Full details
The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 23 trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking a premium balance of impact absorption and comfort during long-distance efforts or daily training sessions. These trainers utilize advanced cushioning technology to provide a smooth, responsive ride for various foot strikes; however, the emphasis on plush comfort means they may feel slightly bulkier to runners who prioritize lightweight racing flats over maximal support.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Gel-Nimbus 23 is designed as a neutral trainer. If you require specific arch support, you may consider adding a custom orthotic insole.
How long do the cushions last?
Generally, running shoes maintain their optimal cushioning properties for 300 to 500 miles, depending on the runner's weight and terrain.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While excellent for running, their high cushioning profile may feel less stable during heavy lifting; they are best suited for treadmill and cardio-based gym activities.
Are these waterproof?
No, the upper is constructed from breathable mesh which is designed to allow air circulation, not to repel water.
How do I determine the right size?
It is recommended to have about a half-inch of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during a run.
Troubleshooting
Upper material showing signs of dirt buildup
Use a soft-bristled brush or damp cloth with a small amount of mild detergent to gently scrub the mesh.
Sense of instability during runs
Ensure the laces are tightened appropriately across the midfoot and check that the heel counter is securely positioned against the back of your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, ensure you select your correct size, as the Gel-Nimbus 23 is built on a performance fit; if you wear orthotics, ensure the factory sockliner is removable to maintain proper volume. For care, avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the specialized adhesives and cushion properties. Instead, clean the trainers by gently wiping the upper with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. If the shoes become soaked, remove the insoles and stuff the interior with newspaper to absorb moisture in a well-ventilated, shaded area away from direct heat sources.
