Full details

While they offer superior plushness, users should note that the emphasis on softness means they may not provide the same aggressive energy return as dedicated racing speed shoes.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Gel-Nimbus 27 offers neutral cushioning, which provides great support for a variety of foot shapes, though runners with severe overpronation might require custom insoles.
How do I know if the size 9.5 UK is right for me?
You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during exercise.
Can I use these for trail running?
These are primarily road trainers. While they can handle light gravel paths, they lack the aggressive lugs necessary for technical trail terrain.
What makes the materials sustainable?
The upper is made with over 75% recycled content, and the sockliner uses solution dyeing to save water and reduce carbon output.
How long should the cushioning last?
Generally, running shoes maintain their optimal cushioning integrity for 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping or instability
Check your lacing technique; consider using the heel-lock eyelet to ensure a secure fit around the ankle.
Discomfort or hotspots during long runs
Ensure your socks are moisture-wicking and not too thick, as the engineered mesh is designed to be breathable.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 trainers, keep the following care instructions in mind:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the jacquard mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid putting them in the washing machine as this can compromise the adhesive and cushioning structure.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the foam to warp or stiffen.
- Fit: Ensure you are wearing the correct running socks for your size 9.5 UK fit to prevent friction points.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to keep the bio-based cushioning materials in optimal condition.
