FF BLAST™ PLUS + PureGEL™ Cushioning
• The midsole retains ASICS' FF BLAST™ PLUS foam, offering soft, responsive cushioning for a smooth, effortless stride.
• PureGEL™ in the heel provides gentle shock absorption and a smoother heel-to-toe transition on impact.
Weight-Optimized Construction
• Overall weight reduced by more than 20 g vs previous generation, thanks to a refined outsole, a lighter heel design, and updated upper materials — giving a less bulky feel without compromising cushioning.
HYBRID ASICSGRIP™ Outsole
• Updated outsole uses a refined HYBRID ASICSGRIP™ formulation that balances durable traction and smooth contact for road surfaces, helping maintain grip while improving overall ride smoothness.
Engineered Knit Upper & Improved Fit
• The new engineered knit upper replaces earlier mesh constructions to deliver enhanced breathability, lighter feel, and a more adaptive, sock-like fit.
• A redesigned heel and updated tongue-loop make slipping in easier and contribute to the shoe's refined silhouette.
High Cushion & Smooth Ride Geometry
• With generous stack height (up to ~43.5 mm in men's sizes) and neutral support, the Nimbus 28 continues to excel as a daily trainer for long runs, recovery days, and neutral runners looking for comfort and shock absorption.
Versatile Use — Long Runs, Recovery, Everyday Miles
• The combination of soft cushioning, stable ride, and breathable comfort makes the Nimbus 28 ideal for distance runs, easy/recovery runs, treadmill sessions or everyday wear — a dependable all-rounder for neutral runners.
