Product Information

Full details

The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28 trainers are designed for neutral runners who prioritize supreme comfort and shock absorption during long-distance training on asphalt surfaces. Featuring advanced FF BLAST PLUS and PureGEL cushioning, these shoes provide a plush, responsive feel that minimizes impact; however, runners seeking a minimalist or low-profile racing flat may find the 42.5 mm heel stack height to be more substantial than required for speed-focused workouts.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?

The Gel-Nimbus 28 is designed for neutral runners. If you have severe pronation issues, you may want to consult a professional to see if you require additional arch support inserts.

Can I use these for speed work?

While durable and responsive, they are optimized for comfort and distance rather than fast-paced track speed work.

How long should these shoes last?

Typically, you can expect 300 to 500 miles depending on your gait, weight, and the surfaces you run on.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the stock insoles can be removed if you prefer to use custom orthotics.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The Asics Gel-Nimbus 28 weighs approximately 281 grams.

Troubleshooting

Feeling of instability in the heel

Ensure the laces are tightened using the runner's loop (heel lock) to secure your foot within the heel counter.

Midsole foam feels stiff

The foam may be cold; keep the shoes at room temperature to allow the cushioning to maintain its intended flexibility.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for long-distance comfort
  • Lightweight construction despite the high stack height
  • Breathable upper material reduces overheating
  • Excellent shock absorption for asphalt running
  • Smooth heel-to-toe transition

Cons

  • High stack height may feel unstable for some runners
  • Not intended for technical trail or off-road use
  • Less ground feel due to the significant midsole cushioning

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28 trainers last through your training block, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  • Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for shorter walks or easy jogs before attempting full-distance runs to allow the foam to conform to your foot.
  • Cleaning: Clean the exterior by wiping with a soft, damp cloth. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as high heat can damage the foam and glue structures.
  • Drying: If the shoes get wet, remove the insoles and air dry them in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heaters.
  • Rotation: If you run frequently, rotating these with another pair of trainers allows the cushioning material to decompress fully between runs, extending the lifespan of the midsole.
