ASICS MegaBlast vs adidas Hyper Boost Edge : TPU vs PBA | Run Spesh "Solemates" Oska and Tom from Frontrunner Columbo record a "Solemates" Run Spesh episode comparing the ASICS MegaBlast and the adidas Hyper Boost Edge (Pro), framing it as a matchup of premium foams (TPU vs PBA) and debating what makes a "super trainer" versus a premium daily trainer. They praise the MegaBlast's versatility, light upper, lack of plate, durability (800–1200 km), and minor fit quirks that may require sizing up. For the adidas shoe, they like the stylish lifestyle/performance blend, the midsole feel, and the lighter traction outsole, but critique the rocker being too far forward and the stiffer upper/heel, plus limited lockdown options. They discuss price expectations, recommend trying both on due to fit differences, and outline best use cases and improvements they'd like to see. 00:00 Welcome to Soulmates 00:42 Today's Shoe Matchup 01:55 Why Superblast Wins 03:51 Fit Tweaks and Sizing 04:49 Plates and Modern Foams 05:43 Super Trainer vs Daily 06:40 Hyperboost Pro Deep Dive 10:18 Price and Value Talk 11:31 Fit Feel and Lockdown 12:43 Best Use Cases 13:47 Outsole Traction Breakthrough 14:58 Final Thoughts and Signoff
