FAQs
Is this shoe suitable for flat feet?
The Gel-Nimbus 27 provides neutral support and ample cushioning, which is often suitable for runners with various arch types, though you may add custom orthotics if preferred.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity of the mesh and the cushioning foam. Always clean by hand.
How long will the cushioning last?
Typically, you can expect optimal performance for 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and surface conditions.
Is the material waterproof?
The engineered jacquard mesh is designed for breathability, not water resistance. It will absorb water in wet conditions.
Are these shoes vegan?
The shoe utilizes recycled materials and bio-based foams, but please check the specific product box or manufacturer site for the most up-to-date vegan compliance certification.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after a few miles
Feet naturally swell during exercise. Try loosening the laces in the midfoot area or adjust the lockdown to ensure you aren't over-tightening.
Slipping at the heel
Use the extra eyelet at the top of the shoe to perform a runner's loop (heel lock) to secure the ankle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 shoes last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Breaking In: Wear the shoes for short, 30-minute walks before transitioning into long-distance runs to allow the midsole to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. If muddy, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Do not submerge in water or use a washing machine as this can degrade the foam and adhesive.
- Drying: Air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can cause the material to warp or crack.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from moisture to maintain the integrity of the foam components.
