Gravel running shoes are on the rise, and the Asics Blazeblast is the latest release to slip into this category of all-terrain sneakers that combine the comfortable cushioning of road shoes with grippy outsoles designed to handle light trails.
In this case, the Blazeblast shares a lot of design features with the popular Asics Novablast road running line, offering a more substantial outsole than both the Asics Novablast 6 and the TR version launched alongside the Asics Novablast 5.
