ASICS Superblast 3 vs Superblast 2: LEAP Foam, Fit Changes & Who Each Shoe Is For | Run Spesh

In this Run Spesh "Solemates" episode from Frontrunner Colombo, Oska and Tom compare the ASICS Superblast 2 and the revamped Superblast 3, focusing on the major shift to softer, faster-compressing LEAP foam (an A-TPU with an EVA stability piece) versus the firmer feel of Superblast 2's EVA/Peba blend. They discuss how the new foam changes underfoot comfort, pace effort, stability, and likely durability (estimating Superblast 2 around 700 km and Superblast 3 closer to 500 km), plus how use cases may shift toward Superblast 3 as a premium super daily trainer for easy miles, recovery, long runs, and even marathons. They also cover improved upper fit/forefoot accommodation, missing rear pull tab, aggressive heel bevel, wide stable base, reduced weight to 237 g, and a 46 mm stack. 00:00 Welcome to Soulmates 00:40 Why Superblast 3 Matters 01:25 Foam Change Explained 02:05 Feel Underfoot Debate 04:03 Durability Expectations 04:52 Best Runs for Each 06:12 Where It Fits in Lineup 07:11 Stability and Break In 08:04 Fit and Upper Updates 09:27 Heel Bevel and Ride 10:26 Weight and Stack Numbers 11:49 Who Should Buy It 12:54 Wrap Up and Release Date
