For more than a quarter of a century, the ASICS NIMBUS has delighted runners who put comfort first when they run. Its premium cushioning and high level of comfort make this neutral all-rounder the ideal shoe for your daily run, especially over longer distances.
In January, ASICS presents the latest edition of this cushioning classic. Thanks to targeted improvements, the GEL-NIMBUS 27 promises an even more comfortable running experience that lets you truly switch off. True to the motto: feel comfort, find calm. Because, as is well known, strength lies in calmness.
The 27 Solidifies the Nimbus as a Comfort Champion



With the latest version, ASICS impressively reinforces the NIMBUS’s reputation as one of the most comfortable all-rounders on the market. The midsole made from Flytefoam BLAST™ PLUS ECO, combined with PureGEL in the heel, delivers a comfortable, energetic ride. For the NIMBUS 27, the shock-absorbing Flytefoam foam has been optimized to enable even softer, more dynamic landings.
On top of that, the shoe comes with a few other exciting updates. The upper is now made from jacquard mesh, offering improved breathability and smoothly hugging your foot for an all-around comfortable fit. And thanks to the modified rib-knit collar, the NIMBUS 27 also makes getting the shoe on and off easier than ever before.
Comfortable All-Round Shoe for Long and Short Distances
Whether you're just starting out or have been running for years, the first-class cushioning and superior comfort of the GEL NIMBUS 27 will help you achieve your goals. That's why this running shoe has enjoyed such great popularity among long-distance runners for years.
Because especially over long distances, you need good cushioning to keep impact on your body as gentle as possible and still tap into energy reserves when you start reaching your personal limits. That’s exactly what the ASICS GEL NIMBUS 27 delivers.
