FAQs

Is the Gel-Nimbus 27 suitable for flat feet?

The Gel-Nimbus 27 is a neutral shoe. If you have mild flat feet but do not require heavy medical-grade stability, it can work, but it is best suited for neutral runners or those with underpronation.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

While excellent for walking and treadmill running, the high-stack, cushioned midsole may feel less stable during lateral movements or heavy lifting.

Does the shoe run true to size?

The Gel-Nimbus 27 generally fits true to size. If you prefer extra room in the toe box for long runs, some runners prefer to size up by a half size.

How often should I replace them?

It is recommended to replace your shoes every 400-500 miles to ensure the foam maintains its intended cushioning and protective properties.

Is the upper waterproof?

No, the engineered jacquard mesh is designed for maximum breathability and will allow water to pass through if running in heavy rain.

What is the primary difference from the Cumulus series?

The Nimbus series focuses on maximum cushioning and a plusher ride, whereas the Cumulus is generally lighter and slightly firmer for a more versatile feel.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure on the top of the foot

Loosen the laces across the midfoot and utilize the gusseted tongue to ensure it is lying flat without folds.

Heel slipping during runs

Use the extra eyelet at the top of the lacing system to create a 'runner's knot' for a more secure heel lock.

Outsole debris accumulation

Use a soft brush or a blunt tool to remove small stones or gravel trapped in the hybrid grip channels after runs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 shoes last their intended lifespan of 400 to 500 miles, follow these care steps:

  1. Break-in: While comfortable out of the box, allow 2-3 short runs for the foam to settle and the upper to adapt to your foot shape.
  2. Lacing: Use the gusseted tongue to center the fit before tightening. Use the 'runner's loop' at the top eyelet if you experience heel slippage.
  3. Cleaning: Hand wash using mild soap and a soft brush. Never put running shoes in a washing machine or dryer, as heat can degrade the cushioning foam and adhesive.
  4. Air Drying: Always air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the mesh and foam properties.
