The ASICS Superblast 2 Ekiden Unisex Shoes deliver an energised feel from the very first stride, engineered for versatility to flow into your daily training. Designed as a high-performance super trainer, these running shoes blend responsive cushioning with a lightweight, bouncy ride that supports everything from faster paces and tempo workouts to relaxed recovery runs. 

Inspired by Japan’s celebrated long-distance relay, the striking ASICS Ekiden colourway captures the race’s legacy, powerful team unity and passion for pushing performance further.

An asymmetric mesh upper design not only enhances breathability and comfort, but also adapts to your foot’s natural motion for a secure fit that keeps you feeling confident through varied training sessions. The advanced dual-foam midsole features FF BLAST PLUS and FF TURBO PLUS technologies, combining soft impact absorption with explosive rebound for an experience that’s one of the lightest and springiest in the ASICS range. 

With a max cushioned platform and competition-ready outsole, the Superblast 2 Ekiden is a premium choice when you’re seeking a running shoe that’s as capable on long runs as it is in engaging at a tempo pace.
