Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28 trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking a premium balance of maximum cushioning and reliable support for high-mileage training. These trainers excel at absorbing high-impact forces during daily road running, providing a responsive and comfortable ride; however, runners who prefer a minimal or low-profile feel underfoot may find the substantial cushioning too thick for faster, shorter speed-work sessions.

FAQs
Are the Gel-Nimbus 28 shoes waterproof?
No, these are designed with breathable mesh for airflow and are not waterproof or water-resistant.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While excellent for cardio and treadmill use, they are heavily cushioned and may not provide the stability required for heavy weightlifting.
How often should I replace these shoes?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait.
Is the insole removable?
Yes, the stock insole is removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if required.
What is the primary use case for this shoe?
They are designed primarily as a high-mileage neutral trainer for road running.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on the top of the foot
Loosen the laces significantly or re-lace the shoe using a 'window lacing' technique to reduce tension over the bridge of the foot.
Excessive heel slippage during runs
Utilize the 'heel lock' lacing method by using the extra eyelet at the collar of the shoe to create a tighter fit around the ankle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28 trainers maintain their performance, follow these guidelines:
- Fit: Ensure you have a thumb's width of space at the front of the toe box to accommodate natural foot swelling during exercise.
- Lacing: Use the top eyelet (runner's loop) if you feel heel slippage to create a more secure lock-down.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush and clean with mild soap and a damp cloth. Never put these shoes in a washing machine or dryer, as the heat can damage the gel units and adhesive bonds.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature breakdown of the midsole foam.
