FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Asics Gel-Nimbus 10.1 are designed with retro aesthetics and advanced cushioning for everyday comfort and light activities. While they offer good support, they are not specialized running shoes and may not provide the necessary features for high-impact running.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Gently wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner sparingly and follow up with a clean, damp cloth. Allow to air dry away from heat.
What is the TRUSSTIC™ system?
The TRUSSTIC™ system is a component in the midsole that provides stability and torsional rigidity. It helps to control pronation and maintain the structural integrity of the shoe, offering a more secure feel.
Can I wear these trainers with socks?
Yes, these trainers are designed to be worn with socks for comfort and hygiene. Choose socks appropriate for the weather and activity.
What is the main difference between this and modern running shoes?
The Gel-Nimbus 10.1 focuses on retro design and general comfort cushioning. Modern running shoes often feature more advanced, specialized foams, specific stability or motion control features tailored for different running gaits, and lighter, more breathable uppers designed for high performance.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not tight, with no heel slippage.
Is this shoe waterproof?
The leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, but these trainers are not fully waterproof. They are best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound during walking
This can sometimes occur due to moisture between layers or friction. Try sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or ensure the shoes are completely dry.
Discomfort or pressure points
Ensure you have the correct size. If the issue persists, wear the shoes for shorter periods initially to allow them to break in. Check if the lacing is too tight or uneven.
Leather appearing dry or cracked
Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for footwear to moisturize the leather. Ensure you are not exposing the shoes to excessive heat or dryness.
Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time
The cushioning may naturally degrade after extensive use. Consider replacing the insoles for a potential boost in comfort, or evaluate if the shoes have reached the end of their typical lifespan for optimal performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and fit.
Compatibility:
The Gel-Nimbus 10.1 is designed for general use and is compatible with various casual outfits. It is not specifically designed for competitive sports, so its compatibility with high-performance athletic needs may be limited.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For stubborn stains on the leather, a dedicated leather cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by a clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Clean with mild soap and water using a soft brush or cloth. Ensure all soap residue is removed.
- Drying: Air dry the trainers away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Maintenance: Regularly check the outsole for wear and tear. Consider using a leather protector spray to help maintain the material's condition and water resistance.
