ASICS released the SonicBlast 2, a plated speed trainer, according to a Canadian Running Magazine review published Oct. 8, 2026. The shoe has an 8 mm drop, a 45 mm/37 mm stack, and weighs 242 g in men's US 9. It is priced at $230 and was available Sept. 15. The reviewer found the dual-density FF Turbo Squared and Flight Foam Blast midsole bouncier than the first version. The shoe includes a forked plastic Astro Plate. The reviewer estimated 500-600 km of outsole durability. This is the only report in the current coverage, so no conflicting figures or claims have been reported.
