FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for marathon running?

Yes, the advanced GEL cushioning is designed for long-distance comfort and shock absorption, making them suitable for marathon running.

How do I know if I have the right size UK 11.5?

Your toes should have about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and there should be no pinching or excessive tightness across the width of your foot.

Can I wear these for cross-training in the gym?

Yes, these trainers are suitable for general gym training due to their supportive fit and stable outsole. However, for highly specialized activities like heavy weightlifting, dedicated cross-training shoes might offer more specific support.

How often should I replace my Gel-Nimbus 28 TR trainers?

For optimal performance and cushioning, it is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300-500 miles, or when you notice a significant decrease in cushioning or support.

Are the Aurora Green and Black colours available in other sizes?

This specific colourway is available in various sizes. Please check the product listing or available options for other size availability.

What is the primary benefit of the GEL technology?

The primary benefit of GEL technology is its exceptional shock-absorbing capability, which helps to reduce impact on the body during high-impact activities like running.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the correct size is being worn. Adjust lacing to find a more comfortable, secure fit. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter runs before longer distances.

Reduced cushioning effect over time

While GEL cushioning is durable, its effectiveness can decrease with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes after approximately 300-500 miles of running, or when cushioning feels significantly diminished.

Slipping on wet surfaces

While the rubber outsole provides good traction, extreme wet conditions can reduce grip. Exercise caution and reduce speed on very slick surfaces.

Foot odour

Ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing. Remove insoles and air dry shoes after use. Consider using anti-odour sprays or powders designed for athletic footwear.
