Product Information

Full details

The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 10.1 trainers are designed for adult women seeking a blend of retro aesthetics and modern comfort for everyday wear and light training. Their key benefit lies in the cushioned stability provided by advanced sole technology. A potential caveat is that the retro design may not appeal to everyone. This revival of a 2008 classic features an asymmetric mesh upper for enhanced breathability and a secure fit, dual-layer EVA foam for superior cushioning, integrated GEL inserts for shock absorption, and a TRUSSTIC support system for midfoot stability.

FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

While the Gel-Nimbus 10.1 offers good cushioning, they are best suited for casual wear and light training. For marathon running, consider models specifically designed for high-performance long-distance running.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the ASICS sizing chart and measure your foot length in centimeters. It is also recommended to try them on indoors to check for comfort and fit, paying attention to width and toe room.

Can these trainers be machine washed?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning components. Hand cleaning as described in the care section is the preferred method.

What is the TRUSSTIC support system?

The TRUSSTIC support system is a component located in the midfoot area of the shoe that provides stability and prevents excessive twisting or torsion of the foot.

Are there other color options available?

This specific model listing is for the Grey variant. Other colorways may be available from different retailers or through other product listings.

What is the main difference between this and modern running shoes?

The Gel-Nimbus 10.1 is a revival of a classic design, prioritizing retro style and general comfort. Modern running shoes often feature more advanced materials, specialized cushioning systems, and designs optimized for specific running disciplines (e.g., speed, long-distance, trail).

Troubleshooting

Slightly tight fit upon first wear

The mesh upper and EVA foam are designed to adapt. Wear them for short periods indoors to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Reduced cushioning after extended use

The EVA foam may compress over time. Consider replacing the insoles with new ones for renewed cushioning.

Difficulty cleaning stubborn marks

For persistent dirt on the midsole or outsole, use a slightly firmer brush with a mild cleaning solution. Ensure to wipe away any residue thoroughly.

Laces becoming worn

Replace laces with standard trainer laces of a similar length and material to maintain the shoe's appearance and functionality.

Care:

To maintain the quality and appearance of your ASICS Gel-Nimbus 10.1 trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently clean the mesh and synthetic materials with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: Use a soft brush to remove dirt from the outsole and midsole. For tougher stains, a damp cloth should suffice.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, when not in use. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
