FAQs

What is the main advantage of the GEL-Nimbus 10.1?

The main advantage is the exceptional and enduring cushioned support provided by the combination of dual-layer EVA foam, GEL technology, and the TRUSSTIC system, ensuring comfort throughout the day.

What does 'revives a 2008 icon' mean?

It means the design is based on a popular ASICS shoe model from 2008, updated with modern comfort features and materials while retaining its original aesthetic.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

These trainers are primarily designed for comfort enthusiasts and casual wear, offering excellent cushioning for daily activities. They are not specialized for high-performance running.

How do I clean the trainers?

Wipe the upper with a damp cloth and use a soft brush or mild soap solution for the sole. Allow them to air dry naturally and avoid direct heat.

What is the purpose of the TRUSSTIC system?

The TRUSSTIC Support System helps to stabilize the midsole, providing torsional rigidity and preventing excessive twisting of the foot for improved support.

Does the shoe come in other colors?

This specific product description refers to a white colorway. Availability of other colors would depend on current ASICS offerings and retailers.

What is the benefit of the solution dyeing process for the sockliner?

The solution dyeing process used for the sockliner significantly minimizes water usage and carbon emissions compared to conventional dyeing methods, making it more environmentally friendly.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or too loose

Adjust the laces using the front lace-up fastening to achieve a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size; refer to sizing charts if unsure.

Discomfort during wear

Ensure socks are worn to prevent chafing. Break in the shoes gradually with short periods of wear. Verify the lacing is appropriate for your foot shape.

Surface dirt on mesh or leather

Gently wipe the affected areas with a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.

Reduced cushioning over time

While the dual-layer EVA foam and GEL technology are designed for durability, cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if significant wear is evident.

Care: To maintain the quality and appearance of your trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and eco-leather areas with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove dirt and debris. For tougher stains, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  3. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, preferably in a shoe bag to protect them from dust and light.
