Who are the SONICBLAST™ shoes designed for?

The ASICS SONICBLAST™ is designed for daily tempo runners training at a fast pace over medium to long distances, as well as competitive runners looking for an efficient, bouncy shoe on race day. If you prioritise speed and a responsive feel underfoot, the SONICBLAST™ is an ideal choice.

What makes the SONICBLAST™ great for speed and interval training?

The SONICBLAST™ combines energetic midsole cushioning with an internal propulsion plate to deliver a light, springy feel that makes it easier to run faster. The flexible plate flexes upon impact to store kinetic energy, then snaps back as you step forward. This boosts forward movement, creates a smooth roll-through, and provides an explosive rebound with every stride so you can accelerate efficiently without wasting energy.
