What’s New in the GEL-NIMBUS® Shoe

The GEL-NIMBUS^® 28 shoe is here with more comfort to move body and mind. Here’s what to expect in the latest iteration of our cloudlike daily trainer.

Who is the GEL-NIMBUS^® shoe for?

Since 1999, runners have turned to the GEL-NIMBUS^® series for cloudlike cushioning and legendary comfort. Consider trying the GEL-NIMBUS^® 28 shoe if you want:

• A soft, high-cushion feel underfoot
• Neutral or underpronation support
• A plush daily trainer suitable for long-distance or recovery runs
• A style that's been found to promote good foot health by the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA)

What’s familiar

Fans of the GEL-NIMBUS^® series will recognize these key features in the GEL-NIMBUS^® 28 shoe:

• PureGEL™ technology in the heel for soft landings, impact absorption, and smooth transitions
• FF BLAST™ PLUS cushioning for a lightweight feel and cloudlike comfort

What’s new

As always, we implemented our philosophy of kaizen (“continuous improvement”) to make the GEL-NIMBUS^® 28 shoe more comfortable than ever.

First, the GEL-NIMBUS^® 28 shoe is approximately 20g lighter than the GEL-NIMBUS^® 27 shoe. A few different material and design updates make this possible, including the

redesigned HYBRID ASICSGRIP™ outsole, which provides durable grip and a lighter feel.

Runners upgrading from the GEL-NIMBUS^® 27 shoe will also notice an updated engineered knit upper, which delivers more breathability for all-around comfort, and a new tongue loop that makes the shoe easier to slip on.

Lastly, the GEL-NIMBUS^® 28 shoe features a streamlined heel and pull-tab design that helps reduce overall weight.
