Product Information

Full details

The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 is a premium neutral running shoe designed for runners who prioritize maximum cushioning and long-distance comfort. Featuring advanced FF Blast Plus Eco foam and PureGEL technology, it provides a plush landing and smooth transition for daily training. While it offers superior comfort and a sustainable build, it is a high-stack trainer that may feel too soft or bulky for runners who prefer a ground-feel or high-speed racing responsiveness.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 suitable for flat feet?

The Nimbus 27 is a neutral shoe. While it provides excellent cushion, those with severe overpronation may prefer a dedicated stability shoe.

Can I use these for trail running?

The hybrid ASICSGRIP is great for light gravel and well-maintained paths, but it is not intended for technical, rocky, or muddy trails.

How many miles can I expect from these shoes?

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

Is the upper material waterproof?

No, the engineered mesh is designed for breathability, meaning it will allow water to pass through if you step in a puddle.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 weighs approximately 305g.

Troubleshooting

Feeling of heel slippage

Try the runner's loop (heel lock) lacing method using the additional top eyelet to secure the collar against your ankle.

Midsole feeling 'flat' after short use

Ensure the shoes are not being left in extreme heat and try rotating them with another pair to allow the foam to rebound.

Upper mesh feels tight across the top of the foot

Adjust the laces to a looser tension across the midfoot, or experiment with skipping the first pair of eyelets to relieve pressure.

Soft foam may compress quickly for heavier runners

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27, follow these best practices:

Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them for shorter walks or easy 3-mile runs to allow the mesh upper and foam to adapt to your specific foot shape.
Lacing: Utilize the top eyelet (heel lock lacing) if you experience any heel slippage to take full advantage of the plush collar lining.
Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after muddy runs. If the shoes get dirty, clean them with cold water and mild detergent using a damp cloth or soft brush. Do not machine wash or dry, as this can degrade the foam properties.
Storage: Avoid leaving your shoes in direct sunlight or enclosed hot environments like a car, as extreme heat can cause the midsole foam to warp or lose its cushioning rebound characteristics.
Rotation: If you run daily, rotating between two pairs of shoes allows the foam to fully decompress, significantly extending the life of the midsole.
