Customer Reviews ASICS Gel-Nimbus® 12

I wore the Nimbus versions 8-10 for distance running (including two marathons), but I recently switched to the Reebok Zigtechs (lighter but much less cushion). You can't beat the cushioning on the Numbus. Based on other reviews, I ordered a half size up (I previously wore an 11, but ordered an 11.5) and I'm so glad I did. They fit perfectly and I have received plenty of compliments on the color.

Theses shoes are very comfortable and I like the way they look. Good value for the price.

I love these shoes. I have plantar fasciitis and wear a 3/4 hard othotic. These shoes accommodate the orthotic nicely and the shoes are comfortable and stable. I buy a new pair every 6 months as I wear them around almost every day. No break in time. My foot doctor told me to buy this brand.

Awesome shoe. I ordered my exact size and they fit perfectly. No breaking in period at all. I highly recommend these shoes.

Very comfy shoes, Asics are my favorite brand as they accommodate those of us with gargantuan feet. The front laces are a little cock-eyed but still very cool.

An amazing shoe. So comfortable and cushy, feels more like a slipper! Lots of cushioning, so very supportive. Extremely cute, in the white/raspberry combo. Propels you right into action, making you want to stay on your feet and keep on moving. I had New Balance for the past four years and kept having stability, cushioning issues. I read a review about this shoe and followed it all the way to the check out basket. I have on foot that's 1/2 size smaller than the other, which is common. My longer foot is a size 5 1/2, but I ordered the 6's just in case it felt cramped in the 5 1/2. But thankfully it did not! This is great for me, as now my size 5 foot is not unstable in a size 6 shoe. This is a great choice. Thanks Zappos for the fast shipping and always hassle free service.

Great fitting running shoes and cushiony, good for my bad knee, last a long time (for running sneakers). They're the only ones I've been able to find that fit consistently well.

Love these shoes right out of the box. I never thought I would switch from my Mizuno Wave-Riders, but I read on-line reviews & ordered a pair. After 4-mile jog next day ordered 2nd pair.

I love this shoe - I wear a size 11 1/2 and my feet are relatively wide. This shoe fit me perfect. The toe box is wide, which is great for me.

Love these! I have been wearing this style shoe for about a year and I don't think I will ever run in anything else. The toe box feels a little more narrow than the previous Gel Nimbus 12s I've had but still a great shoe!

I have ordered several pairs of shoes from Zappos over the years and, as always, received exactly what I wanted and on time, as promised. Many times, the order has been upgraded to arrive much sooner than I expected. I especially like the products ratings (size, fit, width, quality & arch support). Many times, these ratings have influenced my decisions. Thanks, Zappos, you rock!

These are the best shoes I have ever had. They are so comfortable and fit your feet like a glove. I never want to take them off. No other shoe can ever compare. I love how they tie up on the side. Please don't stop making this shoe.

The laces are off centered, which seemed a little odd to me, but they feel fine when on.

These running shoes are amazing! I've been having trouble with my back so I thought a more cushioned shoe would help since I do a lot of walking. I hadn't worn Asics in years but wish I had tried them sooner. These are incredibly comfortable, really cute, and my back feels great. I ordered a selection of running shoes from Zappos, Adidas, Nike, etc -- these were by far the most comfortable. It laces up on a diagonal which, surprisingly, makes it really easy to put on.

The silver stripes are very shiny! Shoe is very comfortable, but I needed a squarer toebox.

I ordered a bunch of Asics, and found this one to have the best cushioning in heel and toe both. Perfect for Step, running, Bosu, Aerobics high impact. My old Gel Kayano 16's 10.5 started feeling too big, like they would fall off my foot when I kicked too high. But these do not. They may stretch over time.

Asics are the best shoe! I had foot trouble for years, until a foot doctor told me that I needed to get Asics shoes. Since doing that, I have not had any trouble with my feet. These shoes are very comfortable. I normally wear an 11, but needed an 11.5. Great for the serious walker!

I always wore Nike AirMax. First pair of Asics, fantastic. Lightweight, great arch support, feels great on top of foot way laces are styled, well cushioned heel.

You will love these shoes the moment you put them on! You can feel the cushion from the front to the back. They never need to be broke in, they are comfortable from the start. A bit high priced but worth the money! I got another brand to try out because of the price of these, they were horrible. I went right back to the Asics! I had a pair that I basically wore out and loved to their last day! I use these 6 days a week/2 hours a day for my workouts (weight lifting) and 30min cardio for the Couch to 5K. Excellent shoes!

Love these Asics Gel Nimbus 12. They are like clouds on my feet. I wouldn't buy anything else and Zappos has the best selection.

These shoes feel like I'm truly walking on clouds. Lots of cushioning; wide toe box like most all Asics running shoes. Very happy with these.

Tried these in 11 and 11 1/2 - to me it felt like they were the same. Both short in the toe. I'm going back to what I always do - ordering a Men's 10.

Love this shoe! I am a nurse and I work 12 hour shifts. I have tried many different types of shoes to find a style to get me through the entire night shift, and I finally found it with this shoe. It took a few weeks to really break them in, but now I really feel like I'm walking on a cloud. These were originally purchased just to be a work shoe, but I find myself wearing them all the time now. I will definitely be purchasing a second pair. Thanks, Zappos!
