FAQs
What type of runner is the Gel-Nimbus 28 Tr best suited for?
These trainers are ideal for neutral runners or those with mild overpronation who prioritize comfort and cushioning for daily training and long runs.
Can I use these shoes for racing?
While they offer excellent comfort, the Gel-Nimbus 28 Tr are primarily designed for training. For racing, you might prefer a lighter, more responsive shoe.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
Refer to the Asics sizing chart, which typically correlates foot length in cm or inches to UK shoe sizes. It's also recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Gel-Nimbus 28 Tr are not waterproof. They are designed with breathable mesh for ventilation, not water resistance.
How often should I replace my Gel-Nimbus 28 Tr trainers?
It's generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300-500 miles (480-800 km), or when you notice a significant decrease in cushioning and support.
What is the main difference between the Gel-Nimbus series and other Asics trainers?
The Gel-Nimbus series is typically known for its maximum cushioning and comfort, making it a top choice for neutral runners seeking a plush ride.
Can I wear orthotics with these shoes?
Yes, the shoes usually have a removable sockliner, allowing space for most standard over-the-counter or custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or cause pressure points.
Ensure laces are loosened before putting on and then tied to a comfortable tension. Consider if the size is correct or if your foot shape requires a different model.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time.
The cushioning materials may have compressed. This is normal wear and tear; consider replacing the shoes after significant mileage.
Slipping on wet surfaces.
The outsole is designed for general training. For very slick conditions, exercise caution or consider shoes with a more aggressive tread pattern if applicable.
Upper material feels stiff.
The shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially to allow the materials to conform to your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers require no specific setup; simply lace them up and go. They are compatible with standard athletic socks. To care for your Asics Gel-Nimbus 28 Tr trainers, avoid machine washing or drying, which can damage the materials and affect the shoe's structure. Instead, clean them using a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water to remove dirt and grime. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. For stubborn stains, a specialized shoe cleaner can be used sparingly. It is recommended to rotate these trainers with another pair if possible to allow them to fully dry out between uses and extend their lifespan.
