The NOVABLAST® 4 PLATINUM running shoe features a midsole and outsole geometry that helps produce an energized ride.

A tongue wing construction in the upper helps improve the fit while reducing tongue movement. It's complemented with an engineered woven upper that offers more stretch, ventilation, and durability.

Designed For Neutral/Underpronation

Neutral

• Foot Type

  Normal size arches

• Push Off

  There is even distribution from the front of the foot.

• Considered Injuries

  Less likely due to effective shock absorption, but neutral runners are not immune to injury.

• How your foot contacts the ground

  The foot lands on outside of the heel, then rolls inward (pronates) to absorb shock and support body weight.

Underpronation

• Foot Type

  High arches

• Push Off

  The pressure is on smaller toes on outside of foot.

• Considered Injuries

  Plantar fasciitis, shin splints, ankle strain.

• How your foot contacts the ground

  The outer side of the heel hits the ground at an increased angle with little or no normal pronation, causing a large transmission of shock through the lower leg.
