Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 is a premium neutral running shoe designed for adult runners who prioritize maximum comfort and joint protection during long-distance training or recovery runs. By combining advanced PureGEL technology with FF BLAST PLUS ECO foam, it delivers a plush, responsive experience that minimizes impact; however, runners seeking a lightweight, racing-oriented profile may find the high-cushion platform slightly bulkier than minimalist alternatives.

FAQs
Is the Gel-Nimbus 27 suitable for flat feet?
The Gel-Nimbus 27 is classified as a neutral running shoe. If you require significant arch support for overpronation, you may need a custom orthotic insert.
How long should these shoes last?
Generally, high-cushion trainers like the Gel-Nimbus 27 are expected to maintain their structural integrity for 480-640 kilometers (300-400 miles).
Can I use these for trail running?
These shoes are designed primarily for road and pavement surfaces. They lack the lug depth and protective plate needed for technical trails.
Is the upper material waterproof?
No, the upper is designed for maximum breathability and is not waterproof.
Does this shoe feature a wide fit?
The standard version is a regular fit. Please check the specific product SKU if you are looking for specific width variants.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slippage in the heel
Try using the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' lacing technique to increase tension around the ankle collar.
Foam feels stiff initially
The FF BLAST PLUS ECO foam may need 30-50km to fully break in and reach its optimal flexibility and responsiveness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27, follow these best practices:
- Fit: Ensure you have a thumb-width of space in the toe box to account for foot swelling during long runs.
- Lacing: Use the eyelets to customize your lockdown, but avoid overtightening to maintain circulation.
- Cleaning: Hand wash using a soft-bristled brush, mild soap, and cold water. Remove the sockliner to dry separately. Do not machine wash or dry.
- Storage: Keep away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can degrade the midsole foam and adhesives. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
