La chaussure rapide et polyvalente de la gamme Blast
The Asics Sonicblast is the new reference in the
Blast range
range, designed for runners who want to combine performance and adaptability. Its design favors a responsive, fluid stride, capable of supporting both fast training sessions and daily outings. Between the
Novablast
and Megablast, it strikes the right balance between propulsion and comfort, offering a dynamic running experience without compromising stability.
In the
Blast range
range, the Sonicblast is positioned as a versatile alternative to existing models. It complements the
Novablast
providing greater dynamism and responsiveness for fast sessions, while retaining the comfort needed for daily outings. Compared with the more radical, maximum-performance-oriented Megablast, the Sonicblast strikes a balance between lightness, propulsion and stability, making it a shoe perfectly suited to varied daily use, capable of keeping pace with runners on splits, tempo runs and regular outings. This shoe is therefore at the heart of the range, between versatility and targeted performance, and is aimed at runners who want a single pair for all situations.
The ASICS SonicBlast accompanies regular runners who want to combine speed, responsiveness and training comfort. Its balanced behavior makes it equally at home on dynamic sessions and long outings, without ever giving the sensation of overdoing it. It is positioned as a true fast-training shoe rather than a pure competition model.
Visit SonicBlast caters to several profiles, depending on the intended use:
Active runners: those who regularly incorporate rhythm, tempo or split sessions into their training. SonicBlast stands out for its ability to follow intensity without loss of comfort.
Specialists in 5 km to half-marathons: ideal for intermediate distances where stability and recovery are essential. Depending on the runner and his stride, it can go the distance up to a half-marathon.
Rotating runners: perfect as a second pair dedicated to speed and cadence work, complementing a more cushioned model for leisurely jogging.
Neutral or slightly pronated stride: SonicBlast offers a stable, balanced platform with no pronounced correction, suitable for most technical profiles.
A pertinent choice for runners looking to gain in dynamism while maintaining a high level of comfort on their daily workouts.
The Sonicblast combines several ASICS innovations to optimize stride, support and propulsion:
Engineered Mesh: Multi-directional mesh supports the foot in key areas while reducing the weight of the upper and improving breathability, guaranteeing lasting comfort over all distances.
FlyteFoam Blast Max: This advanced foam provides highly responsive cushioning and releases energy at every impact, making the shoe particularly suitable for acceleration and fast outings.
FlyteFoam Turbo 2: Ultralight, this foam provides impressive rebound and unique sensations, enhancing responsiveness and dynamism with every stride.
Astroplate: The ASTROPLATE™ plate promotes fluid forward propulsion without excessive rigidity, and contributes to a natural stride transition.
AsicsGrip: The AsicsGrip outsole guarantees optimum grip on different types of terrain, ensuring secure support even during acceleration or tight turns.
To choose between the Sonicblast and the Megablast, it’s important to compare their strengths according to your profile and training goals.
