    SB2 is a fantastic do it all shoe! Great price.

    • p10wz0r on 23/01/2026 - 15:52

      What sort of shoes do you normally wear for reference?

      I need solid high stack foam to stave off achilles tendonitis and worst case scenario of shin splints. Yeah, I'm in my 40s.

      At the moment I'm on Novablast 5 but haven't found the foam to be as responsive as I was hoping. The most recent shoes I've really enjoyed were the NB Supercomp Elite 4s.

      Thanks

        I've never tried the novablasts. I went from Brooks Adrenaline GTS to the Superblast 1s and never looked back. Then onto the Superblast 2s and now rotate between them and the Megablasts. Megablasts more responsive than SB2s but also a fair bit more expensive. I believe ASICS has 20% off RRP for members at the moment though.

          Thanks for the reply - much appreciated.

        Archilles tendonitis and Shin splint need rest, not new shoes. Don't be like me and continue to push 100km/week and then out for 3 months. Leg issues usually mean either increasing volume or intensity too quickly or weakness in other parts of the legs/hips/glutes/core. I'd suggest going to see a sports physio (the most essential is finding a good one). I'm not sure if it's universal, but I get 5 free physio sessions per year on Medicare here in Melbourne. Novablast5 is a good shoe and so is Superblast, but if you don't rest, it might take even longer to recover. Just a suggestion.

          Physio here. High stack shoes CAN be a valid way to help reduce load through the achilles and shins, and there might be multiple reasons to do so rather than resting. Hopefully p10wz0r is working with a good physio already.

          FYI the 5 "free" sessions through medicare are via a Chronic Disease Management Plan and is a national thing. It is meant to be for chronic (usually >12 months) conditions, but some GPs do give them out a bit more freely. I say "free" because some private practices may not bulk bill and do mixed billing.

            @babymilky: Thank you for the information, see my reply below!

        • p10wz0r on 24/01/2026 - 11:40

          OK….everyone is different right? It sounds like you're making some assumptions based on your own experience, not least around distance, rest and recovery.

          To clarify, I don't typically get shin splints, but I developed them very quickly when I switched to an Adidas plate runner, and they cleared up in the first week when I switched back to a standard foam sole. That was a few shoes ago and it hasn't happened since (and didn't happen before), so I'm putting it down to the plate not working for me.

          In terms of tendonitis I know I should probably lay off a little bit but it's very low level if I manage it properly and the shoe - I've found - is an absolutely huge part of that for me along with physio-prescribed strengthening exercises for my calves (especially my left) and the right amount of running vs rest etc.

            @p10wz0r: I’d say it’s more related to the shoe geometry than the plate itself.
            I don’t know if the shoes you tried were the Boston’s, but they don’t work for everyone.

      • mbck on 25/01/2026 - 20:21

        I have the elite, saving it for a marathon. But when i tried it on, i knew it was a special shoe!

        Ive tried the sb2, and it also feels great.

        The nb5 is squishier so for me it feels like it's sucking my energy each run. It is soft and squishy though.

        Try the decathlon kd900x.2. Go to the shop and see if they've one in your size. I think you'll enjoy that one!

    Anything for Novablast?

  • stuarty9 on 23/01/2026 - 17:29

    Such a good price on SB2. I’ve got them, 130km in and very happy.

  • Drakesy on 23/01/2026 - 18:39

    Incredible shoes, wouldn't recommend for walking, great for running though. Just wish they came in wide fit.

  • kommy on 23/01/2026 - 19:11

    Are the SB2 true to size?

  • ham0718 on 23/01/2026 - 22:26

    Usually a Saucony fanboy here. Anyone with experience in both have something to compare it with? Superblast sounds maybe like an Endorphin Speed?

    • tof on 24/01/2026 - 00:01

      I don't have personal experience with both however most reviews I checked call out the Sonicblast providing a similar feel to the Endorphin Speed given it's a bit firmer for speedier runs and it has a PEBAX plate.

      I have too many shoes in my rotation already so I used the reviews to stop me from buying.

      I'm 40km through my Superblast 2 and am happy with it.

      Superblast is a fairly unique shoe, I don't think there's much like it (apart from the megablast). I can only compare to the ES3, but the superblast is much firmer and bouncier, but because of the amount of cushion you can run comfortably for much longer. ES3 felt a bit faster, probably just because of the size of the superblast. Superblast works well for tempo/threshold/long runs with efforts, but I wouldn't use it for the track. I like it for easy runs, but some people find it too firm to run slower in.

      I suppose the use case for the superblast is similar to the ES3, but the superblast is much better for long runs. Superblast is also much more durable. I got ~850km in my superblast 1 and ~900km in my superblast 2. I only got about 500km in both pairs of ES3.
