When testers compared the two versions, they didn’t notice much difference. “Essentially they are exactly the same shoe,” said one of them. Even the price doesn’t change.

Reviewers had no doubts about this, it’s an extremely comfortable shoe. The step-in feel is very pleasant, the toe box is roomy, and while the heel collar is quite rigid, is also well-padded, and no issues were reported in this department.
An expert reported that “the lockdown is great” and he could feel the “lovely fit of the upper,” while another runner noticed that the shoe hugged his “wider foot nicely with no irritation whatsoever.”
The midsole borders on perfection
The FF Blast Plus foam is soft and bouncy and the ride is described as being fun by wearers. Testers perfectly put it:

- “super soft and super responsive”
- “it’s just a fantastic running shoe.”

Wow looks
As happened with the standard version, reviewers appreciated the design and colors of this shoe. An expert stated, quite simply, “I think it looks awesome.”
What’s more, it’s made with some recycled materials.
Slightly pricey
The price has remained the same as the standard iteration, $145, which is another great reason to consider the Novablast TR. It is a little on the more expensive side though, considering that the average for a Zapatillas de running Asics GT-1000 11 is $123.
