We're with Susan who's the product
0:02
manager for the Gel Nimbus 28. Susan,
0:07
tell us what's happening here with this
0:09
very sleek looking Nimbus.
0:11
Yeah. So, happy to walk you through the
0:14
updates today. So, let me talk about
0:17
maybe what's the same from the previous
0:20
version. So, we're still continuing to
0:22
use our really nice FF glass plus
0:25
midsole foam. We're also at the same
0:28
staff height. So we have 43.5 in the
0:31
heel at an 8 mm offset.
0:35
Uh we continue to use pure gel in the
0:38
heel for really nice soft luxurious
0:41
stepping comfort and then also comfort
0:43
during your running experience.
0:46
However, some big changes are that we
0:48
lost about an ounce in weight. So 24 g.
0:52
A big part of that is the outsole
0:55
configuration has changed quite a bit
0:57
from the previous version. So, the way
1:00
that this outsole is laid out gives a
1:02
really nice comfortable heel to toe
1:06
ride. It feels so smooth and you almost
1:09
forget that you're wearing a shoe, which
1:11
is one of the best compliments you can
1:13
get as a product manager. It should feel
1:15
natural and comfortable. And then with
1:18
the upper, this is probably one of my
1:21
favorite pieces. This is a really soft
1:24
touch engineered knit.
1:27
Can you show us how it's the stretch to
1:29
it?
1:30
Yeah. So, I'll probably put my hand in.
1:32
Um, it definitely flexes a bit and kind
1:35
of moves with your foot. However, still
1:37
maintains its shape so you're not
1:39
feeling unstable in the shoe. And then
1:43
we continue to use our really luxurious
1:46
knit tongue with the pull tab.
1:48
Look at that.
1:49
I mean, this thing is so comfortable. I
1:52
know I'm a bit biased, but you put the
1:54
shoe on and it just feels
1:56
all the way around the foot.
1:58
Yeah, it really just feels like it's a
2:00
part of your foot, which is great. And
2:02
then we continue to have the really nice
2:05
knit pull tab in the back. So, it's
2:07
super soft, really comfy.
2:08
You think I need them now?
2:10
I would say so. Yeah. Um, but it retails
2:14
for 170 and it'll come out on January
2:17
1st. Thank you.
