Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 is a premium neutral running shoe designed for adult runners who prioritize a balance of plush cushioning and energy return. It is an ideal choice for both daily training sessions and high-mileage distance running, providing reliable support for various foot strikes. While its sophisticated foam technology offers exceptional comfort, runners should note that it is built specifically as a performance trainer rather than a lightweight racing flat, making it slightly heavier than dedicated speed-focused alternatives.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Gel-Nimbus 27 is categorized as a neutral trainer. While it provides excellent cushion, individuals with severe overpronation might require more stability-focused support.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
They are designed primarily for running. While comfortable for general movement, they are not optimized for heavy lateral-movement gym activities.
How long should the cushioning last?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and body weight.
Are these machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and foam properties. Always clean by hand using a damp cloth.
Do I need to break them in?
The FF Blast+ Eco foam is generally comfortable out of the box, but a few short walks or light runs are recommended to allow the upper to adapt to your foot shape.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on the top of the foot
Try adjusting the lacing technique, such as using a 'window' lacing method to relieve pressure on the high-contact areas.
Insole slipping during runs
Ensure the insole is properly seated in the heel cup; if it persists, consider replacing it with an aftermarket orthotic if needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27, it is recommended to wear them with moisture-wicking running socks to prevent blisters and manage heat. For sizing, these are true-to-fit for most adult runners, though checking the specific UK size is essential.
Care instructions include:
- Air Dry: If the shoes get wet, remove the insoles and let them air dry in a cool, shaded place. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the foam.
- Clean Exterior: Use a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to remove dirt from the upper. Do not machine wash.
- Rotation: To extend the life of the cushioning material, allow at least 24 hours between runs for the midsole foam to decompress fully.
