The Researcher’s Take: Why We Like It
If you are looking for the absolute softest, most comfortable daily running shoe on the market, the ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 is the reigning queen of cushion.
Based on our analysis of the updates, ASICS has doubled down on comfort and sustainability. The standout feature is the PureGEL™ technology in the heel. Unlike the old visible gel, this new internal gel is softer and lighter, providing incredibly smooth transitions. Paired with the massive stack of FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO foam, it feels like landing on marshmallows every time your foot strikes the ground.
Key Features Breakdown
- Cloud-Like Cushioning: The FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO midsole delivers ASICS’ most energized and pillowy ride yet. It’s made with approximately 24% bio-based content, so it’s lighter on your feet and the planet.
- PureGEL Softness: Hidden in the heel, the PureGEL™ technology is 65% softer than previous visible GEL versions. It absorbs impact so effectively you barely feel the pavement.
- Luxurious Fit: The engineered jacquard mesh upper wraps your foot with a soft, breathable feel. It’s designed to improve fit and comfort while keeping your feet cool.
- Eco-Conscious Design: We love the commitment to sustainability. At least 75% of the main upper material is recycled, and the sockliner process significantly reduces water usage and carbon emissions.
