Unisex ASICS Magic Speed 5

The ASICS Magic Speed 5 marks a return to its roots, shifting away from the high-stack trends. This one stays grounded, offering a nimble and snappy ride that actually lets you feel the road.

By combining FF LEAP and FF BLAST PLUS foams with a full-length carbon plate, ASICS has created a ride that’s light, fast, and seriously responsive. It’s a lot less bulky than the previous version, making it the perfect pick for runners who want that traditional, "connected" feel instead of massive stacks of foam.

Whether you're crushing tempo runs, hitting intervals, or lining up on race day, the Magic Speed 5 blurs the line between a daily trainer and a pure racer. It’s the ultimate budget-friendly 'speed secret' for anyone who wants an energised toe-off without the extra height.
