Asics Superblast 3 vs Megablast: One Clear Winner (After 6 Months of Testing)

Asics Superblast 3 vs Megablast — which versatile running shoe should you buy in 2026? After hundreds of miles in both shoes, here's the honest comparison from our expert reviewer Alex Cyr that nobody else is making. These might be the two best all-around running shoes in the world right now. Same price range, same versatility, same brand. But one key foam difference changes everything about how you should use them. We break down FF Blast Plus vs FF Turbo Squared, compare the ride feel at every pace, and show you exactly where each shoe fits in the full Asics lineup from Novablast to Metaspeed. We also cover three rotation strategies to help you decide: the two-shoe setup, the specialist approach, and the one-shoe solution. 0:00 - Intro 0:40 - Specs comparison 0:58 - Superblast 3 background 1:24 - Megablast background 1:46 - Head to Head 2:03 - Foam differences 3:16 - Which is faster? 3:50 - Speciality of each shoe 4:48 - ASICS Spectrum of Blast 5:54 - Which one should you buy? 7:15 - Alex's favourite 7:45 - Which will be more popular? 🔴 Subscribe to get all our training tips, running guides and gear reviews :    / @marathonhandbook   🔴 Watch our shoe review playlist:    • Running Shoe Reviews   Reviewer: Alex Cyr IG:   / cyresy_10   Strava:   / strava   Check out our other recent shoe reviews: ASICS Superblast 3    • ASICS Superblast 3 l Did the World's Best ...   Saucony Endorphin Pro 5 and Endorphin Azura    • A Super Shoe Shouldn't Feel This Plush: Sa...   ASICS Metaspeed Sky Tokyo vs Edge Tokyo    • ASICS Metaspeed Tokyo Edge vs Sky: FASTEST...   ASICS Megablast vs Sonicblast    • ASICS Megablast vs. Sonicblast | 100% HONE...   HOKA Rocket X3    • HOKA Rocket X3: The MOST COMFY Supershoe? ...   Puma Velocity NITRO 4    • Puma Velocity Nitro 4 | Was this NECESSARY?   New Balance FuelCell Rebel V5    • New Balance FuelCell Rebel V5: The FASTEST...   ASICS Metaspeed Tokyo    • New Balance FuelCell Rebel V5: The FASTEST...   Brooks Hyperion Elite 5    • Brooks Hyperion Elite 5: Something is MISS...   Puma FAST-R Nitro Elite 3 Review:    • Fastest Running Shoe IN THE WORLD? | Puma ...   Nike Vaporfly 4 Review:    • Nike Vaporfly 4: LIGHTEST Racing Shoe (100...   HOKA Clifton 10 Review:    • HOKA Clifton 10: It's BIGGER (but is it BE...   Adidas Adios Pro 4 Review:    • adidas Adios Pro 4: The BEST SUPERSHOE YET...   Brooks Glycerin 22 Review:    • Brooks Glycerin 22: the most ADVANCED easy...   HOKA Bondi 9 Review:    • THE HOKA BONDI 9 l HOKA's comfiest running...   Adidas Adios Pro Evo 1 Review:    • The BEST Racing Shoe of 2024: Adidas Adize...   Brooks Glycerin Max Review:    • The Brooks Glycerin Max Review | The Runni...   HOKA Skyflow Review:    • Hoka Skyflow Review l The Best Hoka Traini...   Brooks Ghost 16 Review:    • Brooks Ghost 16: In-depth Shoe Review | Is...   On Cloudmonster 2 Review:    • On Cloudmonster 2: In-Depth Review | Is Th...   Hoka Skyward X Review:    • Hoka Skyward X: In-depth Shoe Review | Is ...   Lululemon Beyondfeel Review:    • Review: Lululemon Beyondfeel   Hoka One One Cielo X1 Review:    • Hoka One One Cielo X1: In-Depth Review | A...   Nike Alphafly 3 Review:    • Nike Alphafly 3: In-depth Review | Is the ...   Brooks Hyperion Elite 4 Review:    • Brooks Hyperion Elite 4: In-Depth Review |...   Over 240,000 runners read our newsletter.
