I love this shoe. The Nimbus had an excellent fit. The cushioning was good and very balanced. I was so impressed that I will never buy another shoe for running. I even bought my husband a pair of Asics. If you need a more stable shoe I would try the Asics Kinetic.

These shoes are great for orthotic wearers. I order a half size up because of my orthotics, but otherwise they fit true to size. Excellent comfort.

I have been a long time fan of the 2100 series of Asics running shoes. However, the last generation didn't have the same comfortable feel so I switched to the Nimbus. Huge difference in cushioning and comfort. I am sold on this shoe!

Great shoes, feels like running on air, I often have knee pain when running and it doesn't happen in these shoes.

Wonderful. Like so very much! The only thing I would change is the white part on the bottom and keep the entire shoe black and silver. I would have even made it a plum color. I think the off-set laces are wonderful because I have a very large bone on the top of my mid-foot. This completely alleviates any pain or pressure. Wonderful.

This is the most comfortable pair of tennis shoes I have ever worn. I'm on my feet 12 hr.s a day on my job and needed to try a shoe that would help me make it through the day and these are it! I was able to wear them the entire shift with no breaking in! Gives your heels a lot of cushion and doesn't crunch your toes. Great if you're on your feet a lot! Thank you Zappos.

Loved these! I wear sizes 7 1/2 to 8, these were definitely better-fitting in the 8. The tongue is well-cushioned and the mesh upper lets my feet feel free. The heel is cushioned with memory foam which feels tight when I first put them on but in a few minutes it was perfectly molded to my foot's shape. EXxcellent and worth the price, I will keep buying this style.

Love them! Only downside is that the sole wears away quickly, but I don't particularly care. The feel of these shoes is completely awesome. I order a whole size up, though. I wear a ten in every day shoes, but an 11 in these. I also have to wear orthotic arch supports in my shoes. These shoes are deep enough so my arch supports fit perfectly. Even without them, they still fit just fine.

I love these shoes! I'll never buy another running shoe again. As soon as they wear out I order the same style in a different color, it's a no brainer. So comfortable and roomy in the toe area too.

These sneakers are great for the gym. Lots of ankle support and are very comfortable. These are my second pair! I wore my old ones out and didn't even go to the runner shop to try anything else, I just ordered them from Zappos!

This shoe is like the Cadillac of all running shoes. It's neutral, so for underpronators (supinators) and people with high arches. I am both, and I loved the spring back in this shoe when I jumped up and down. And, of course, I have to give Zappos love in general for getting it to me within 23 hours of me ordering it.

ASICS, Nike

Zappos saved my vacation with their unbelievable service. On my way to Disney World, I realized I had forgotten to pack my Asics so I called Zappos and ordered a new pair. They were there waiting for me on my bed at the Disney World Resort the next morning. Zappos is wonderful and Asics are great shoes too. I now have three pairs. One I use for tennis. They make a great tennis shoe. All came from Zappos. I have been a fan of Zappos for a long time.

I love these shoes. I have terrible feet that are very narrow with extremely high arches and insteps. These are the most comfortable shoes I have found in years. I wish they made a court shoe too.

I'm usually a Brooks fan, but after feeling like the Glycerin 8 wears out fairly quickly, I thought I'd try an Asics again. My husband and son really like theirs. It's a really good running shoe; has great support/stability in the heel, arch and the forefoot. Very cushiony; plenty roomy in the Wide width, but not "swimmy." Lets you toe off nicely, and is a quiet sole. Seems like a serious running shoe! I usually wear a Size 7, but ordered this in a 7.5, as the reviews suggested. Perfect fit.

Brooks, Saucony

These shoes are so wonderful I have them 2 colors...and might have to order another pair for back up! Full disclosure: I am not a runner, and suffer from plantar fasciitis and heel spurs. My orthotics fit in these shoes perfectly and they are without question the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn.

Most amazing shoe ever! I am an under pronator/supinator with a regular arch and this shoe erases discomfort and feels like walking on clouds. It fits a bit smaller than true size. You should go up about a half size. Great for training.

I was kind of hesitant of purchasing these due to the price, but I'm definitely glad I invested in these! My knees usually hurt when I run but with these it's all comfort! I love 'em!

Great shoes for running. I have been using this model for years. I purchase them from Zappos because they sell narrow sizes. Zappos service is excellent. My order was delivered next day and shipping was free.

On my second pair of these (or this series) and love them. "Neutral cushioning" is recommended to those with high arches to prevent lower leg and hip injury. These have allowed me to run again after giving up for many years. Closing in on 50, I can't say how wonderful it is to return to the sport I love so much with less complication than I had in my late 20s and 30s!

The fit, heel stability and gel cushioning are awesome. I have been a Saucony fan for years because of the great fit I found in a couple models, but was always disappointed in how quickly Saucony cushioning broke down and I had to buy new shoes. Hopefully these Asics will hold up better...so far, so good.

Shoes fit great. Awesome for someone with a little bit wider feet. Cool colors, don't look dirty when they get a little dirty.
