- I bought the best rated running shoes on amazon to give them a full test to see if they were as good as the reviews said. Follow along to see how the Asics Noosa Tri 14 get on as we rack up some miles in a session along the Thames Path in London.

As someone that prefers low drop and a firm foam, this is one of the few shoes left that works for me. Ran my last marathon in them!
Same. Bonus… also I live just south of Noosa.
I live in Noosa and have done the least 13 Noosa Tris . . . Gotta say I can't recall too many people actually using them to race in at Noosa. Especially with the plated super shoes now in proliferation, definitely more of a training shoe with crazy colours
Every shoe company needs to adopt these color ways into their lineups. Easily the best looking running shoes of the year
But also release a black colorways. The Nosa Tri would be the GOAT casual shoe but ONLY releases in ridiculous colorways that work for runners or kindergartners 🤣
I absolutely loved the tri 8 and 12, but have since realised I need a shoe with more stability. I still wear them as casual shoes and love them. The 8s were the crazy rainbow colour way, and after the initial shock of how bright they were, they definitely made me enjoy the brighter colour ways of any shoe I buy now. I'm glad to see you reviewing more Asics shoes. I struggle to enjoy running in other brands as much as Asics. You should definitely visit Noosa next time you come to Australia. Great beaches, weather, food, and running!
Love this shoe it’s so good
My favorite daily trainer! I love the comfort, love the rocker, the lightness, the quality, colors and durability. The foam is a little bit stiff, but there's enough cushioning for even long runs. And the stiffness helps with the rocker feeling, the stability and durability. They feel almost like they have some nylon plate inside. Like gliderides but lighter and more exciting. Only the grip could be better but it's a minor issue.
I used to favor more plain shoes. I love the colors on that one. Yet another sign I am coming to terms with being 'a runner'. I'm a fan of your reviews because they're to the point and lots of info. Thanks!
One of the most underrated shoes out there! I agree, one of the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn, and I found the foam softened a little after 60-70km, and interestingly the wet weather grip improved a little as well. Great for all kinds of runs, except long!
Underratted? It´s literally BEST RATED running shoe on amazon as a title says lol
@@matejburian3191 LOL! Perhaps “underhyped” would have been a better choice of word… fact is, a year ago (when Ben released this review), no other big shoe reviewer was giving the Tri Noosa a look, or was giving it a “meh” at best. Not saying that Amazon should be your go-to for shoe reviews, but among the shoe reviewer community this shoe was underrated!
@@matejburian3191 LOL! Perhaps “underhyped” would have been a better choice of word… fact is, a year ago (when Ben released this review), not many big shoe reviewers gave the Tri Noosa more than a "yeah, its okay", if they reviewed it at all. Not saying that Amazon should be your go-to for shoe reviews, but based on most ShoeTuber/influencer/"expert" reviews, the Tri Noosa 14 was underrated.
I hope Kiki got some treats in the end too. Probably wasn't too impressed with the running shoes
If she’s anything like mine loved the box though 😼
She loves all the shoe boxes!!
Haha.. she gets lots of treats and many hugs, cuddles, strokes and brushes all the time. Most pampered cat in London!! 🤣
Few people/ UA-camrs talk about this model. I was the only one wearing this shoe in the marathon. . .noosa is perfect for all kind of races. Highly recommended no matter if you are a beginner or advanced. And very fair prices btw! 🇧🇷🤜
Good shoe. I enjoyed the Evoride 2, which is essentially the same shoe as the Noosa Tri-13. Nice and light, and the geometry promoted a good turnover.
Great review Ben! I don’t run but wear running shoes every day as they are so comfy!
Man, you work so hard for this community. Good review and very well editted. Respect for building the channel, it's a lot of graft
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you for your kind words!
What a beautiful backdrop for a run! Stellar review.
The Noosa Tris are the only thing I buy now. I've tried a little of everything and they are great. I have 13s and 14s. Can't wait to get some 15s.
Good choice! I'd like to get a pair of 15's too!
Love the colours on your text headers, nice nod to the colourway of the shoe!
Great video, I had the 13 and have the 14. Love them. They are a bit of the firmer side but but my foot strike seems to really work well with the rocker and I find it rolls really nice, so not harsh at all. And the 14 is defo softer than the 13! Also, durability is epic!
Very cool backdrop to the run as you look across the river!
Bought this shoe about 4 months ago haven't run in them yet because of injury just love the colour's & design thanks for a another great review Ben 👍
I have it too and love it! Did really well in my half marathon race over road and dirt - close to a PB too!
Great vlog as usual Ben, I love this show, the only negative for me is the grip in wet weather but apart from that they're my favourite
Good on you for getting the best treats for your cat :)
Looking forward to spending some time on the Sunshine Coast next year - no triathlons for me, but may try and take in a parkrun
Great video Ben. Seth JD had Noosa Tri in the running for shoe of the year. Same mid sole and outsole as glideride.
I have done a fair few miles in a fair few shoes (not as many as Ben!) but I had the 13’s and still love them today… even if I’ve never done a Tri. Been meaning to add a new pair to the rotation.
Great video and review. Have not run in this shoe. However, I find it hard to a roomy toe box in a lower drop shoe. Good luck in Valencia!
I have 440k in my pair... Really versatile for any kind of runs under 12-15k (You start feeling the asphalt on long runs over 15k.)... Feels like a lighter and more modern Boston 9 with a slightly worse grip.
I bought these because Seth James DeMoor was a huge fan, and indeed he tends to be spot on, as he is with these shoes. They are surprisingly versatile, and great value for money. They are currently my daily trainers, for anything from track intervals to recovery runs.
Found a pair at the outlet in Lancaster, PA for less than half price and love them! I have a skinny heel and the grab and fit is excellent, no slippage! Great review...thanks Ben! ~Megan
Love mine! 200ish k in them, use them for short fast or medium long steady. Terrible if you step right on a piece of gravel or large stone. Like the geometry. I'm mostly a forefoot striker but these reward a midfoot strike with quick cadence. Helps with running efficiency on the longer runs. Definitely the plushest upper that still feels like.
great stuff ben!
I bought the red ones , my first ever ASICS . I love the colour . I’ve run up to about 10kms and found them good . They are so light . $220 here in Australia.
Hello there, great video !
I was wondering would you go first to novablast 3 or Tri 14 ?
Also ran my last marathon in them, got close to my PB! low fuss, efficient shoe that really looked after my feet well over the 42.2km
Any updates on the Noosa? :) bought a pair after watching this review and loving it
I love the riot of colours. More running shoes should follow suit. Sounds like a good sort of trainer.
That's an impressively large dead-cat on top of the camera @ 3:39 👍😁
Cheers for another great review 😎
Great review! Love my Noosa Tri 13s. The rocker seems to alleviate any harshness with the firm midsole. I also have the Glideride 3s which have a layer of FF Blast Plus and they feel great. Hopefully the Noosa Tri 15s gets the "blast treatment".
Hi. Which is better Noosa Tri 13 or the Glideride 3.
The Evoride 2 is one of my favourite shoes that I've run in, hugely underhyped, feels great at pace but also for daily training miles (I use it mainly for threshold runs and it's never felt anything but smooth and enjoyable). As I understand it it's basically the Tri Noosa 13 but with a toned down upper. When my pair run out (which I'm expecting is going to take forever) I'm probably gonna replace them with the latest version of the Noosa because the colorways are soooo much better.
Yes, same midsole and outsole as Evoride but lighter (slighty less plush) upper for Triathlon use.
Evoride 3 is a pinch softer. Absolutely lovely
I used to have some the noosa tri 11s and they were my favourite shoes so I do not doubt these ones had a great review
@Ben Parkes are you going to the run Saturday morning organised by the marathon? I’ll be there be great to see you. Following since you last did Valencia. 😊
I have done about 300ks on my noosa tri 14s and I loooooove them it’s actually so comfy and the colours are so fun
I've owned an older version of the shoe and remember them fondly!
Never had a good experience with asics shoes, so would probably give these a kiss. Love the colourway though!! Might get something more exciting that plain black in my next set of trainers ha🎉
My most favourite shoes at the moment. It's firm, but comforable enough for any kind of work out (easy, long run, tempo, race).
Hi Ben, just wondered how you would compare the Puma velocity nitro 2 to the asics noosa 14?
Fantastic shoes, super comfortable and feel nice and fast! And can’t beat the price
I’ve bought these shoes twice that says it all…stunning and comfortable love them ❤
Tri-13 was my first half marathon shoe! Asics most underrated model.
I had the noosa 11 which I liked a lot. Did like the wacky colour schemes
Hey Ben, how long were you off with that calf strain you had last year. I just had something similar pop up with a marathon in 9 weeks
They look cool ...but I want to see your shoe closet!!
I loved mine, so light and fast, also managed to pull more than 900km of training in them
Well I have never ran in the Noosa Tri 14 but they sent me the 15’s to test out and well I am kinda liking them lots. The color on the one I am testing are crazy but I love it. But nope I will always wear socks.
I love mine and used them in my last triathlon 👌😁
I got pair Ben they brilliant I've done 27 marathons in them 👍🏃😁🙌
How do they compare to Mach 4/5 ? Or Pegasus 39 ?
Reminds me a lot of the Hoka Rincon. How would you compare the two? On a side note, I wouldn’t mind watching a review video of cat treats by Ben 😂
The stack heights you show are at odds with other sites which say 26 & 21...?
I have 2 Noosa Tri 14 the Red And Purple i want to buy the Black 'cause i love this shoe and one of my favorite daily trainer👍😊
Can't seem to find any reviews on NOOSA TRI 15
If you like em, you could try the Asics Glideride 3 ... they have a plate, not as flashy but definitely great
Noosa tri same feeling as glide ride 3?
Love the styling of the shoe but I have to wear stability trainer. 👍🏃🏻♂️
You should try the new Noosa try 15s. I consider it a pretty good update, thicker foam, and definitely bounce your right out of the box. They might be Asics best shoe ever.
How can I find out what music you have on your videos?
Do they work for gym work? Im heavy and looking for some confort.
Where can we buy your running shorts
Hi!asics noosa tri 14 vs saucony endorphin speed 2/3?thanks
Completely unrelated comment but do you think I can run Valencia in the Nike Invincible that you use so much? I used them today on a long run for the first time, 30k and found them very comfy and very easy to hold pace. Aiming for around 4:40 hrs so not a fast time. Only the bulk of them worries me considering the distance.
For a lot of people the most important thing is finding a comfortable shoe that won't give them any issues when out for that long. Yes, on paper it's not ideal with the weight, but it's got great cushioning and very comfy. Good luck at Valencia!
Which is better this or superblast?
Gel Noosa Tri in children's shoes are pretty good actually.
Hey, Great review I have one question. I stopped running 1 year ago because of knee injury (meniscus injury) I wasn't able to run even 3km. Now my knees are better and i am planning to start again. I have Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 39 and i want to buy one more shoe. I have 2 options, Nike Zoom Fly 5 and Nike ZoomX Invincible Run Flyknit 2. I think maybe flyknit 2 can be good for my injury. What do you think ? Do you recommend Flyknit 2 for me, can it help me or Zoom Fly is better choice ?
Try bpc157 lol
which BT headset are you using?
I still have my Noosa Tri 6s
For 70kg and runs between 4 to 4:15 min/Km tempo runs? I’m between this and novablast 3, but I’m afraid with this 5mm drop. Tks
Score, those are Amazing for speed work at only 7oz!!!!
Noosa Tri 14 is amazing imo
What about reviewing Decathlon Kiprun Carbon running shoes ?
review is on the channel Gareth!
Thank you must of missed that vlog 👍🏼
Try the Asic GlideRide 3 the best long distance work horse shoe u can buy.
If u hunt the internet u can get under £100. Normal price £160
I agree. The Goldilocks shoe for me not to soft and not to firm. I got mine from Amazon for 98 quid.
Just got some noosa 13 on asics outlet. £54!!!!
I have the NOOSA TRI 14
I really like the color. It’s loud but in a good way 😂
If only Nike can be as great as Asics when it comes to color way, they will be perfect.
Not a patch on hoka, used these once binned went back to hoka
Ran a half marathon in these today. Left the carbon plated shoes off to the side for this one. Great shoes. Nossa 14s can pretty much do anything. I recommended these when you asked on Strava for shoe review ideas. My review is on amazon at the top of that list. Pretty funny how that came full circle.....I guess I'm everywhere 🤣🤣
I love those they are the most comfortable imo nike has one shoe close
Best shoes ever for years to come I got my first pair last month
Probably my favourite shoe. The best non-carbon shoe for running fast in.
Absolutely love this shoe. I'm on my second pair whit 1193km in it! Daily trainers!
I have these and absolutely love them, I got them for $95.00 USD on…. Amazon lol Best running shoe I have ever had.
Apparently, two weeks ago I was interested in the bright colors this shoe has. But I do noticed that it was only fytefoam, not fytefoamPlus or FFBlast. I already have a few ASICS with fytefoam so I am done with that and now have been enjoying the novablast 3 very much. At £99, I will definitely think about it as I really love the vivid colors on shoes… it is a shoe of it’s kind, none other like this. I do like the look very very much. Would not forget about this shoe for sure.
I bought a pair, and main says it had the FF blast foam, not the flight what ever 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️
800km in, best all rounder on the market
Super durable shoes, I’ve had mates that have three pairs and have gotten 1000+km out of them
Asics is the old reliable of running shoes. Even will ferral apparently wore asics back in his younger days
75€ on sale now.
I dont get amazon when it comes to running shoes...prices, sizes are all over the place, dont match RRP at all or from equivalent websites.
Amazon is a nightmare to find anything on in my opinion, yet i keep using it due to things like easy delivery, amazon lockers etc
Yes.. it was such a pain trying to make this review even. I said the shoes were then down to £81.. which they were 2 days before the video was released when I was filming. Then on the day they were up to £141.. different prices in all sizes. Not good for shoes! But good for research at least! Best stick to the traditional websites I think.
I got them the other day, it is stiff but very light.Not very responsive like saucony endorphin speed 3.Might not be that durable but needs to be seen.Price wise it is a gr8 shoe.Definitely gr8 shoe to add in rotation.
Isn't running like u do really ruff n hard on the knees? Thats why i never ran, don't want to blow my knees/joints out. 🤗
humans evolve as long distance runners - that's why we are able to sweat - to regulate our body temperature.
Most animals cannot, and although they can run way faster than humnans, humans can run much longer and therefore there is no escape from us.
NOT running or moving hours every day in the sun is unnatural and makes you sick.
Running is only harsh on your knees and joints if your body is not used to it, because of our degenerated bodies (sitting and hardly moving our entire life, just for fill out stupid papers and click on computers (says me as the IT guy here!).
Why? Because we allowed it to happen. Enslavement by our economy
Hope it perfoms better than it looks 😂
