    Great review, thanks mate. I've been watching your channel for quite a while and you're fast becoming one of the best reviewers on TH-cam - concise, really informative and honest. Perfect for someone trying to make a decision on which shoe to buy. A real bonus too, is the bird-song in the background of most of your vids. Thanks again and keep up the great work.

    I have both and both are great shoes and comfortable on your feet for all day long wear. For me, at 58 yrs old, 5'10", 190 pounds, recreational jogger, but do HIIT style workouts 4 times a week, I prefer the stability of the NovaBlast 4's. I did need to buy a wide in the NovaBlast 4, whereas did not need to in the Rebel v4's.

    If you are able, I would like to see a comparison between the Asics NovaBlast 4 vs the New Balance Fresh Foam X v13. Ride, fit, stability, and outsole grip in wet weather. Keep of the fine work and thank you for your reviews.

    Would either work for speed walking or half jog at a good pace for a little then walk some . Trying to get back to where I. was in December before total knee replacement surgery or should I go with new balance more v4 or 1080v13. Or other suggestions. I need them to be under 8mm , preferably 4 to 5 mm drop

    • @run-are
      @run-are  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I'd be leaning towards the Rebel for the speed walking stuff due to the light weight of the shoe. The Novablast is going to be the more comfortable, stable and last longer if that's a concern for you?

    the NOVABLAST 4 enhancements is now sort of comparable to the 1080 V13...also bears similarities now with nimbus 25/26 with adding more foam and plushness

    Appreciate how you’ve described the rides. Q: do you find the nova v4 ride different than its predecessor v3

    • @run-are
      @run-are  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes I find it very different. The foam in the 4 is much more dense and feels like it has more "guts", overall a more solid feeling shoe but still has the same sort of feedback where the bounce comes from. I find the 3 very spongey and less dense. I bottomed out the 3 in the forefoot after about 200km. I prefer the ride in the 4.

    After 700 km with invincible 3 ,, i decided to buy nova 4,, today i ran 8 km and for me it's terrible, too much ground contact and i feel very tired,, the funny thing that i ran in pist,, i test it about pace 5:30 to 4:30 it was not good for me at all,, i don't know if i contniue with it, it will get better or no

    • @run-are
      @run-are  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @@nimamou I think its because you have run so much in the Invincible, which is the bounciest running shoe ever made. Any shoe you run in after the invincible will probably feel a bit boring and lifeless as you could be perceiving the ride as firm or too much ground feel. When the first Invincible was released I loved the soft bouncy ride so much I ended up running in them all of the time and it actually ruined my experience in other shoes - even racing super shoes didn't feel so special.
      To answer your question, yes they will start to feel really good if you stop wearing the Invincible and you reset your softness scale.

    I'm a 9 in my street shoes (vans, adidas,...). I go a half size up in Kinvaras (9.5) for running. How does the rebel fit? Would I be good with a 9 or 9.5?

    • @run-are
      @run-are  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Rebel is true to size with a wide toebox, meaning the length will be very close to the Kinvara in the same size 9.5 but will be wider. Hopefully that helps?

    • @harrygoldsmith6792
      @harrygoldsmith6792 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I usually upsized to accommodate for the potential feet swelling. But with a wider toe box does that mean the 9 should work?
      I’ve just always upsized half a size out of habit but was wondering if that was necessary with this shoe.
