The VERSABLAST 4 shoe is a versatile training partner for varied workouts and running regimens. Inspired by our Blast Beyond Series, we wanted to make this shoe softer and lighter. It’s designed to provide good comfort for a range of activities. By focusing on the shoe’s energy return, we equipped the midsole foam with a responsive rebound for a fast feel underfoot.

*PRONATION:
Pronation is part of the natural movement of the human body and refers to the way your foot rolls inward for impact distribution upon landing. Understanding your pronation type can help you find a comfortable running shoe. The VERSABLAST 4 is made for Neutral and Overpronation.
Neutral
- Foot type - Normal size arches
- Push off - There is even distribution from the front of the foot.
- Considered Injuries - Less likely due to effective shock absorption, but neutral runners are not immune to injury.
- How your foot contacts the ground - The foot lands on outside of the heel,then rolls inward (pronates) to absorb shock and support body weight.
Underpronation
- Foot type - High arches
- Push off - The pressure is on smaller toes on outside of foot.
- Considered Injuries - Plantar fasciitis, shin splints, ankle strain.
- How your foot contacts the ground - The outer side of the heel hits the ground at an increased angle with little or no normal pronation, causing a large transmission of shock through the lower leg.
