ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28 Paris Running Shoes
Experience a run like never before in the Gel-Nimbus 28 Paris. Lighter and softer, these shoes will feel like you are running on clouds. Inspired by the city of Paris, this shoe is designed with Parisian colours and the city's skyline influences on the heel. Below the iconic architectural structures, the shoe features the coordinates that highlight where the city's annual marathon is run.
Engineered Knit Upper
Ensuring a comfortable fit while remaining highly breathable, the Gel-Nimbus 28 features a lightweight, engineered knit upper. The materials comfortably and securely contain your feet, keeping you confident across road running adventures and ensuring you remain comfortable when things get tough or heat up. The fabric encourages cool air to circulate while removing unwanted warm air, helping to regulate temperature and create a perfect climate where feet can thrive. The plush collar lining is soft for easy step-in comfort from the first step to the last, while the stretch tongue sits smoothly against the foot to prevent irritation caused by rubbing. Heel pull tabs assist in putting the shoes on and off. A standard lacing system locks the midfoot to prevent excessive movement and ensure a secure fit. Completing the uppers and showing your support for the Paris Marathon, the Gel-Nimbus 28 Paris features a stylish graphic that showcases iconic architectural Parisian structures, along with coordinates that highlight where the marathon is run. The shoes also have reflective details to keep you safe on low-light runs.
FF Blast Plus Midsole
The Gel-Nimbus 28 features an FF Blast Plus midsole for responsive underfoot cushioning. It attenuates shock as you strike down, protecting your joints and muscles, and converts this into a rebound, propelling you forward. This means you can run further and faster, using less energy. Additionally, the shoes utilise PureGEL technology, strategically placed under the heel, for an even softer, more comfortable landing. PureGEL has shock-absorbing properties, reducing stress and impact placed on your joints, and helping to prevent the risks of injury or discomfort when running. Underfoot, the OrthoLite X-55, a premium sockliner, provides outstanding cushioning performance and moisture-management for a cool, dry environment.
Hybrid ASICSGRIP Outsole
The Gel-Nimbus 28 utilises a combined AHARPLUS and ASICSGRIP outsole, which ensures a soft underfoot feel and excellent traction across various surfaces. The AHARPLUS compound provides unwavering grip and is highly resistant to abrasion, offering three times the durability of the previous AHAR material. This high-abrasion outsole protects itself from damage and prevents you from slipping, ensuring complete control through a strong bond with the ground. Complementing this is the ASICSGRIP compound, which is exceptionally durable and maintains stability over both long and short distances, boosting confidence. Grooves are incorporated into the outsole design to maximise underfoot traction and allow for natural foot flexion, enabling easy, unhindered strides.
