ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28

The ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28 is a running shoe designed for neutral runners, offering enhanced cushioning and comfort for long training sessions. This successor model of the Gel-Nimbus series incorporates ASICS FlyteFoam Propel technology in the midsole, ensuring responsive cushioning with shape retention and durability during intense use. The GEL cushioning system in the heel and forefoot absorbs impact forces during heel strike and toe-off phases, allowing for a smooth transition. The technical mesh upper provides breathable support with strategically placed reinforcement zones, while the FluidFit construction adapts to the natural movements of the foot for a secure, glove-like fit. The shoe features a 10 mm drop, with a sole height of approximately 28 mm at the heel and 18 mm in the forefoot area. The outsole uses ASICS High Abrasion Rubber in high-wear areas for improved durability and traction on various surfaces. The Ortholite insole offers additional cushioning and moisture management, and the Guidance Line technology promotes efficient propulsion. Available in standard running shoe sizes, it weighs about 295 grams for men's size 42. The design incorporates reflective elements for better visibility in low-light conditions. This model represents a balanced approach to cushioning and responsiveness, suitable for daily training and longer runs on roads and paved paths.
