AsicsMagic Speed 4
Powered by FF BLAST TURBO superfoam and a full-length carbon plate, the Magic Speed 4 delivers a sharp, efficient ride built for hard training days. Fast, stable, and confidence-inspiring, it’s the perfect speed companion to ASICS’ elite racing shoes.
Details
The ASICS Magic Speed 4 returns as a fast-day favorite, now upgraded with more cushioning, more responsiveness, and a more premium feel for speed workouts and uptempo miles. This iteration introduces a higher stack height and a forefoot FF BLAST TURBO drop-in layer — the same highly responsive superfoam found in ASICS’ elite racing shoes — encased within a stabilizing FF BLAST+ midsole shell. Together with a full-length carbon plate, the Magic Speed 4 delivers a snappy, efficient ride that comes alive when it’s time to surge, accelerate, or lock into tempo pace.
Despite the added cushioning, stability remains a strong point thanks to a slightly widened net base that creates a more secure platform at high speeds. Underfoot, full-length ASICSGRIP rubber offers durability and trustworthy traction to keep you confident during track sessions, road reps, or long intervals. Completing the package, the engineered mesh upper provides breathable comfort and reliable lockdown, helping maintain focus and rhythm during demanding workouts.
Designed to complement the METASPEED Paris racing line, the Magic Speed 4 is built to deliver fast, efficient training that prepares runners to peak on race day — a true workhorse for burning rubber all season long.
