What type of runner is the Gel-Nimbus 27 best suited for?
These trainers are ideal for adult male runners with a neutral gait who prioritize maximum cushioning and comfort, especially for road running and long distances.
How do I clean my ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 trainers?
Clean the upper with a damp cloth and allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.
What is the main benefit of PureGEL™ technology?
PureGEL™ technology is located in the rearfoot to provide enhanced shock absorption, reducing impact on your joints during each stride.

Can I return the shoes if the size isn't right?
It is strongly advised to try footwear on before returning, as box or label sizes may differ from UK sizes. Please check the retailer's specific return policy.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have tried the shoes on with your usual running socks. If discomfort persists, consider if you need a different size or width, referencing the recommendation to try on before purchase.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The cushioning materials can compress with extended use. If you've logged significant mileage, consider replacing the shoes to regain optimal shock absorption.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the outsole is designed for traction, performance on very wet or icy surfaces may be reduced. Use caution in such conditions.
