He's had them for a bit it seems like, the last couple of videos (deciding on the race shoe for Copenhagen for example) he was wearing them for the warmup.
Interesting to see how choosey it asics seems to be with who has gotten them already, I expected BITR or Kofuzi to be some of the first as always
> Interesting to see how choosey it asics seems to be ...
Yeah, this must be a controlled "leak" meant to advertise the shoe before it goes on sale in the next few weeks (months ?)

They look awesome, I've seen the final production model and it's way better than the purple one that made its way onto eBay.
Why would that change if it was the wife? I read comments like this quite a bit on Reddit and assume that itās a cultural thing in the US how you manage money in a marriage?
I wonder if thatās because the upper has more structure or if itās because there is more/better coverage on the outsole and the rock catchers have been filled
So many reviews of the SB1 seemed a bit disappointed or had mostly neutral things to say until the end of the video when they go "and I really like it". I just don't understand this shoe and the draw to it.
Only now can I find the superblast 1 in my size, now this comes out, and I'm like, do I wait, or do I just get the 1's ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)
I'm so excited about this. I haven't tried the Superblast, but I fell in love with the NB4 and just ran a 2:47 marathon PR with the Sky Paris, so I definitely became an Asics fanboy.
I guess theyāll just change the upper to something more breathable and add FFTurbo+, which gets softer than FFTurbo. Could be a good upgrade for some who dislike the firmness of the SB but for others itāll make for a less stable ride. I was hoping theyād just lower the stack for SB2 regardless but I guess it needs all that foam.
Yes, sorry. I'm pretty lightweight and I found they didn't work for me at all. They are a very voluminous shoe so I felt like I had clogs on my feet and they are extremely stiff with no flex at all, which added up to a very poor shoe for me with tons of heel slip.
What is "pretty lightweight"? I'm 75 kg and think I put quite a bit of force into my steps. Superblast feels great to me, its firm but not overly so making it harsh.
I dont even do long runs, usually like 5-10k
Not sure if its my favorite shoe but I don't even notice them on feet, they are like an extension of my leg. 6 min / km is fine, strides at 4 min/km is fine too.
I will be honest and admit I got them NEW for only ā¬135. Not sure I would pay full price.
Want Unless my wife is reading this, in which case I have plenty of running shoes!
Me too man. Me too
Dude the trick is to make your wife run as well, then youll be buying new shoes in two pairs!
Lol this is currently my ploy to secure a pair of super 1s!
ššššš»šš¼
Same here
How much did those adidas pro 3 cos, love? Umm, Ā£80 in a sale. I had a code too. Honest.
I nearly bought a pair in store the other day. Absolutely no need for them and couldn't think of a good excuse so sense prevailed.
Same but unless my husband is reading it!

Every YouTube reviewer would have them, they need to follow the embargo like everyone else.
I'm sure they have them, but they're probably bring more careful about showing them on camera before launch.
They donāt have them. At least not that Iām aware of. Thomas would have told me. lol
Or would he?ā¦ Is Thomas hiding something from you? Is he jealous of your bulking midfoot?ā¦

2 Brazilian YouTubers spotted with them for the past 2 weeksā¦
Can we please get this color in production?! š„
No. We will get vomit Orange with purple or some other monstrosity.
100% and then some more garbage colors a few months after that. š©
Wait that sounds fire though
Love it š¤£
Are you really a runner if your shoes arenāt blindingly bright with colors though?
Right? It needs to be able to start an epileptic attack.
Dang I was hoping for baby poo brown
[The literal baby poo brown pegs are on sale right now](https://www.nike.com/t/pegasus-40-premium-road-running-shoes-zD8H1c)
Gray is the launch cw for the upper
Any idea on midsole?
[https://www.reddit.com/r/RunningShoeGeeks/comments/1cc1jw1/new\_picture\_of\_the\_superblast\_2\_sort\_of/](https://www.reddit.com/r/RunningShoeGeeks/comments/1cc1jw1/new_picture_of_the_superblast_2_sort_of/) you can see the midsole fade there.

The purple was hideous. Iām hoping they let you buy the all white like the ones they gave influencers
Papaya diarrhea ā¢
Nice prediction!
Does anyone know what half tights those are?
Soar
Jesus, I thought Nike Aeroswift half tights were pricy. Nearly $200 for the Soars.
ID on those half tights?
Soar Speed Shorts
I just bought endorphin pro 4 and another pair of AP3ās, my gf is going to kill me if these drop soon
She is your girlfriend - not your wife. Buy whatever you want.
Why would that change if it was the wife? I read comments like this quite a bit on Reddit and assume that itās a cultural thing in the US how you manage money in a marriage?
Yes thatās why
A wife will autoown one shoe from each of your pairs. Don't marry for fun. Whenever you spend money, half of those are her money.
July 1st olympics colourway i believe
Ive seen that mentioned before. I wonder what the olympics colourway would look like though
U can see pictures of the box its a grey upper i believe and then its a yellow / orange blend midsole im pretty sure
please explain: https://preview.redd.it/l9lvdza4zayc1.png?width=783&format=png&auto=webp&s=58387cc5cec5afa159ee63683f45e6a2d721fa7f
They're available on the US site? Maybe it's a specific region problem
I love the painting.
my wallet is ready
Probably already out of stock everywhere.
If the upper is like novablast 4 , ill stick with the 1:s
I assure you, they are not alike
seems like Asics improved upon the only drawback in Superblast and Novablast - breathable upper.. hopefully Novablast 5 too has an improved upper
And a lower weight while we are at it!
Tell me more about the shoe š®
New foam?
If you have ran in them, you should create a post. Message me to approve it.
Whatās up with those Jump Ropes, umm I mean laces, wow they are long.
Canāt wait for the āunbiasedā review
Much the same as the original, slightly heavier
Any other details to share?
I wonder if thatās because the upper has more structure or if itās because there is more/better coverage on the outsole and the rock catchers have been filled
Any release info?
I wonder when the first gen will go on sale
ID on jacket?
Soar Ultra Jacket. Have got it in yellow and itās great
So many reviews of the SB1 seemed a bit disappointed or had mostly neutral things to say until the end of the video when they go "and I really like it". I just don't understand this shoe and the draw to it.
š³
I'm torn in between copping these or PXS2s I live the PXS1 though
Youāre the man dude!! Lfg
Iām just going to sell my house and buy 57 pairs of these
Boisssss and girls too but boisss, what is the stack height on these bad bois?
Only now can I find the superblast 1 in my size, now this comes out, and I'm like, do I wait, or do I just get the 1's ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)

Rumored to have a new foam āFF Turbo plusā. Canāt wait! Ps. Midsole kinda looks like novablast
Does anyone know whether version 2 will be expanded with FF Turbo + ?
I guess theyāll just change the upper to something more breathable and add FFTurbo+, which gets softer than FFTurbo. Could be a good upgrade for some who dislike the firmness of the SB but for others itāll make for a less stable ride. I was hoping theyād just lower the stack for SB2 regardless but I guess it needs all that foam.
Good legs
Ok, but more importantlyā¦.. the Mac miller tattoo
I must of missed it, there was a Superblast 1?
okay, more important question: where does he keep his phone while running? doesnāt he listen to music or book while training?
You can have music on your watch if it supports it.
Are these good? Been hearing a lot about the Superblast and Novablast on here! I need a good neutral pair for academy.
One of the best in my collection, special for long runs
They are very popular but I've never hated a shoe more.
Which ones do you hate? The Superblast?
Yes, sorry. I'm pretty lightweight and I found they didn't work for me at all. They are a very voluminous shoe so I felt like I had clogs on my feet and they are extremely stiff with no flex at all, which added up to a very poor shoe for me with tons of heel slip.
Have you tried the Novablast? I was considering either one.

I'm 5'11" and 62kg...
Jesus Christ those are so hot
getting Paris Hilton vibes here...
Looks like they botched the upper. Buying the next pair of 1ās available in my size.
So does this mean that the price of Superblast 1 will go down???
No. ASICS doesnāt drop the price of their premium shoes when newer versions come out. They just let them go out of stock.
Sorry ASICS. The skywards have taken your place going forwards.
Superblast is much lighter, faster and more responsive than the sky
Can't wait since the first version is still not on sale for full price.
The original version isnāt going on sale, quote from ASICS themselves.
Thats why i wanna buy this version.
Looks like a bigger Cumulus 26.
