What’s New in the Nimbus 28?
Updated Upper: Engineered Knit for Adaptive Comfort
The Nimbus 28 introduces a redesigned engineered knit upper that offers a more adaptive, breathable fit. The new material provides a softer wrap through the midfoot and forefoot, reducing hotspots and increasing overall step-in comfort. It’s plush where you want it and secure where you need it.
Midsole + Outsole: Familiar Feel, Less Weight
Fans of the Nimbus 27 will feel right at home—the underfoot experience remains consistent, offering the same luxuriously cushioned ride the Nimbus is known for. ASICS maintains its signature combination of soft, bouncy cushioning and reliable shock absorption, making this shoe a go-to for easy miles, long runs, and recovery days.
Even better? This update trims weight. The Nimbus 28 is approximately one ounce lighter, helping the shoe feel smoother and more effortless stride after stride.
