Enhanced Cushioning for Long-Distance Comfort
The standout feature of the GEL-NIMBUS™ 27 is its upgraded PureGEL™ technology, located in the heel. This innovation offers enhanced shock absorption, delivering softer landings and smoother transitions with every step. Whether training or racing, this feature ensures runners can go the distance with reduced impact.
The midsole incorporates FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO foam, a lightweight and highly responsive material. This new cushioning not only provides a spring-like boost but is also made with at least 20% bio-based materials, reflecting ASICS’ commitment to more sustainable design practices.
A Redesigned Upper for a Tailored Fit
Comfort begins with the fit, and the GEL-NIMBUS™ 27 addresses this with its newly engineered knit upper. This design adapts to the foot’s natural shape, offering a snug yet breathable fit. The seamless construction minimises friction, ensuring every run is as smooth as possible.
Lightweight Yet Durable
The GEL-NIMBUS™ 27 balances lightweight construction with durability. It weighs 305 grams for men (size US9) and 265 grams for women (size US8), making it an excellent choice for runners seeking both performance and longevity, whether for daily training or competitive marathons.
Sustainability at the Core
ASICS continues its commitment to sustainability with the GEL-NIMBUS™ 27. In addition to the bio-based FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO foam, the shoe incorporates other recycled materials across its construction. This aligns with ASICS’ broader mission to reduce its environmental impact while maintaining industry-leading performance.
Why the GEL-NIMBUS™ 27 Shines
As part of the celebrated GEL-NIMBUS™ series, this latest model builds on a legacy of exceptional comfort and reliability. The combination of PureGEL™ technology, sustainable materials, and lightweight performance makes the GEL-NIMBUS™ 27 an ideal choice for runners of all levels, from beginners tackling their first 5K to experienced marathoners aiming for a personal best.
