Customer Reviews ASICS Gel-Nimbus® 12

The Gel-Nimbus 12 is one of the most comfortable shoes I have worn. Even though I can no longer run I wear this shoe all day every day. I highly recommend it to anyone who needs a truly cushioned, neutral shoe.

These shoes were immediately comfortable from the moment I took them out of the box. This was the 3rd pair of shoes I've tried (love Zappos return policy!) before finding a pair that fit comfortably. I have very big feet for a woman, and need athletic shoes with a narrow heel but wide toe box (I wear size 12EE). I first tried ordering men's shoes in a comparable size, but they didn't fit well. These shoes fit perfectly. I will definitely order them again when these wear out!

Great pair of sneaks. Had a lot of compliments on how nice they look. Will order again. Very comfy.

Asics are great. I have always worn Nikes, but wow, running in these I cannot even feel the friction on my feet. We actually replaced the orange laces with black, which tones it down a lot.

My husband is on his feet all day at work and also walks three miles daily for health. He loves this shoe. As soon as he tried them we ordered a second pair.

Love the shoes, upgraded from the Cumulus II. Only complaint is the laces are a tad short and double knotting a bit difficult.

I had a pair of the Nimbus 11 shoes, and I got these as well. I love these shoes for just walking around in. I'm not a runner, but just running outside a little you could definitely use these shoes for running. They have great cushioning, and the styling is better than average. I highly recommend these.

Bought this shoe for my husband. He loves it! But getting any response other than "it's comfortable" is like pulling teeth. So there you have it.

I ordered these shoes yesterday afternoon at 3pm and they arrived today at noon using the free shipping option! How does Zappos do it? Seriously, I am very impressed and you have my business for life. The shoes feel great and fit true to size. I'm very glad I went with Asics and look forward to a summer and falls worth of running in them. Thank you very much Zappos! You are one of the best companies that I have ever dealt with!

I stand on hard flooring all day at work. These shoes make me feel like I am on thickly padded carpet. Amazing! And they provide great support and are accepted by the Podiatry Association. Just bought my third pair!

It's an awesome shoe and has kept me doing half marathons for a long time. Being able to order it on-line through Zappos made it so much easier to get a new pair instead of having to drive all over town and finding that its not stocked. For an old guy like me (64), having a shoe a little wider generates much more comfort and makes the miles go by so easy. Keeps my feet and knees happy, now if I could only find something that would get that oxygen transfer in the lungs to be as effective as these shoes I could move up to doing marathons.

Super comfortable shoe! Switched from Kayano after many years and dig these! Great padding, light and good looking.

Best running shoes I have ever had. I can, out of all the shoes I have had, feel the cushion in every stride.

Great shoes and fit true to size. It's comfortable to run distances in. Zappos was terrific as usual with next day delivery.

First and foremost, Zappos remains the most customer focused retailer I know of. Great to work with! These shoes are perfect for me. I found them to be true to size, extremely comfortable out of the box, and great support in all the right places for me (arch, heel, toe box). I am 6'7 tall and 260 lbs. so I need a sturdy shoe. It's been great so far and I highly recommend them. I'll buy another pair.

This is quite possibly the most comfortable shoe I have ever owned. This is my third pair of Asics and all have been great shoes. They provide great support. I only have one small issue and that is during the winter the mesh toe area can be a little cold but not enough of a problem for me to stop buying Asics shoes.

These are my second pair of Asics running shoes. I previously had a pair of Gel-Kayano's. The Nimbus are everything you would expect - supremely comfortable - they feel like they make running easier (especially after running in some dead tennis shoes for the last year). Zappos half sizes saved me on these. I'm a 12.5 in these shoes and good luck finding that size in a sports store. In terms of style, these running shoes aren't exactly built for the wine bar but I went for the grey and orange and I feel they are a little less dorky than the brilliant white of most running shoes.

The Gel-Nimbus 12 was recommended to me by a friend and this is my 2nd pair, great fit and comfort.

By far, the best Asics I have owned yet. Very comfortable. The orange color does get me a fair number of compliments and strange looks though.

Used to get pain in my arches on longer runs (over 5 miles). Since using them I don't get that pain. Great for road and hill runs.

Overall a well constructed shoe. Good to run in. They are a little narrow but should get better as they are used.

Aspics makes a great shoe. This is my 5th pair of Asics Numbus. I love them.

Overall a well constructed shoe. Good to run in. They are a little narrow but should get better as they are used.

Good fit, comfort and styling. The off center lacing is a bit wierd though. I don'tsee how this is an improvement.

I was told by a friend to get this model shoe because of my high arches. This is my fourth pair of Nimbus. I love them. If you have high arches and need support, even for everyday, theses are it.
