ASICS GEL-Nimbus 28 D Mens Shoes

Elevate your daily training experience with the ASICS GEL-Nimbus 28 D Men’s Shoes, designed to provide you with a cloud-like sensation and unmatched comfort during your most demanding runs. Whether you are tackling a long-distance marathon prep or enjoying a steady recovery session, this latest iteration prioritises your foot's well-being by combining a roughly 25g weight reduction with a high-stack, plush design. You will immediately notice how the engineered knit upper wraps your foot in a soft, breathable embrace, offering a secure fit that moves naturally with your stride while minimising the need for heavy overlays. As you strike the pavement, the advanced FF BLAST PLUS cushioning works in tandem with PureGEL technology to absorb impact, delivering a landing that is approximately 65% softer than traditional GEL materials. From the moisture-wicking properties of the OrthoLite X-55 sockliner to the reliable traction of the HYBRID ASICSGRIP outsole, every element is precision-engineered to help you move with confidence, even in low-light conditions, thanks to integrated reflective details.

What’s New?

Weight Reduction: At 281g (size 9 USM), this version is approximately 25g lighter than the previous model, helping you maintain your pace with less effort.
Updated Engineered Knit Upper: Delivers more ventilation to keep your feet cooler during high-mileage training.
PureGEL Technology: This updated version of ASICS' signature cushioning is strategically placed in the heel to provide superior shock absorption and smoother transitions.

The ASICS GEL-Nimbus 28 D Men’s Shoes also feature:

8mm Drop: Provides a traditional stance and promotes a smooth, natural transition through each stride.
FF BLAST PLUS Cushioning: Experience a responsive and energised ride with this specialised midsole foam that creates a softer feel underfoot without adding unnecessary bulk.
HYBRID ASICSGRIP Outsole: By merging ASICSGRIP and AHARPLUS materials, this outsole offers you advanced durability and exceptional grip across various road surfaces.
OrthoLite X-55 Sockliner: This premium internal layer improves step-in comfort and features advanced moisture management to keep your feet cool and dry.
Reflective Details: Stay seen and safe during your early morning or evening workouts with enhanced visibility elements integrated into the shoe's design.
Recommended by the Australian Physiotherapy Association and Sports Medicine Australia: Highlighting their trusted status among healthcare experts for supporting foot health and performance.

The shoe is equipped with a HYBRID ASICSGRIP outsole, which combines ASICSGRIP rubber and AHARPLUS materials. This provides you with advanced grip for various terrains and enhanced durability for high-wear areas.

ASICS has prioritised sustainability in this design. At least 75% of the primary engineered knit upper is made from recycled content. Additionally, the OrthoLite X-55 sockliner is produced using a solution dyeing process that reduces water usage by 33% and carbon emissions by 45%.

The shoe features an 8mm heel drop. This specific offset is designed to provide a balanced platform that promotes a smooth and natural transition from your heel strike to your toe-off.
