Buying ASICS SUPERBLAST 2 PARIS from the ASICS Flagship Store in Harajuku, Tokyo, Japan

Спорт

The ASICS SUPERBLAST 2, a shoe everyone was talking about, was released on June 5, 2024. I was among the excited crowd at the ASICS Flagship Store in Harajuku, Tokyo, Japan, at 11:00 AM when the doors opened to get my pair. The popularity was evident, as they were sold out in-store and online on the same day.

    Great video mate - top notch. Deserves way more views. Thanks for the photos of the flagship store, really great to see. I see they are still producing the Japan only available S4 - and in some new colourways. Sold out in NZ pretty much the same day. I was lucky enough to get a pair and have posted a video on my review after some miles. Keen to hear your thoughts.

    Size up for me. I usually wear US12-12.5, but I went US13 in these and perfect. You need plenty of wiggle room at the end, a bit more than a thumbs width, to be comfortable on longer runs etc.

    It's just there for no real reason. I have no place to put it. I'm a Japanese whisky specialist and writer. I have no more cupboard space, and when I tend to drink something, I happen to leave it out for a long time on those two shelves either side of me in my office. instagram.com/gentlemansclubwhisky/
