FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for flat feet?
The Gel-Nimbus 25 offers a stable platform that works well for many runners, though users with specific arch needs should consider if their custom orthotics fit the footbed.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or putting them in a washing machine.
Are these true to size?
The Gel-Nimbus 25 generally follows standard athletic sizing; however, since these are leather, they may feel snug at first before conforming to the shape of your foot.
Can I use these for trail running?
These are optimized for road running. While they can handle light gravel paths, they lack the aggressive lugs necessary for technical trail terrain.
What is the primary benefit of the Gel technology?
The Gel technology is specifically engineered to attenuate shock during impact, protecting your joints and muscles during repeated road strikes.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of stiffness during the first run
The leather upper requires a short break-in period; try wearing them for short walks before committing to long-distance runs.
Laces coming untied during exercise
Use a double knot or a runner's loop (heel lock) lacing technique to ensure a secure fit throughout your training session.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS Gel-Nimbus 25, keep the leather clean by wiping it with a soft, damp cloth after runs in muddy or dusty conditions; avoid submerging them in water. For the best fit, ensure you are wearing the appropriate running sock thickness when measuring for your UK 8.5 size. If you use custom orthotics, the factory insoles are removable to accommodate different arch supports. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, as excessive heat can degrade the cushioning foam and the leather material.
