GEL-NIMBUS 29 is a cushioned running shoe built for long-distance comfort. FF LUXE PLUS foam and PureGEL provide a soft ride, while lightweight engineered mesh reduces extra overlays. A knit tongue and ribbed collar wrap the foot. The HYBRID ASICSGRIP outsole combines ASICSGRIP and AHARPLUS, with greater rubber coverage for durability and grip over varied running surfaces.
