Some people (me) do like the wild colours and don't like it as overly soft as the Novablast. I loved the Noosa 14 - put over 1000km in them.

@i.p2088 25 дней назад

Love the Noosa 15 for recovery runs and easy run. Novablast 4 clunky..

@jeffe.3453 25 дней назад

Agreed, high max cushioned shoes almost feels like running on sand to me depending on the type of foam. The landing is nice and soft but you sink in too much that you actually feel like you have to work harder pushing off.

@femaciel 25 дней назад

Cousin of.. Novablast 3 (didn't like it), way lighter (215g), cheaper, less coushioned/padded, nimble, nice rocker and FF Blast+.. seems like a pretty good lightweight daily trainer for 2024

@brunocassettari 25 дней назад

Oh that rocker!!!🚀

@femaciel 25 дней назад

But I just wished a Glideride 4..

@thedccrew8926 25 дней назад

Agreed. One of my favourite daily trainers. It works for me as does the Evoride Speed 2. I think both shoes are underrated but represent good value for money because they come on sale due to them being unloved by the masses.

@kuriosites 25 дней назад

I have v14 and the geometry is really smooth. FF Blast+ should make it even better. Novablast has a more disconnected heel and forefoot.

@i.p2088 25 дней назад

Exactly 👍🏻

@jeffe.3453 25 дней назад

Not everyone is into high stack max cushioned shoes MEG!!! Including this guy, prefer mid to low stack shoes and I don't always want to run on pillows. I've been running on the Noosa 14's and I love the Flyte Foam on those. Felt like an even balance of responsiveness and cushioning. How does regular Flyte Foam compare to the Blast + version? I do agree the colors are always funky and an acquired taste, but so are us triathletes 😊

@tagruns9072 6 дней назад

The two of you are wonderful together. Thank you for the wonderful content.

@TheBsheep 24 дня назад

I always admired the Noosa line for the exotic, fun colors!

@thedccrew8926 25 дней назад

I like the Novablast line but the Noosa Tri, Evoride Speed and Glideride line have a lot to offer. They utilise a great rocker and have more than enough stack to work as a proficient daily trainer. And the beauty is you can usually pick them up at heavily discounted prices because they aren't as loved as the promoted Superblast and Novablast lines.

@robsnow2099 16 дней назад

And they are soooo lightweight, it’s awesome. Actually this post was better than this whole clunky video.

@Dasani31 День назад

Glide ride no more haha. Last was GR3

@RobertHarridge 25 дней назад

Asics EvoRide Speed is where it’s at. It’s got good old FFBlast used in the NB1 and NB2, but feels more like the same formulation in the NB1. It’s got the rocker. AHAR outsole. The upper is breathable and light. Doesn’t look crazy. Locks down really well, and you can pick the first version, which is better than the second IMO, for about $80 or less.

@aidanhanley4412 25 дней назад

Good to hear, I keep seeing the shoe but haven’t heard anything about them

@femaciel 25 дней назад

Just great!

@laurenelle3 25 дней назад

I am enjoying the first version! What makes the Evoride Speed 2 worse?

@SprintTri57 10 дней назад

I wear these for sprint triathlons because you can go sockless. They are great for tempo runs too. I really like the wild looks of the Noosa series

@brandonfaus2380 25 дней назад

Versions 13 (5:50 mile PR) and 14 (1:36 half PR) were great. 15 not so much. 16 feels like a return to what I liked about 13 and 14. Lightweight, durable foam, can cover a variety of paces without forcing you to do something you don’t want to do.

@jimoconnor8597 25 дней назад

This shoe now replaces the Magic Speed, so fast, tempo days. MS 4 is a max stack, carbon-plated super trainer to rival Skyward X, Neo Vista, etc.

@pbnotj1 25 дней назад

I really like novablast 4 , trail version I have is really nice for training runs on gravel road style trails where I live. Seems a bit chunky at first but lighter and smoother and just right cushion the longer I run … definitely glad I got it.

@user-sx8rv5pz7u 25 дней назад

The trail version is really amazing ❤

@cicckany8540 23 дня назад

I have the 14 and the Novablast 3. I like the Noosa much more than the Novablast. It's more comfortable for me, feels faster, more breathable, lighter, I like the rocker, and from the color point of view, I'm in the live camp.

@RAA-uw7kh 25 дней назад

Never liked nova blast. Had two pairs of Noosa, nearly 300 miles on them each. Great daily trainer

@tracyhatfield7342 25 дней назад

I walk and use machines now because of injuries (joint replacement and stress fractures) and like the 14s because the soul doesn't flex and they feel good on days when I want some stability in the sole with not a lot of weight or drop. I enjoy your reviews.

@bpg201 25 дней назад

I did the Reston Sprint Tri yesterday.....I feel like I did see at least one pair of these....a previous model I guess.

@hawaiifranke7637 25 дней назад

Up until version 14 they came with an extra pair of speed laces for faster transitions from bike to run but now Asics doesn't include them anymore.

@Andy.Dr.Walton 24 дня назад

As a triathlete the Noosa tri has always been a daily trainer. The only races i used it for were aquathlons where the upper is perfect to prevent rubbing when youve still got wet feet.

@mikemurphy9269 21 день назад

I love the Noosa Tri 15. I hate the lack of volume for my instep in most shoes. I ran a half marathon in them. The plusses are it has great underfoot feel for a daily trainer. Much better than Hokas which have almost no volume. It just turns over so well. Further, it is so durable. 500 miles no problem in these. I love the colorways in these. Not for everyone but for me I like shoes that start a conversation. Lastly, they are really inexpensive compared to most other shoes these days. I can afford any shoe I want but I like everything including the value about this shoe. The 15s just went on sale at Road Runner and Asics websites for $89-99 USD. I bought two more pairs and I hope the new version is as great. Lastly, although I appreciate their opinion, not every shoe is for these two. Maybe they're for the 40 something who runs a half marathon per year and runs to feel good.

@thedude9082 25 дней назад

See comparison to Mach 6.

@colinmclellan4683 25 дней назад

Unless they changed the noosa missing that there is a liner for running sockless is a big omission. I love my 14s with the speed laces, slip on and off is massively convenient. I use as lifestyle shoes but am happy to run in them.

@ramore1000 24 дня назад

Some people do not want max cushion shoes for easy runs especially on mixed terrain. The previous versions were light and had a nice heel entry which helped for an Achilles tendon injury, not sure if these have changed that design?

@alessandrorossi3268 25 дней назад

v13 was the best looking shoe, what are you doing Asics?

@Tony2Shooz 22 дня назад

If it’s similar to the Noosa 15, you’re getting a different ride & more pronounced heel lock vs the Novablast 4. Also I think that hole in the tongue (HA!) is for the bungle lace to help keep it out of the way? 🤷🏻‍♂️

@user-sx8rv5pz7u 25 дней назад

FFBLAST + 🔥

@michaelcaricoo 25 дней назад

Me and my homies that don't like the Novablast 4 can appreciate the Noosa. Idk what it is, I've run in all 4 Novas now but the 4 does not do it for me

@jimoconnor8597 25 дней назад

Amen!!!!!!!

@mikeduron30 8 дней назад

All I wanna know is where did you get that 96 Atlanta Olympic shirt at??

@Believeintherun 7 дней назад

Abercrombie

@shanedorrian8192 25 дней назад

The 14’s were just the best, got the black and white zebra version #Ace

@mikeylikey2306 25 дней назад

The holes are so they’re easier to put on after swimming in a race

@baloyli 25 дней назад

love the review but i still don't get the walking part tho

@salmoayed 25 дней назад

Wait no that's one of my favorite parts! It makes it more casual (as it should be since it's just first thoughts so it gives it contrast over a full review), it's more personal cause you get a feel for where they live and just generally of Baltimore (aka greatest city in America :)), I guess they'll never be able to please everyone but I really hope they never stop making these videos cause they're my favorite by far. Great review and great catch at the end!

@Manuel-901 25 дней назад

First Like from 🇪🇸 Spain. Thanks Meaghan and Thomas. Have a great day.

@sharkymoon422 21 день назад

All depends on what Trainer u used the day before , or the current rotation when reviewing trainers.. Maybe u don’t like the heavier Nova or enjoy not wearing socks!

@marcoc2706 23 дня назад

30mm in the forefoot sounds great!

@mattsippel4950 25 дней назад

If you’ve ever done the Noosa triathlon you’ll see they fit in perfectly there.

@93siguy 25 дней назад

doesnt seem like they like it lol

@rummie2693 25 дней назад

Why even have Meg review these shoes? You guys realize she only likes max stack shoes?

@dimka11ggg 24 дня назад

Too expensive for non plated shoes. For daily trainer I prefer some cheaper alternatives.

@Weebei 22 дня назад

Why make a video at all?

@pete801 22 дня назад

Love noosa tri and a low stack novablast 3 sounds epic to me. Novablast is too clunky. This chick is far too neagtive

@TheValonquar 25 дней назад

I tried to resist cringing but I failed.

@wildforthecats661 23 дня назад

Haha, I will pass on this one. They both talk about the shoe like they just took a doze of bad tasting cough medicine. 😎

@user-pm1mm6xr7g 25 дней назад

Skip...

@Pearlandtriathlete 25 дней назад

I think ASICS current designers just don’t like this shoe and are trying to tank it lol. 13 was awesome last few versions sucked.

@davidernst5708 25 дней назад

Since it’s in your name, I’ll ask you. What are the characteristics of a “Tri” shoe? I have the 14. Seems fine as a shorter distance shoe that turns over quickly. Beyond that, I don’t really get it. I would think triathletes would want more cushion since they’re running after getting off the bike.

@Pearlandtriathlete 25 дней назад

@@davidernst5708 the reason it’s considered a triathlon shoe is because it can be worn comfortably without socks and comes with bungee shoe laces(faster to put on). However Most people nowadays use plated shoes for triathlons including me.

@WildDoggos 8 дней назад

dead shoe, Noosa is supposed to be low to the ground but now it has 35mm heel stack?? gtfo

@Notthatramsey 25 дней назад

Let me preface by saying I love the stuff y’all do…. But do you realize how gross it is that you just keep touching the used sole of the shoes in these videos? Like is there a way to get an unworn shoe or something. No idea but it feels so weird.
