FAQs
Is the ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28 good for flat feet?
The Gel-Nimbus 28 is designed with neutral support. Those with severe overpronation may require additional inserts or a stability-focused model.
Can I use these for marathon running?
Yes, the cushioning and responsive foam make these an excellent choice for long-distance training and marathon events on road surfaces.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and surface conditions.
Is the upper material waterproof?
The engineered mesh is designed for breathability, not water resistance. It is best to avoid running in heavy rain to keep your feet dry.
How do I dry the shoes if they get wet?
Stuff the shoes with newspaper or paper towels to absorb moisture and let them air dry in a cool, shaded area away from direct heat sources.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping or instability
Ensure laces are tightened securely using a runner's loop if necessary, and confirm the size fits snugly.
Debris trapped in mesh upper
Gently shake the shoe upside down and use a soft bristle brush to clear dust or gravel from the fabric pores.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28, ensure you have correctly matched your size to the UK foot measurement for an optimal lockdown. The shoe is ready for immediate use out of the box with no mandatory break-in period. To clean, remove loose dirt with a dry brush, and use a cloth dampened with mild soap to wipe the mesh and rubber. Never machine wash or put these shoes in a dryer, as high heat can compromise the GEL units and the integrity of the adhesive bonding the sole to the upper.
