Primeros 23k, Excelentes, pero...
Luego de pasar de unos Nimbus 25 con más de 1000km el cambio a los Novablast 4 ha sido brutal!, Conservando la misma comodidad de los Nimbus, la reactividad de los Novablast es un salto absoluto, tanto así que en fondos de zona 3 bajo el mismo esfuerzo la velocidad mejoró en 20s / km a la misma HR o incluso menor.Son un poco ruidosos pero no es algo que en realidad sea un problema.Están enfocados principalmente a quienes corren con pisada de medio pie y ante pie, si bien puedes entrar de talón ppr su excelente amortiguación, no son tan estables como los nimbus, dado que el talón es más estrecho.La transición de la pisada es bastante fluida y propuesta e invitan a avanzar más rápido sin tanto esfuerzo.Tienen un único defecto que puede ser complejo en algunos casos dado que causa incomodidad y es debido a que su lengüeta es MUY CORTA, sí MUY CORTA! y además de esto NO tiene pasador para los cordones lo que hace que se vaya hacia adelante dejando sin protección la zona superior del empeine luego de pocos kilómetros, esto se agrava debido a que además su fijación lateral al zapato es muy delantera y favorece que se desplace hacia el interior.Probablemente personas con pies más gordos o empeine elevados no sufran por esto, pero esto es una falla de diseño inconcebible para una zapato premium como el Novablast 4, más teniendo en cuenta ejemplos fabulosos de lengüeta como las de la Nimbus, con excelente elasticidad, rango de protección y fijación.Por esta razón no le otorgó 5 estrellas.Soy un corredor recreativo, de 82kg con ritmos medios de 5:30 / km.

    I’m an amateur runner, log between 20-40 miles/week. This is my second pair of Novablast and they feel like rocket boosters attached to your feet. Incredibly light weight and very comfortable. For reference - I typically shave 15-30 seconds/mile off my time with the same amount of effort when I run compared to my other more basic running shoes.

    The one negative I’ve found is that they have very little traction in wet conditions - so just be aware on rainy days.

    Overall I couldn’t recommend these shoes enough. Premium performance for mid-tier price.

    The color was a big deal for me, I wanted a good pink. That's exactly what these are the color does not disappoint. They fit really well, a little on the tighter side ,if that bothers you or you normally need a wide shoe, these may not be for you. Feel great to walk in, and they aren't heavy on the feet at all. They seem to be made out of really quality material that support my feet really well.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Ultimate Comfort: Best Running Sneakers Yet...
    Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2024
    Size: 10Color: Black/Blue ExpanseVerified Purchase
    I was a bit skeptical at first – on my first run, the sneakers felt a little off, and my feet would go numb, which had me worried. But I stuck with them, and after around 10 miles of breaking them in, they became the best running sneakers I've ever owned! They’re super lightweight and incredibly comfortable. I just did a 10-mile run at a 12-minute pace, and my feet felt fantastic the whole way – no blisters, no discomfort. I’m considering the Supershow as my next pair, but I’m definitely going to enjoy these for a few more months before treating myself again. Highly recommend giving them a few miles to break in – you won’t regret it!

    Los compré para un viaje a Disney, sabía que caminaría muchos kilometros y con el calor del verano en Orlando no quería fatiga en los pies como en ocasiones anteriores, investigué las recomendaciones de un buen calzado y estos resultaron fantasicos, comodos, resistentes y aunque no pensé decirlo, se ven muy bien! No son baratos pero la calidad y descanso de tus pies lo vale, aunque si los encuentras en oferta pues aun mejor, compralos!
