FAQs
Is the Gel-Nimbus 27 suitable for neutral runners?
Yes, the Gel-Nimbus 27 is designed specifically for neutral runners who seek a high level of cushioning and a smooth ride.
How sustainable is this shoe?
The upper is made with at least 75% recycled content, and the manufacturing of the sockliner uses a water-saving solution dyeing process.
Can I use these for speed work?
While it can handle varied paces, this shoe is optimized for comfort and long distances rather than high-intensity speed work or racing.
How should I clean the jacquard mesh?
Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water to gently wipe the upper. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
What is the primary cushioning material?
The shoe uses PureGEL technology for shock absorption and FF BLAST PLUS ECO foam for a responsive, eco-friendly energy return.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot
Adjust the lacing system to a different configuration, such as skipping the eyelet over the affected area to relieve pressure.
Excessive moisture inside the shoe
Remove the insole after your run to allow for faster evaporation and consider using moisture-wicking synthetic socks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gel-Nimbus 27 trainers, keep them clean by removing dirt with a soft brush after running in muddy conditions. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, as this can degrade the specialized foam and mesh materials. If the interior becomes damp, remove the sockliner and air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators. Ensure the laces are tightened properly to leverage the engineered mesh for a secure lockdown before starting your activity. Check the outsole periodically for signs of significant tread wear to determine when it is time for a replacement, typically after 300 to 500 miles of use.
