Full details
The ASICS GEL-NIMBUS 27 is designed for neutral runners seeking maximum cushioning and comfort for daily training on asphalt surfaces. This Tokyo-inspired model features premium impact-absorption technology and a breathable, adaptive upper, making it an excellent choice for long-distance recovery runs. While it provides an incredibly plush ride, the high-stack cushioning may feel too soft or unstable for runners who prefer a firm, ground-connected feel during high-speed intervals.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The GEL-NIMBUS 27 is a neutral shoe. If you have severe overpronation, you may need an orthotic insert, but the wide base provides inherent stability for most runners.
Can I use these for the gym?
While they are excellent for treadmill runs and warm-ups, the high-cushion stack is not ideal for heavy lifting as it does not provide a stable, flat base.
How long do these shoes typically last?
Most running shoes of this caliber last between 300 to 500 miles depending on your gait, running surface, and body weight.
Are the materials eco-friendly?
Yes, 100% of the upper is made from recycled materials, and the cushioning uses bio-based foam components.
Is the heel drop suitable for heel strikers?
Yes, with an 8mm drop and advanced rearfoot PureGEL, these shoes are particularly well-suited for heel strikers looking for impact protection.
Troubleshooting
Tongue slides to the side during runs
Ensure the gusseted tongue wings are pulled straight before lacing up. Using the eyelet furthest up on the collar for a 'runner's loop' can further secure the tongue.
Shoes feel tight after a few miles
Feet naturally swell during exercise. Try lacing your shoes slightly looser at the start of your run or opting for thinner socks.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the life of your GEL-NIMBUS 27, ensure a proper fit by checking that there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The lace fastening should be tightened to secure your midfoot without restricting circulation.
Care Instructions:
- Clean by removing loose dirt with a soft brush.
- If shoes get wet, remove the insoles and air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.
- Avoid machine washing, which can break down the adhesives and the integrity of the foam.
