Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28 is a premium performance trainer engineered for adult runners seeking maximum comfort and impact protection during high-mileage training. By integrating advanced GEL technology with FF BLAST PLUS foam, these shoes provide a highly responsive and cushioned ride that helps reduce fatigue. While they excel in long-distance support, users should be aware that the high-cushion platform may feel less stable for those who require aggressive motion control or firm ground feedback.

FAQs
Is this shoe suitable for flat feet?
The Gel-Nimbus 28 is designed as a neutral trainer. Those with severe flat feet or overpronation may need to consider an orthotic insole for added support.
How long do these shoes typically last?
Most runners can expect between 300 to 500 miles, depending on running surface, weight, and individual gait.
Are these good for speed work?
While responsive, they are primarily built for distance and comfort rather than high-speed track intervals.
Can I replace the insole?
Yes, the internal sockliner is removable and can be swapped for custom orthotics.
How should I dry them if they get wet?
Remove the insole and stuff the shoes with newspaper. Air dry them in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slippage in the heel
Try the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' lacing technique to secure the ankle collar against your foot.
Upper mesh shows wear or debris buildup
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dust after every run to prevent abrasive particles from cutting into the fibers.
Outsole loses grip on wet surfaces
Ensure the tread is clear of embedded stones and debris; if the AHAR rubber is worn smooth, the shoe may have reached its expected mileage limit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: Ensure you have a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe, as feet tend to swell during runs.
- Break-in: While ready to use out of the box, walk in them for a few days to allow the foam to adapt to your stride.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. Hand wash with mild soap and cold water if necessary; do not machine wash or tumble dry as heat can degrade the cushioning components.
- Storage: Keep shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent foam compression and material breakdown.
