FAQs
What type of runner is the ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 best suited for?
The Gel-Nimbus 27 is ideal for runners seeking maximum cushioning and comfort for daily training, long runs, and recovery sessions. It is particularly beneficial for neutral runners or those who use orthotics.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the enhanced cushioning and comfort make the Gel-Nimbus 27 a great option for marathon training and race day, providing protection over long distances.
What is the main difference between the Gel-Nimbus 27 and previous models?
The Gel-Nimbus 27 features an updated FLYTEFOAM BLAST PLUS ECO midsole for a softer, more sustainable cushioning experience, alongside refined upper construction for improved comfort and fit.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is a thumbnail's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The shoe should feel snug around the heel and midfoot without being constrictive, and comfortable in the toe box.
Can I use these shoes for gym workouts?
While they offer good cushioning, the Gel-Nimbus 27 is optimized for running. For gym workouts, especially those involving lateral movements or heavy lifting, a shoe with more stability and a flatter sole might be more appropriate.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Specific warranty information can vary by retailer. Please check the warranty details provided by the point of purchase or the official ASICS website for the most accurate information.
How often should I replace my Gel-Nimbus 27 trainers?
For optimal performance and injury prevention, it is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300-500 miles (or 500-800 kilometers), depending on your running style, weight, and the surfaces you run on.
Troubleshooting
Unusual squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and midsole. Try removing the insole, checking for debris, and reinserting it firmly. Ensure the shoe is completely dry.
Fit feels too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing system to achieve a personalized fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks. If the issue persists, consider trying a different size or width if available.
Reduced cushioning over time
While the cushioning is designed for durability, it will naturally compress with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are being used for their intended purpose (running) and consider replacing them after a significant mileage range (typically 300-500 miles).

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size for a comfortable fit. The shoe is designed for standard running use and does not require any special setup procedures.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult runners and are suitable for a wide range of foot shapes due to the adaptive engineered knit upper. They are compatible with most standard athletic socks.
Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Gel-Nimbus 27 trainers:
- Cleaning: After each use, brush off any loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, which can cause shrinkage or material degradation.
- Storage: Store trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. This helps preserve the integrity of the cushioning and upper materials.
