Love these shoes! Lots of comfortable padding inside to cradle your feet, and minimize the impact no matter your running surface. I also wear these as a casual, everyday shoe. My feet have high arches and these shoes have great support. This is the third pair of Gel Nimbus 12's, as I've bought a pair for each of my two cross-country running kids. The 3 of us are very happy! Thanks Zappos!

What a great shoe! Fits right out of the box. Felt so great, I immediately took it out for a spin on the treadmill. I have high arches, and a wide forefoot. Ordered a wide size 7, and it couldn't feel better if it grew on my feet. So happy, I'm trying to resist ordering 7 more pairs so I'll always be ready!

I love my Gel-Nimbus 12 running shoes that I bought at a great price from Zappos! I have been running in these Asics for over 8 years and they are my absolute favorites! I recommend them to everyone.

These shoes fit perfectly right out of the box. They were recommended to me by my daughter. Since I had little shopping time, I decided to try Zappos. Great athletic shoes!

I bought a pair of these last year because I was reading in Woman's Day that underpronators should be wearing shoes similar to these. I've had foot problems while running and suffered from a stress fracture in both my feet. These shoes are amazing! They are light and support very well, especially with orthotics. I just purchased another pair of these to train for a marathon. Definitely going to continue purchasing this model. The back of the shoes can tend to rub so make sure socks cover the achilles tendon to avoid chafing. Highly recommend these shoes to everyday runners and marathoners.

I got the black and purple Asocs and love them. I initially only used them to run in...but ended up using them at work, also. I work 12 hours in an ER and they are comfortable from beginning of shift to end of shift. I have a wide foot and overpronate and these shoes help stabilize my feet. Love them and definitely recommend them!

Love these shoes! My shins don't hurt after running! My heels don't hurt either. It feels like walking on a cloud! I can't live without these sneakers!

I bought a pair of these shoes when training for my second half marathon. I liked them so much I went back to buy another pair but they are last year's model so I could not find them. Zappos had them, and in my size! I don't like this color much but it was the only one I could find in my size. I ordered 2 pair, and they arrived at my house within 5 days. Thanks Zappos!

Absolutely love these! These are by far the most comfortable sneakers I have ever bought in my entire life. They feel so good when you walk, run, workout, anything, I highly recommend them, and they are worth the price!

Love these shoes. The asymmetric lacing took a bit of getting used to but after wearing them I found the configuration adds to the shoe's stability. I am not a runner - rather a long-distance mosey-ier. I walk 3-4 miles every day with my dog on a gravel mountain road. Unsure whether I am a "pronator" or a "supinator", I have a tendency to roll my left foot outward then inward resulting in the ball of my foot becoming extremely painful. Wider shoes initially "fixed" the pain problem but my heel "slopped" up & down. The Gel-Nimbus is comfortable with a normal heel position & plenty of toe box room. I love these shoes, and I love Zappos!

Love these sneakers. I run about 3 miles/5 days a week and I was able to run with these right out of the box.

These are the best running shoes ever! I have feet problems and have to wear an orthotic insert. With these shoes my insert fits perfectly and the shoes are very comfortable. I love how the lace up is offset a little on the inside of the shoe. Love these shoes!

I wear a street shoe size 8. I'm a C width, but only my forefoot is slightly wide. I wear a 9B in Asics usual, so I ordered a 9B, and they fit great. They may be smidgen shorter than my old Nimbus, but I'm not sure. I developed planter fasciitis a few years ago, but then it went away, and I switched to Nimbus. I haven't had those issues since. This shoe has lots of cushioning and is so comfortable. The width is true to size, but the forefoot is wider, which is why they fit me so well. I've held off wearing them for a few months though because the electric blue color in person was so unattractive to me. I've decided to keep the shoes, though, & start wearing them, since most of the electric blue doesn't show under my pants. The arch support in this Nimbus is excellent. I like the gray background under the mesh so dirt doesn't show as much. This is as great a shoe as my old Nimbus ones. I can wear the Nimbus all day long and walk all over the place w/no discomfort or tired feet.

Pleasantly surprised! I wasn't sure how the offset laces would feel, but I was pleasantly surprised when I put these on. Good support too.

Love 'em! It's my second pair of the best neutral shoe I've had so far. Asics, please do not change the design or fit, it's just about perfect!

Hi, this is the first time I have ordered from Zappos and I love them! Oh, and the running shoes too. I have always worn Asics, but not the Gel Nimbus. Great cushioning and all around a great product. I ordered a 8.5 in Women's, and that is what I wear and it fight in this shoe as well. The price was great. I price shop a lot, and this one came in first. Thanks so much Zappos. Just a side note, your customer service is outstanding!

These are great shoes. I have bad feet- high arches that are falling, some pronation, plantar fascia- I used to wear NB, but discovered ASICS and will never go back. I have started jogging. They have enough space for my orthotic- love these! I bought them in 2 colors. They may be a little wider than usual because I have wide feet but wear the B width with my orthotic.

Clarks, Kumfs, Naturalizer
