Full details

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Gel-Nimbus 28 offers a neutral cushioning profile suitable for many foot types, though those needing severe pronation control may want to consider custom orthotics.
How long should these trainers last?
Typically, these trainers perform best for 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style, body weight, and terrain.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While excellent for running and cardio, the high-stack cushioning may feel unstable for heavy weightlifting where a firm base is required.
Is the mesh upper water-resistant?
No, the engineered mesh is designed for maximum airflow and breathability and is not intended for wet or muddy conditions.
Do I need to break these in?
Most runners find them comfortable immediately, but a few short walks or light runs are recommended to allow the upper to adapt to your foot shape.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot
Try a 'window lacing' technique to reduce tension on the specific area where the pressure occurs.
Outsole losing traction prematurely
Ensure you are using the shoes primarily on road surfaces and clear any embedded stones from the grooves in the rubber.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28 trainers, start by selecting your correct size; the shoe is designed to provide a secure lockdown with standard running socks. When cleaning, avoid machine washing or drying, as these processes can degrade the specialized foam and adhesives. Instead, hand wash with a mild detergent and cool water, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators. Periodically check the AHAR outsole for debris and store the shoes in a cool, dry place to prevent material breakdown.
