Noooo, you can't sacrifice the jelly babies 😁 Quick question: I have tried a bunch of belts and I struggle to get my phone (in it's case) in the front pocket. What size/model is your phone, if you don't mind me asking.

[@YuennyLam]

Haha.....it'll be so sad if I have to lose the jelly babies. I don't mind at all 😊 I have the Google Pixel 7 with quite a slim case. I've never really had a big phone so they usually fit in the belts I have/have had.

I never knew ASICS did that with shoes. I wonder do other companies.🤔 Another tip for shoe buying is to trawl through Vinted and set up searches for certain shoes. It’s amazing how many people post relatively unused shoes at decent discounts. I’ve picked up a few great bargains. And one final tip, if for any reason the belt doesn’t work out, I can recommend Decathlon’s Kiprun belt is great, cheapest and best belt I’ve ever had, after wearing through 3 overpriced Salomon belts.

I've read about it a while ago. If you sign up to be a One Asics member then you get 90-day gear trial. I even e-mailed them to clarify that I can wear them outside running and still return them if I need to. I was getting quite fed up wasting so much money on shoes that don't work for me. I sell my unwanted barely used running shoes on Vinted but never bought any 😁 I looked at the Kiprun belt and it looked good. It was quite hard for me to decide which belt to try, neither the Camelbak or Decathlon one had any reviews on them. Thanks for the suggestions 😊

How are you finding the Novablast 4? I've been umming and ahhing whether I should get a pairt (the trail version for the additional grip)

[@YuennyLam]

I've only been on a little run in the Novablast 4s, so it's early days to tell, especially after the 3s really not working out for me for some strange reason. I still have the Novablast 3 TRs which I absolutely love and don't want to stop running in them. I wonder if the 4 TRs would be as good. I haven't seen the 4 TRs anywhere though 🤔

[@JonathanMallett]

@@YuennyLam I saw them on sale at sportsshoes. Would asics let you swap shoes as part of the 90 day trial policy?

[@YuennyLam]

I'm not sure. I messaged them about returning them if they are no good for me and they confirmed I can, even if I've worn them. I guess they would refund the pair I bought so I can buy a different pair? I'm not entirely sure how it works and seems too good to be true. I've also never heard or read anyone talk about this 90-day gear trial from Asics 🤔

[@YuennyLam]

It's weird they've never appeared on the ASICS website. I look all the time and never seen the 4 TRs on there. Unless it was so brief I've somehow missed it.
