FAQs
Is the Gel-Nimbus 27 suitable for flat feet?
The Gel-Nimbus 27 is a neutral trainer. While it provides excellent cushion, those with severe overpronation may prefer a dedicated stability shoe.
How long should these shoes last?
Generally, running shoes maintain their structural integrity for 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and surface conditions.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While they are excellent for running, the high-cushion stack height may feel less stable for heavy weightlifting or lateral-movement exercises.
Are these shoes true to size?
ASICS generally fit true to size, but we recommend having a thumbnail's width of space at the front of the toe box for long-distance comfort.
Is the upper material durable?
The jacquard mesh is designed for high breathability. Avoid running through abrasive terrain like deep brush or sharp rocks to prevent snags.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels too warm during long runs
Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking synthetic socks rather than cotton, which traps heat.
Heel slippage
Try using the extra eyelet at the top of the lacing system to perform a 'runner's knot' for a more secure heel lock.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gel-Nimbus 27 trainers, keep the following tips in mind:
- Fit Check: Ensure the shoe is worn with performance running socks for an accurate fit. The jacquard mesh upper should feel snug but not restrictive across the midfoot.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. Hand wash with mild soap and cold water if necessary; avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as high heat can damage the foam midsole.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
- Rotation: Allow the midsole foam 24-48 hours to decompress between runs to maintain its responsiveness over time.
