Reviews

I've gone on 2 hour

"I've gone on 2 hour long runs in them, I've been having issues with a sore hip running in endorphin speed 4's and got these on a recommendation, glad i did, no hip issues and looking forward to a 90 minute run on the weekend."

ASICS Superblast 2 - My First Pair of ASICS

"These are my first ASICS and I’m seriously impressed. Using them for marathon training and they’ve been unreal so far. Super comfortable straight out of the box, no break in needed, and they feel smooth and stable on both easy runs and longer efforts. Plenty of cushioning without feeling heavy, and they really help keep the legs feeling fresh. Fit is true to size with a nice secure feel around the midfoot and heel. If you’re looking for a reliable, versatile trainer for high mileage and marathon prep, these are hard to beat. Love them."

"still the goat long run shoe imo. love the cushioned yet snappy response - doesn't feel like u sink into the shoe which i enjoy towards the end of a longy. with so much cushion the weight isn't noticeable and can easily get rolling in them and whilst its not my first pick for threshold it can handle that as well. enough grip on the outsole that lasted over 700k and could go more if needed. runs true to size and no issues with width even as someone with a slightly broader foot than average."

Bouncy, fun and protective - great for long runs

"I found them to be stable, protective and versatile (I did a few tempo runs in them). They made ticking the legs over on a long run easy"

— Guy W. (5/5)

5th pair so far!

"Super last is the best long run shoe, help me log the miles and stay uninjured! Definitely must try!"

— Danette S. (5/5)

Simply the best

"4th pair of superblasts. An absolute beast of a shoe. So much cushioning for long runs buts still light enough for it to be comfortable for long distances."

— Fadi N. (5/5)

"Been over 6 month as daily trainer and still going strong. Upgrading to SB3 now so have a slight rotation"

— Yan (5/5)

Superblast 2, all round monster

"I’ve put 60k into this shoe since I got it and am loving its versatility. It’s worked for easy miles, threshold and tempo, and loves going long (I’ve run it up to 17km so far and no worries). It’s slightly firm which helps to give it some lovely thrust, and it feels best sitting on that half marathon to marathon pace for me, which is about 4:20 - 4:50 pace. While it can do nearly everything, you will still want something soft and slow for a recovery run if you have a rotation."

— Andrew B. (5/5)

Superior cussion

"I finally got to find out the reason why they are almost sold out all the time. It really is great shoe."

— Raman S. (5/5)

So far, so good!
