Thank you for viewing! I'm replacing my training shoes for the marathon season and am listing these to help fund my next purchase. ▼ Overview ASICS NOVABLAST 5 Color: Greyish Purple/Coral Reef Size: Men's 25.5cm ▼ Where Purchased Super Sports XEBIO Sakudaira Store, purchased new in March 2025 ▼ Purchase Price 16,500 yen (including tax, retail price) ▼ Purpose of Purchase Marathon training (fast jogging, tempo runs) ▼ Seller (Me) Data 177cm, 61kg Stride-oriented Midfoot landing Running distance: Approximately 200km/month (60% jogging, 20% tempo runs, 20% intervals) Best half marathon time: 98 minutes (beginner runner) ▼ Usage History and Feel of These Shoes Used for a variety of purposes, from jogging to tempo runs, for a total of approximately 100km. Since I am relatively lightweight, I don't think there's much wear on the sole or compression of the cushioning, but the initial "bouncy" feel is probably reduced by 20-30%. I think they have about 200km of life left. ▼ Additional Notes ① Rubber Sole (Orange) I've included many photos, but the lugs (protrusions) in the middle of the forefoot and the outer part of the heel are worn. ② Exposed Cushioning (Purple) The areas without rubber are the parts that directly rub against the ground when landing, so the surface is slightly worn as shown in the photos. There are no cracks. ※ Those who have seen the actual product will understand, but this wear doesn't affect performance. ③ Insoles As you can see in the photos, the heel logo is not faded, and there is almost no compression because of my light weight (they are not thin). ④ Odor I washed them with shoe detergent and dried them immediately after they got wet in the rain or after wearing them, so they are almost odorless. ⑤ Laces It's hard to see in the photos, but there are a few pills from the friction of tying the laces tightly. There are no frays. ▼ Shipping I have discarded the shoe box and tags... I apologize. I can ship via Rakuraku Mercari Delivery from Nagano Prefecture on the weekend after purchase.
