FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the GEL cushioning and supportive design make the ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28 TR suitable for marathon training and running, offering comfort over long distances.
Can I use these trainers for trail running?
The durable rubber outsole provides good traction on various surfaces, making them suitable for light trail running. However, they are not designed for technical or extremely rugged off-road terrain.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. Your heel should feel secure without slipping.
What is the main benefit of the GEL cushioning?
The GEL cushioning technology is designed to absorb shock effectively upon impact, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on your joints during your runs.
How often should I replace my running shoes?
Typically, running shoes should be replaced every 300-500 miles (480-800 km) or when you notice significant wear on the outsole or a loss of cushioning and support.
Can these shoes be worn for walking?
Yes, the comfort and support features make them suitable for walking, although they are optimized for running performance.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing after first few wears
This is common as the shoes break in. Wear them for shorter periods initially and gradually increase duration. Ensure laces are tied appropriately, not too tight or too loose.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
While designed for good traction, extremely slick surfaces can pose a challenge. Clean the outsole regularly to remove any embedded debris that might affect grip. For very wet conditions, exercise caution.
Feet feel too warm during long runs
Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking socks. While the design is breathable, intense activity can still generate heat. Consider using the shoes in cooler weather or for shorter distances if heat is a significant concern.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size for optimal fit and performance. It is recommended to wear them for short periods initially to allow your feet to adapt to the cushioning and support.

Care:
- Cleaning: After runs, use a soft brush to remove dry dirt and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as these can damage the materials.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can deform the shoe.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain material integrity.
