Full details
The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28 trainers are designed for adult female runners and fitness enthusiasts who prioritize maximum cushioning and comfort during long-distance or daily training sessions. These trainers provide a significant boost in energy return and shock absorption; however, runners seeking a ultra-minimalist or racing-flat feel may find the highly cushioned profile too bulky for high-speed interval work.

FAQs
Are these shoes good for wide feet?
The engineered mesh provides a flexible fit, but it is recommended to check the specific width guide for your size to ensure optimal comfort.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
Yes, they are suitable for general gym training and treadmill use, though they are specifically optimized for running.
How long do the soles last?
The AHAR rubber outsole is designed for durability, generally lasting 300-500 miles depending on running surface and gait.
Are these waterproof?
No, the engineered mesh upper is designed for maximum breathability and is not water-resistant.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
Measure your feet at the end of the day when they are at their largest, ensuring about a thumb's width of space at the front.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after a long run
Feet naturally swell during exercise; consider loosening the laces slightly mid-run to accommodate.
Breathability seems reduced
Check the mesh upper for dirt or dust buildup; clean with a soft-bristled brush to clear the pores.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ensure you verify your size using the UK adult sizing system for the best fit. Since these trainers use an engineered mesh, it is important to keep them clean to maintain breathability. To clean the shoes, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid putting them in the washing machine or dryer, as high heat can damage the foam and structural adhesives. Allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Regularly inspect the AHAR outsole for debris and ensure the laces are properly adjusted for a secure, supportive fit.
