Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 is a premium neutral trainer designed for runners who prioritize maximum cushioning and joint comfort during daily training or long-distance efforts. Featuring advanced impact-absorption technologies and an eco-conscious build, this shoe provides a plush, glove-like fit that helps runners go further with reduced fatigue. While it offers unparalleled softness for asphalt surfaces, runners seeking a highly rigid or minimalist feel for speed work may find the generous stack height a bit too soft for rapid transitions.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Gel-Nimbus 27 is a neutral shoe, meaning it provides cushioning but not specific medial posting for stability. If you have severe pronation issues, consult a podiatrist first.
Can I use these for trail running?
While the HYBRID ASICSGRIP provides decent traction, these are designed specifically for asphalt and paved roads. They lack the rock plates and aggressive lug depth needed for technical trails.
How often should I replace them?
Generally, running shoes lose their primary cushioning properties between 450km and 600km, depending on your weight, gait, and running surface.
Are they waterproof?
No, the jacquard mesh is designed for maximum breathability and will allow water to pass through if you step in a puddle.
What is the weight of the shoe?
The shoe weighs approximately 265g, making it a balanced option for daily training.
Troubleshooting
Upper mesh feels tight across the top of the foot
Try a 'window lacing' technique to reduce pressure on the midfoot while keeping the heel secure.
Slipping in the heel area
Use the extra eyelet at the top of the lacing system to create a 'runner's loop' or heel lock knot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gel-Nimbus 27 trainers perform optimally and last throughout their mileage lifespan, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, perform a few shorter runs (3-5km) to allow the foam to adapt to your unique stride.
- Sizing: These shoes feature a snug, glove-like fit; ensure your socks are the weight you intend to race in before confirming your fit.
- Cleaning: Do not machine wash. Use a soft brush to remove dried mud and a damp cloth with mild soap for the mesh. Air dry away from direct heat sources to preserve the foam density.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving shoes in extreme heat (such as a parked car), as this can compromise the integrity of the midsole foam.
