Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28 is a premium neutral running shoe designed for adult runners seeking maximum comfort and support during high-mileage training sessions. By combining innovative FF BLAST PLUS foam with PureGEL technology, this trainer offers a plush, responsive feel that minimizes impact; however, runners who prefer a firm, ground-feel oriented shoe may find the extreme cushioning slightly too soft for high-speed interval work.

FAQs
Is the Gel-Nimbus 28 suitable for wide feet?
The technical mesh upper is designed to be highly flexible and accommodating to various foot shapes, though it is standard width.
Can I replace the insole with custom orthotics?
Yes, the OrthoLite X-55 insole is removable and can be replaced with custom medical orthotics.
How many kilometers should these shoes last?
Generally, these shoes remain effective for 500 to 800 kilometers depending on your running style and surface conditions.
Is this shoe designed for overpronation?
The Gel-Nimbus 28 is classified as a neutral trainer and is intended for runners who do not require significant arch support for overpronation.
How does PureGEL differ from standard GEL?
PureGEL is lighter and provides softer shock absorption, integrated specifically to improve the transition feel compared to older, denser GEL iterations.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the foam cushioning and structural integrity of the shoe. Use only hand-cleaning methods.
Troubleshooting
Upper mesh feeling loose or tight
Adjust your lacing pattern using the top eyelet to customize the lockdown and support around the ankle.
Inner moisture buildup during runs
Ensure you are using moisture-wicking synthetic socks rather than cotton, which traps perspiration.
Early signs of outsole wear
Check your running gait to ensure you are not dragging your feet, and rotate with a second pair to allow the foam to fully decompress between uses.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for your ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure the midfoot feels secure but not constricted; the mesh upper is designed to adapt to your foot shape over the first few runs.
- Surface Compatibility: Designed primarily for road running, treadmills, and light gravel paths.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after use. If the shoes become muddy, hand-wash them using a mild detergent and cold water. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources or radiators, which can degrade the foam and glue structures.
