What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"This shoe makes every run feel more fun. It's incredibly light, super bouncy, and the cushioning feels great on long days. The trail outsole grips confidently on dirt paths and gravel without feeling clunky on the road."When our routes shift from pavement to park paths and gravel trails, the Novablast 5 TR keeps our stride smooth and lively. Its FF BLAST MAX midsole delivers cloud-like softness with a quick, springy rebound, while the trampoline-inspired outsole geometry amplifies energy return with each toe-off. At just 240 grams, it feels light and nimble, yet still provides the support and cushioning needed for long-distance comfort. The engineered mesh upper moves with the foot and breathes easily, while tongue wing construction locks in the fit and minimizes movement over varied terrain. A trail-specific outsole design adds grip and durability for mixed surfaces, making it as capable on dirt as it is on the road. With over 75% recycled content in the upper and a low-impact dyeing process, it's a performance trainer that's easier on the planet too.
