FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the GEL technology in these trainers?
The GEL technology is placed in key impact zones to absorb shock, providing a softer landing and helping to reduce fatigue during your runs.
Are these trainers suitable for trail running?
No, the ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28 trainers are primarily designed for road running and hard surfaces. Their outsole and cushioning are optimized for pavement, not the uneven terrain of trails.
How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?
Refer to ASICS' official sizing chart, which typically provides measurements in centimeters or inches that correspond to UK sizes. It's also recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can be personal.
Can I wear these shoes for walking or everyday use?
Yes, while optimized for running, the superior comfort and cushioning make them suitable for walking and casual everyday wear.
How often should I replace my Gel-Nimbus 28 trainers?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300-500 miles (480-800 km), or when you notice a significant decrease in cushioning or support.
What is the difference between Gel-Nimbus and other ASICS running series?
The Gel-Nimbus series is ASICS' flagship neutral, maximum cushioning shoe, prioritizing comfort and shock absorption for long distances. Other series may focus on stability, speed, or lighter weight.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The engineered mesh upper offers breathability but is not waterproof. They are designed for dry conditions; for wet weather, consider waterproof running shoe covers or specific waterproof models.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust lacing to find a secure but comfortable fit. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size, as sizing can vary between brands. Consider if a different thickness of sock is needed.
Reduced cushioning over time.
While the cushioning is durable, it will naturally compress with extensive mileage. Consider replacing the shoes after 300-500 miles (480-800 km) or when cushioning feels significantly reduced.
Mesh upper shows wear or tears.
Inspect for any snagging points. Avoid abrasive activities or environments that could damage the mesh. Ensure proper fit to prevent excessive stress on the upper.
Soles losing grip.
Clean the outsole to remove dirt and debris that can affect traction. If wear is significant, consider replacement as the AHARPLUS™ outsole is designed for durability but will wear down over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size for a proper fit. Some runners prefer to replace the stock sockliner with a custom orthotic, which is easily accommodated.
Compatibility:
- Foot Type: Best suited for neutral pronation or mild supination.
- Running Surface: Primarily designed for road running and hard surfaces.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to clean the mesh upper and midsole. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing, which can damage the materials.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can warp the shoe.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Outsole Care: Periodically check the outsole for embedded debris and clean as needed to maintain grip.
