Overview The Superblast 2 is Asics' plateless super trainer — FF Turbo+ PEBA over FF Blast+ Eco, no plate, 45 mm stack, 250 g. The dual-foam geometry delivers propulsion from stack and rocker alone, which is why the Superblast 2 became the cult long-run and marathon-pace tool for runners chasing super-shoe feel at super-trainer durability. The 45 mm rule-era answer to "what if a super shoe didn't need a plate." Ekiden colourway, a tribute to Japan's relay-marathon tradition (the Hakone Ekiden calendar, Jan 2-3, running every year since 1920). Details Best for: Long runs at aerobic to marathon-pace effort Marathon race day for runners who prefer a plateless ride Half-marathon race day when you want max-stack without a plate Marathon-pace workouts and fast finishes A daily super-trainer slot for runners who log high mileage Specs: 8 mm drop (reviewer-measured ~8.2 mm), 45 / 37 mm stack, ~250 g (men's US 9) FF Turbo+ PEBA top layer over FF Blast+ Eco bottom layer No plate, the propulsion comes from dual-foam geometry Engineered-mesh upper, gusseted tongue AHAR LO outsole with exposed-foam zones Plateless super trainer, long-run and marathon-pace tool Colourway: Vital Green / Black Sizing: M5/W6.5 / M5.5/W7 / M6/W7.5 / M6.5/W8 / M7/W8.5 / M7.5/W9 / M8/W9.5 / M8.5/W10 / M9/W10.5 / M9.5/W11 / M10/W11.5 / M10.5/W12 / M11/W12.5 / M11.5/W13 / M12/W13.5 Materials & Care Remove insoles and loosen laces after wet or muddy sessions and air-dry away from direct heat (no radiators, no dryers). Hand-clean uppers with cold water and a soft brush; use a mild detergent only if needed. Do not machine-wash, it degrades adhesives, compresses the midsole foam, and shortens the life of FF Turbo+, FF Turbo² and FF Leap super foams. Do not tumble dry, bleach or dry clean. Rotate between two pairs where possible, PEBA / A-TPU super foams rebound better when given 24 hours to recover between runs. Store at room temperature out of direct sun; heat and UV accelerate foam breakdown. Keep Gore-Tex models clean on the upper to maintain breathability; reproof the face fabric with a water-based DWR when water stops beading. Bundle & Save Build a bundle and save up to 10% off.
