ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 Men's Running Shoes

Experience ultimate cloudlike cushioning in the new Gel-Nimbus 27. Lightweight FF Blast Plus Eco cushioning combines with PureGEL technology for comfort you have to feel, to believe.

Engineered Mesh Upper

To ensure a comfortable fit and deliver a breathable running experience, the Gel-Nimbus 27 features a lightweight, airy engineered mesh upper. The materials comfortably and securely contain your feet to keep you confident across road running adventures and ensure you remain comfortable when things get tough or heat up. The soft, stretchy materials ensure a premium fit by snugly wrapping around your feet, making you feel secure. They also promote optimal breathability, allowing fresh, cool air to circulate through the shoes to prevent overheating and maintain comfort during intense activities. Additionally, these materials have moisture-wicking properties that minimise sweat and moisture build-up, particularly during more vigorous running sessions. The stretchy construction alongside a nearly seamless structure helps to reduce irritation or chafing, therefore ensuring a distraction-free enjoyable ride. A soft stretchy knit tongue works alongside a rib knit collar and plush collar lining for super soft, easy step-in comfort. The secure laces provide next-level comfort and a secure, locked-in fit to prevent in-shoe slipping.

FF Blast Plus Eco Midsole

Featuring ASICS' newest iteration of FF BLAST cushioning, the 27th generation of the Gel-Nimbus has a lightweight FF Blast Plus Eco midsole. The cloudlike cushioning is lightweight with outstanding rebound properties, to keep feet floaty and energetic, for lively strides when pounding the pavement. The soft compound allows feet to take you into the next stride to ensure smooth propulsion and steady strides. This midsole is stacked higher than ever for maximum comfort that you can only believe if you feel it. Additionally, the shoes utilise PureGEL technology which has been strategically placed under the heel, for an even softer, more comfortable landing. PureGEL has shock-absorbing properties, reducing stress and impact placed upon your joints, and helping to prevent the risks of injury or discomfort when running. Atop this, an OrthoLite X-55 sockliner provides step-in comfort and moisture-management.

Hybrid ASICSGRIP Outsole

Utilising a combined AHARPLUS and ASICSGRIP outsole, the Gel-Nimbus 27 provides you with a soft feel and excellent traction on a range of surfaces. Providing feet with unwavering grip, the AHARPLUS compound is super resistant to abrasion, and three times more resistant than its predecessor, AHAR. The high abrasion outsole offers a strong grip, protecting itself from damage and users from slipping. By bonding with the ground, it ensures you stay in complete control. The ASICSGRIP compound is super durable and keeps you stable across long and short distances, for confidence in your choice of footwear. Grooves adorn the outsole to provide added traction underfoot and allow for natural foot flexion for easy, unhindered paces, and work with the rubber outsole to provide an abundance of underfoot traction.

This shoe is designed with comfort in mind, and ASICS have spent endless hours testing it at their Institute of Sport Science (ISS) in Japan.
