The Asics Kid’s Novablast 2 Pre-School shoe is the kid’s version of the iconic NOVABLAST™ series. It features an energetic bounce underfoot that’s inspired by the feeling of jumping on a trampoline. Created using a kid’s-specific last, these shoes offer a more accommodating fit for growing feet. With a solid rubber outsole and medial wrap-up, these shoes improve durability. Meanwhile, motivational details, like the phrase “Better your Best” appear on the outsole. We’ve also integrated our CUB MATCH™ sockliner to help kids recognize the left shoe from the right shoe.Breathable mesh upperCUB MATCH™ sockliner uses a tiger graphic to help kids recognize the left shoe from the right shoeThe solid rubber outsole and medial wrap-up improve the shoe’s durabilityThe phrase, “Better your Best” appears on the outsole SpecsSurface RoadHeel Drop 8 mmWeight 158 g/5.6 oz Asics Kid’s Novablast 2 Pre-School Papaya/Dusk Violet
