Asics Blade FF Review

The Asics Blade FF is being replaced by the Asics Blade FF 2 in 2025.

Just spotted the Asics Blade FF. This looks like the successor to the Asics Gel Blade 8. A before-and-after comparison is below (the Blade FF is on the left).

Seems Asics has moved on from the “Gel” cushioning in the prior models and introduced “FlyteFoam” going forward (that’s what the FF stands for). This is their latest cushioning that’s supposed to be lighter, for the same amount of cushioning.

One response to “Asics Blade FF Review”

  1. Really good shoe. Had to go a half size down from my previous Asics shoes though. This shoe has the balance right between cushion and balance (low to the ground). Note, the shoes width is quite tight at first, you will notice how wide the laces need to be. After the break-in, they widen slightly so you must tie the laces tighter. This is great, it stretches where it needs to. For me, that means it stretches around the midfoot but keeps the narrow heel to fit my foot shape. Overall, 10/10
