Full details
The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 trainers are engineered for neutral runners seeking a premium, high-cushion experience that prioritizes both comfort and environmental responsibility. Designed for daily training, these shoes deliver exceptionally soft landings through advanced gel technology and bio-based foam; however, their specialized focus on maximalist cushioning may feel too soft for runners who prefer a more ground-connected, firm racing feel.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Gel-Nimbus 27 is a neutral trainer. Those with severe overpronation may require additional support, but many find the cushioning profile works well with aftermarket orthotics.
How do I know if the size 10.5 UK is correct?
You should have approximately a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot expansion during running.
Can I use these for the gym?
While excellent for walking or treadmill warm-ups, the high-cushion platform is less stable for heavy weightlifting where a flat, hard sole is preferred.
What is the drop of the Gel-Nimbus 27?
The shoe maintains a traditional drop conducive to heel strikers and midfoot strikers alike, facilitating a smooth transition.
How often should I replace them?
Generally, high-cushion running shoes should be replaced every 400 to 500 miles, depending on the running surface and your weight.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping at the heel
Try the 'runner's loop' or heel-lock lacing technique to increase security at the collar.
Upper material trapping moisture
Ensure the laces are loosened during storage to allow for proper airflow and drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are ready for immediate use, though a short break-in period of 15-20 miles is recommended to allow the foam to settle to your specific gait. To ensure the longevity of the cushioning system, avoid exposing the shoes to extreme heat or prolonged direct sunlight, which can prematurely degrade the midsole materials. To clean, remove loose debris with a soft brush and wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, as the high temperatures can damage the adhesive and structural integrity of the shoe.
