Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or constricting.
Loosen the laces and re-tie them with a runner's knot. Ensure you have selected the correct size. The engineered mesh upper is designed to offer a snug fit, but it should not cause discomfort.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time.
Cushioning technology can degrade with extensive use. If performance feels diminished after significant mileage, it may be time to consider replacing the shoes.
Traction seems poor on wet surfaces.
While the ASICSGRIP outsole provides good traction, extreme wet conditions can still reduce grip. Ensure the outsole is clean from mud or debris that could affect performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you select the correct UK size for a comfortable fit.
Compatibility:
These trainers are designed for road running and general fitness activities. While the hybrid outsole offers some versatility, they are not intended for highly technical trail running.
Care:
- Cleaning: Clean the shoes regularly using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners. For the interior, use a soft brush and cold water.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Washing Machine: It is generally not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can degrade the adhesives and cushioning materials. Hand washing is the preferred method.
