Foam Technology

  • FF TURBO PLUS Top Layer - A PEBA-based superfoam positioned at the top of the ASICS performance foam hierarchy, designed to maximize energy return and lightweight cushioning. Underfoot, it delivers a lively, highly responsive feel that supports faster paces and efficient turnover.
  • FF BLAST PLUS ECO Base Layer - A lightweight EVA-based cushioning layer positioned beneath the top foam to add structure, durability, and long-run stability. This layer balances the softness of the superfoam with a more controlled landing platform for everyday training.


Comfort & Fit Notes

  • True-to-size performance fit with moderate forefoot volume
  • Lightweight engineered mesh upper prioritizes breathability and reduced weight
  • Step-in feel is highly cushioned yet responsive rather than soft and sink-in
  • Wide platform geometry provides inherent stability without added posting

How This Shoe Compares

Compared to Compared to HOKA Mach 7

The SUPERBLAST 3 offers significantly more cushioning and rebound than the Mach 7, with a higher stack and more energetic ride suited for longer runs. Mach 7 feels lower to the ground and lighter for shorter uptempo sessions, while the SUPERBLAST 3 provides more protection and versatility for higher mileage training.

Compared to Compared to New Balance Rebel

The Rebel feels softer and more flexible with a lower stack designed for speed-focused training, while the SUPERBLAST 3 delivers greater cushioning depth and long-run comfort. Runners wanting a lightweight daily trainer that can handle both long miles and faster efforts may find the SUPERBLAST 3 more versatile.
