Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 is a premium performance trainer designed for adult runners who prioritize a balance of plush comfort and responsive energy return during long-distance training or daily runs. Featuring advanced FF Blast+ Eco foam technology, these shoes provide a smooth ride that accommodates various gait patterns; however, runners seeking an ultra-lightweight racing flat may find the focus on cushioning creates a bulkier profile than minimalist alternatives.

FAQs
Is the Gel-Nimbus 27 suitable for trail running?
These shoes are designed primarily for road and concrete surfaces. While they can handle light paths, they lack the aggressive lugs needed for technical trails.
How long should these trainers last?
Typically, you can expect 300 to 500 miles of use, depending on your running style, weight, and the surfaces you frequent.
Can I use custom insoles with this shoe?
Yes, the provided sock liner is removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if preferred.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, the mesh upper is designed for breathability rather than water resistance.
What is the primary difference between the Nimbus and Cumulus series?
The Nimbus series typically features higher stack height and maximum cushioning, whereas the Cumulus series provides a slightly lower profile with a focus on a more 'connected' ride.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after long runs
Feet naturally swell during exercise; consider loosening the laces during your run or ensuring you have a thumb's width of space at the toe.
Visible dirt on mesh upper
Use a soft-bristled brush and mild soap with lukewarm water to gently wipe the area; do not submerge the shoes.
Slippage in the heel area
Try using the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' lacing technique to secure the ankle collar more firmly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, verify your sizing by measuring your feet at the end of the day when they are at their largest. These trainers are compatible with standard running orthotics if extra arch support is required. To maintain the life of your Gel-Nimbus 27, remove debris from the outsole after each run and allow the shoes to air dry naturally if they become wet. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can compromise the integrity of the foam cushioning and mesh upper. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
