The Asics Gel-Nimbus is the most comfortable shoe, although I\'m not a runner, I spend many hours on my feet, and the shoes are awesome right out of the box. It is as if you are walking on pillows.

Wow, these are ridiculously comfortable. I tried several different running shoes on and these ones felt the best, no pressure points or stiffness. The first time I wore them I marched around an amusement park all day and my feet were very happy. The laces run at a slightly diagonal line down your foot, which is a little ugly but who cares.

I am now on my fourth pair of these sneakers. They are by far the best running sneaker on the market for me. I am a neutral runner, put on about 30 miles a week and also use them for other workouts, they hold up well, fit right out of the box, generous toe box and good cushion. Love these sneakers!

The Gel-Nimbus 11 is the perfect shoe for a neutral runner who's looking for cushioning without losing feel. Being a larger runner at over 200 lbs, I needed a shoe that would help in that area. I formally used the Mizuno Wave Rider line, and I am not knocking them, but switching to the Asics Nimbus 11 has literally given me a hop in my step. My feet and legs feel better after longer runs, I feel very satisfied with the purchase. One thing I would say, is the rubber on the shoe versus the Mizuno seems less mileage friendly. I am afraid that my Asics sole might wear down faster. Lastly, I ordered from Zappos.com so I could get their exclusive color, they couldn't be a more accommodating company, having had to change my delivery address 3 times, due to my mistake, they compensated me by delivering them overnight! You can't beat that in my book.

I have been wearing Asics Gel Nimbus for years. Of course every year they change the shoe a little bit. These shoes have tons of cushion for my bad feet. Have had plantar fasciitis for years and this shoe definitely helps.

Put these on and you're ready to go! Note they are generally wide (which was good for me), so if your hoof is a little on the wide side you can stick with the Mediums and skip the Wide size. Super comfy and they look hot. I get loads of comments.

Returned!
Bought this shoes because I loved my Nimbus 10 but this shoes was terrible! I'm a long distance runner but after 5 miles I had shin splints and knee pain. The heels and shoe box were too wide and I felt like my foot was flopping around in the shoe the entire run. There was no cushion and no support. Terrible fit, terrible run. Went back to my Cumulus I was using before I bought the Nimbus 10.

Love these shoes. I underpronate when I run and I have had trouble in the past finding the right shoe. These have proven to be very comfortable even as the miles get long.

I have ordered many pairs of shoes from Zappos. Their customer service is great. If you need to return something there is no hassle. They have good prices, too. I love my Asics shoes. They are the most comfortable sneakers I have ever had. Basically, if you need shoes, buy them from Zappos!

Awesome shoes! Started wearing Gel Nimbus three years ago. Have tried on many other makes and models, but can't find any others that feel as good right out of the box. The GN 10 was a mistake with the solid piece coming across your big toe (caused blisters). But the 11 is back to the great cushioning seen in prior models.

I have been wearing the ASICS Nimbus line for a few years now and have loved them. However this year I feel like the 11\\\'s are slightly less supportive through out the shoe and in the arch especially. They do still have good cushioning.

These are good shoes, cushioned where I need them to be and narrow enough for my bony feet. It is a good choice if you are looking for a neutral shoe for a rigid, high arch that will serve you well in long runs and high mileage.

I did lots of research on these shoes before purchasing them. I am a slightly over-pronator with a normal arch. Very comfortable, super stylish and lots of support. The cushioning system is top-notch and makes me want to run a little bit farther! Love the silver and grape combo, very nice!!

Great shoe! I love this shoe. I have a wide foot and love lots of cushioning. This shoe is the first shoe to ever fit me right out of the box. I ordered another pair just because I'm tired of wearing out a shoe and then struggling to find another one (even same name/style) that feels as terrific.

This is my second pair of Gel-Nimbus. I have a very narrow foot and these are the only shoes I have found to fit my foot. I run 25-35 miles per week and the extra cushioning on the ball of the shoe provides great support. These are the only shoes I wear when I am doing any type of exercise, i.e. running, kick boxing, personal training and weight lifting. I will continue to be a repeat customer. Thanks Zappos!!

Definetly worth the extra money. Have worn for bootcamp 5 days a week. I have a little extra weight on, and these have held up. Can\'t say anything bad about them. Comfortable, I also have high arches and these have enough support for those mile runs!

This shoe is everything Runner\'s World Magazine said that it would be in their Shoe Guide for Fall. It was Editor\'s Choice in Sept \'09, and earned that rating thanks to the extra toe box room (helps keep my toes from rubbing the inside of the shoe) and additional memory foam cushioning (including under the tongue of the shoe which makes it far more comfortable!). They were expensive, but I did 3 half marathons with them in the last 4 weeks, and they have served me well. It\'s worth the extra dough to get a good fit when you are running long distances. I\'m Sold.

I love these sneakers. After a few runs, that is. They have a lot of bounce, and cushion. This particular sneaker, the limited, Zappos edition is really nice to look at also. The teal is beautiful.

Not as expected. When my beloved 10s wore out, I was excited to see that the 11s had such good reviews. Not so for me. Right out of the box these were much looser in the heel and did not supply the cushioning of the 10s (I am an under pronator with narrow heels, so these are essential qualities). The cushioning felt odd and thin around my pinky toe area, almost as if there were two "steps" of subpar cushioning. I was disappointed that the narrow width was completely too wide even when laced as tight as comfortably possible. For the price and namesake, I expected a well cushioned form-fitting shoe. I know many GN fans complained about the 10s, but they worked much better for me. After I returned these I was (luckily) still able to find the 10 version to order.

Over the last several months I have been suffering with shin splints; years and years of exercising/cross-training and now, shin splints. Needless to say I did some Googling [went to one of those fancy running shoe stores that looks to fit your foot based on your gait] & they confirmed what I found. I am an under-pronator and need "enhanced" or "extra" cushioning. Subsequently, I spent a small fortune on shoes from the specialty running store, with inserts etc. Little help. So, I decided to invest in more expensive shoes sans inserts, but ones that are specifically for under-pronators, so far, these shoes have been my only comfort. I bought 2 pairs.

I\'ve worn the Gel Nimbus for about 7 years now. I agree this number 11 is better than the number 10 series. The Nimbus has great cushion and shock absorbency which is why I buy them. My knees get sore when I run and these shoes really take the pounding well. Very comfortable and the purple color is nice! Highly recommend if you get sore knees and need the extra cushion. Worth the money!!
