  • Cloudlike Cushioning

    FF BLAST PLUS cushioning delivers a soft yet responsive underfoot feel, creating a cloudlike ride that stays lightweight and comfortable over long distances. The high-stack design helps reduce impact and keep every stride feeling smooth and protected.

  • Soft Landings

    PureGEL technology is strategically placed in the heel to enhance shock absorption, reducing impact at foot strike and promoting softer, smoother landings. This helps minimise joint stress and keeps your runs feeling effortless from start to finish.

  • All-Around Comfort

    An engineered knit upper combines breathability with a plush collar lining to deliver a secure, premium fit. The result is all-day comfort with gentle foot lockdown, making the Nimbus 28 ideal for daily training and long, easy miles.
