FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for trail running?
While the outsole is durable, these are designed primarily for paved road surfaces and lack the specific lug pattern needed for technical trails.
How long do these trainers typically last?
With standard road use, you can expect optimal cushioning and performance for approximately 300 to 500 miles.
Are these shoes compatible with custom orthotics?
Yes, the stock insole is removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if necessary.
Are they water-resistant?
No, the breathable mesh upper is designed for ventilation and will allow water to penetrate if running in rain.
How do I find my correct size?
Refer to the standard UK sizing provided; ensure you have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or hotspots during long runs
Check your lacing technique to ensure a secure but not overly tight fit, or consider adjusting the insole position.
Excessive wear on the outsole
Avoid using these trainers for trail running or on abrasive, rocky surfaces as the AHAR rubber is optimized for road use.
Wet or soggy mesh upper
Stuff the shoes with newspaper and allow them to air dry in a cool, shaded area; avoid direct heat sources like radiators.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for your ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28 trainers, rotate them with another pair of shoes to allow the foam to decompress between sessions. To clean, remove loose dirt from the outsole with a soft brush and wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap; never submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the internal adhesives and cushioning structure. Ensure the laces are adjusted to your specific foot arch for a secure fit without restricting circulation.
