on the pace side. I have recently had the V2 and that did feel littke more springy and responsive especially in the rear /moving through the foot strike. The decoupled groove on the rear of the V3 is perhaps now quite as pronounced as V1 or 2 which might impact. Certainly a more easy going update. V happy so far 👍
Im definitely getting the Nova 3 .Will you guys be reviewing the Magic speed 2?
Yes
Agree 100% one of the most COMFORTABLE shoes for putting up miles.....but NOT for speed...........Can't get them out of 2nd gear
Thanks for mentioning the heel. I was disappointed that they kept the same very hard, unpadded heel cup, with just a bit more padding up at the collar. It made v2 a problem for me. So far v3 is ok, but it's one of the more clear differences to other shoes of similar outsole style. That and, weirdly longer toe part, and some bizarre bump on the tongue that prevents it lying flat. I didn't notice these differences while running, so far, which is what matters. I'm just surprised that most online reviews are missing this, so thanks for yours!
am I the only one thinking that the fit is a bit long on these ? I've just ordered these and there is a lot of room in front... as I have narrow feet I'm hesitatiing in going half size down...
You are not the only one. I've had v1 and v2 and the Tri-Noosa and I've needed to go down 1/2 size with all of them due to length.
v2 was the same for me. But to be honest, on +20 mile long runs, they seem to fill in nicely. As the extra toe room feels nice.
@@kentm7731 Thanks for your feedback. I will try a half size down to be sure, the length is not such an issue but as my feets are narrow i'd prefer to check ;)
Yes. v2 was true to size for me but the v3 is 1/2 too large and esp. long.
No! This is the exact reason I don’t buy any ASICS shoes. Also, I do not like any shoes that have excessive material protruding behind the heel, including and especially these.
How does the posterior heel flair compare to v2? After 300km(in the shoe) and a knee injury, the heel flair in V2 causes discomfort for me
Es la zapatilla que te la pones y no quieres dejar de ponertela por su mediasuela te cuida bastante las articulaciones y te pide ritmos alegres, a la tercera version va la vencida Asics mejora lo anterior !Vamos!
I have slight stability issues since I land on the outside of my foot and my ankle collapses inwards excessively. Right now I’m training in the noosa tri 14 and racing in the adios pro 2 and love them both. I’m looking for a daily/long run shoe and I’m split between the novablast3, cloudmonster, and supercomp trainer. Any advice or recommendations?
How would you compare this to the Endorphin Shift 3, as a daily trainer, long run shoe?
this might be out of place but will this be more beneficial to use for WALKING/STANDING than kanyano 29? or should i stick to my new balance 990 v5?
How would you compare them to Pegasus 39. If you were to pick one, which one would you pick?
Started getting achilles pain with this shoe in my rotation. Took it out, but probably too late.
How does the drop feel to you? Even though v2 is supposed to be 8mm, it feels much steeper like a 12mm......
Hi doctor, really hardly to decide between mach5 or novablast3, to combo with my Hyperion Tempo
Thanks for the review of the NB3’s, how different are they to the NovaBlast 3 TR?
Hey, I've seen a couple of reviews and seems that is a bit heavier and got little lugs for easy trails, a little more grip, but no major differences, and definitely not enough as a trail shoe. The reviews I've seen said that if you like more the colors of the TR version, pick, as no real difference in the ride otherwise.
@@nor3 I thank you for the update. According to their website both shoes are almost identical except for the outsole which would be suitable for the roads here in the Virgin Islands. Thank You again
How would you use this shoe compared to Saucony Endorphin Speed 3? What daily trainers would you recommend for runners over 220 lbs who run slower ( 10:00 to 12:00 min miles easy pace)?
The Novablast is a daily trainer through and through. The Speed 3 is best at workouts and harder efforts. It can do some regular training, but is best for those faster days. The nova could be a good choice if you don’t need a lot of stability. Focusing on comfort and finding something that fits well and feels good eating up miles is a good place to start.

@@AwesomeWrench can you elaborate on what makes it better and what kind of runs you do in both shoes? My current shoe rotation is: Dead legs/recovery = Nike Invincible V1, easy/ long run = New Balance 1080 V12 or Hoka Mach 5, speed work or progressive run = Mach 5 or Saucony Endorphin Speed 3 (I think as I just got these and have done one easy treadmill run with them). I’m thinking of picking up one or more Nova Blast 3, Triumph 20, or Endorphin Shift 3.
If you are going to buy one shoe just buy Speed 3. It is a do-it-all type of shoe.
Is it just me or does it seem as if Matt’s becoming Captain (Chris Evans) America’s doppelgänger 👌
I've seen conflicting information regarding the sizing of these shoes. If I wear a size 12 US in my Saucony Xodus Ultras and Inov-8 Trailfly G300s, do you think these Novablast 3s will be true to size to a 12 US as well? Or...do they run slightly small or big? Thanks!
I just bought a pair and they run a tad long - noticable. Im purchasing a half size down to compare, and return the ones that fit the worst. Also see this at 2:42 - ruclips.net/video/tmzwj4XAdX4/видео.html
This is promising. I developed plantar fasciitis using V2. I'll have to check it out at my local shoe store!
Did you get rid of it? What did you do?
@@roter4baron I had to stop running for about 2 months and worked on stretching and strengthening my lower body. I retired the V2s (probably later than I should have) and got the Hoka Mach 5. Haven't had an issue since and looking to add another shoe to my rotation.
@@chrisdkim8951 stability shoes is the answer for plantar fasciitis
@@louidaiv2387 So far it hasn’t come back so I’m keeping my options open. The slight guardrails on the novablast 3 sounds promising but I have the adrenaline 22 as a back up option is plantar fasciitis rears its ugly head again.
Can an overpronator use this for a Marathon?
Wish they were available in 2e.
The Novablast was originally famous for being extremely bouncy, super fun but not necessary efficient shoe, and I wanna know if v3 keeps that same bouncy-fun ride or if it's a totally different shoe, compared to previous shoes... does it still feel like a "novablast"?
I have v1, v2 and v3. Honestly the most fun ride is v1, the way you get the pace is amazing on that. v2 and v3 are upgrades in terms of fit and stability. About your question, v3 feels like a Novablast with a slight difference that was said in the video...it takes some miles/km to break in. The first couple times you just feel it lighter (it is much lighter), but not so springy. Probably im near 100km on them and as said the foam is breaking for good, and feels much more to v1 and v2. Just v1 and v2 had that from the very first day and these need a little break-in. Definitely worth and contender for shoe of the year. If you liked the previous, I'm almost sure you will like and love this one too.
@@nor3 thank you so much for your time and opinion 🙌🏻
The drop is the same as in version 2
