FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for walking or only running?

While the Gel-Nimbus 28 is optimized for running, its high level of cushioning makes them exceptionally comfortable for walking as well.

How often should I replace my Gel-Nimbus 28 trainers?

Generally, running trainers should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your weight, running surface, and individual gait.

Do these shoes provide stability for overpronation?

The Gel-Nimbus series is primarily designed as a neutral cushioning shoe. If you have severe overpronation, you may require a shoe with additional stability features.

Can I remove the insoles to use custom orthotics?

Yes, the OrthoLite X-55 sockliner is removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotic insoles.

Are they true to size?

Most users find they fit true to size, but since foot size can vary between brands, it is recommended to measure your feet while wearing your preferred running socks.

Troubleshooting

Foot discomfort or pressure points during long runs

Try adjusting your lacing technique to a 'runner's loop' or heel-lock lacing to secure the foot better and prevent sliding.

Excessive moisture accumulation inside the shoe

Ensure the OrthoLite sockliner is correctly positioned and not folded; replace the sockliner if it has lost its moisture-wicking properties.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper care for your Gel-Nimbus 28 trainers ensures longevity.

  1. Fit: Ensure you have a thumbs-width of space in the toe box to accommodate natural foot splay.
  2. Cleaning: Hand wash using a mild detergent and cool water. Do not submerge the shoes in a washing machine, as this can degrade the specialized cushioning foams and adhesives.
  3. Drying: Air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the knit upper to shrink or the foam to warp.
  4. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place. If damp after a run, remove the sockliner and stuff with newspaper to draw out excess moisture.
