In this video I’m giving you my initial review of the ASICS Superblast 3, and I’m basically asking the question: is this the only running shoe you might need? I’m a non-elite runner down in the South West of England, and I’ve taken this one out for a few early runs to get a feel for the upper, midsole and outsole before I start making any big, sweeping claims. The headline here is it’s got that max-cushioned, super-soft steady trainer vibe that the Superblast line is known for, but it’s feeling more fun than the v2 and—crucially—much lighter. I run through the stats first, then break it down section by section: how the upper feels on foot, what the midsole is doing on the run, and whether the outsole looks like it’s going to behave when the roads aren’t perfect. One of the big takeaways is the weight drop: my UK 10.5 / US 11.5 is 30g lighter than the Superblast 2, which is a proper difference you can feel. I also talk value and where I think it could sit in a normal rotation—potentially covering a lot of bases if you want a do-it-all daily trainer. And just to be crystal clear: ASICS haven’t sent me this shoe, they’re not paying me, and they’re not seeing the video before you lot.
