Customer Reviews ASICS Gel-Nimbus® 12

These shoes are the best! Comfortable and supportive without being heavy. I originally bought these for running, but these are so comfortable that they are my go-to shoe for air travel and anytime I have to do an extensive amount of walking. My sports medicine physician (orthopedic) even commented that these are good especially for anyone who is having patellofemoral pain or knee stability issues as they are stable, impact absorbing (good for knees), and support the foot on the sides keeping your foot/ankle from rolling in or out while running. I loved these so much that I bought a pair for both my mom and mother-in-law to wear for walking. Highly recommended!

These are absolutely amazing athletic shoes! I would definitely recommend them to a friend. The only thing is that since I have narrow ankles, they slip on my heel, but most shoes do on me.

I received these shoes in a day and a half...after ordering online, I realized I should have probably ordered half-a-size up. I called Zappos and they were fast, and changed the size immediately and this didn't affect the time I received them at all! This is the first pair of running shoes I have bought in 8 years and I love them! They are so comfy and fit perfectly. They are so pretty and not tacky-looking like so many shoes I've seen today! I usually purchase Nikes, and this is my first pair of Asics. I won't go back to Nikes now! If I had ordered my actual size they would have been too small. As my first time buying shoes online, I will definitely use Zappos again. Amazing service and amazing shoes!

This is my 3rd pair of Nimbus shes. I am a PE Teacher, on my feet all day. With this shoe, my feet, ankles an knees don't hurt at the end of the day.

Because these are such all around great shoes I own three pairs. One for running, one for looking nice, and an old pair for working outside. The slightly asymmetrical lacing system is the answer for people like me who don't like pressure on the joint where their big toe meets their foot.

I usually wear Saucony and am a bit of an underpronator. I decided to try these and am very happy with them. They are very comfortable and have held up well so far.

Felt great right away! This was the first time I had dealt with Zappos and really am impressed on how quickly my order came! Love this company! They have me hooked!

I received the shoes the day after ordering, yay! They are great. I have plantar fascia so good shoes are very important. I have been using them for about a month now and love them. The insole is removable so i could slide my orthotic right in (I wear an 8 and ordered an 8 1/2 so my orthotic would fit, which worked out great)!

I love my Asics! Although I wear a size larger in running shoes than casual shoes, Asics are always consistent in size and I've never had to return a pair. The gel-nimbus is, hands down, my favorite. Another bonus is that Asics have a wider than average toe box.

This is my 4th pair of Asics Gel-Nimbus and they have become my go-to shoe. They not only look great but feel great. They breathe well and are light on my feet. I work on my feet so I wear them for 8+ hours as I walk and stand on concrete and my feet and they truly minimize the stress on my feet and legs.

I know these are running shoes but I use them for Jazzercise. They have great arch support and cushion and no break-in period. I've also run in them, but I am pretty loyal to Saucony for running shoes.

I put them on right out of the box, and I was in heaven. I have never enjoyed an athletic shoe this much. I use these for everyday, as I am not a runner. I do walk approximately five miles a day and even with plantar fascititis, heels spurs and very flat feet, my feet sing in these. I also like the fact that they do not show dirt easily. I did replace the insoles with my trusty Spenco insoles, and even though I normally wear Dansko Professional clogs every day, I am even more comfortable in these.

Best running shoes! I've tried a couple different brands/types including Mizuno and Nike and I've found these to be the best by FAR! I love these shoes! Ran a half a couple months ago and it really is like running on clouds. On my third pair. :)

This running shoe is amazingly comfortable. The shock absorbency is great! I have knee and back injuries but neither area bothered me during or after runs with these shoes. I vary in size for running shoes between 8 and 8.5, an 8 fits perfectly.

Zappos service is amazing. I have a very diffecult foot to fit and these AA shoes are wonderful!

Best running shoes I've ever had. It's like running on a bedded cloud. I am going to buy another pair, maybe two. Great running shoes!

This is my second pair of Asics Gel-Nimbus. I have Fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis, so I have problems with my feet. These shoes are great, I do however put in a better pair of insoles.

I love, love, love these shoes! Like a previous poster, I was once a die-hard Nike fan, but after purchasing my first pair of Asics 6 years ago, I have never looked back either. These shoes are by far the most comfortable running pair that I have ever owned. I usually run a few miles a day, several days a week, and these shoes really make a difference in the way that I feel afterward. Definitely recommend!

These shoes rock! I've been buying the Nimbus line since they started coming out and not one has failed me yet! There's no "breaking in" time for these shoes. Another thing that has me hooked is a good fit for my very high arch. The Gel-Nimbus has got that covered too! Don't hesitate! Get 'em!

These shoes are great! I recently began experiencing something similar to plantar fascia. As a barista, I'm on my feet for eight or nine hours at work. I also work out several times a week. While my old Asics are more comfortable than my Converse All-Stars, they are also about six years old and no longer offered enough support for my back and feet. Enter the Gel-Nimbus 12: so much cushion and support and they look great, too! My feet are thanking me already. Definitely recommend. I normally wear a 7.5 and ordered the same in these and they fit perfectly.

This is my favorite style and brand of shoe for running/walking. I usually buy a full size larger than I wear just to have plenty of toe room. They are very comfortable. I've bought Asics for several years because they fit my feet consistently.

Very comfortable shoes to run in. I mostly run on a treadmill and my feet are never uncomfortable when I'm done. I purchased a pair of Sauconys that were more expensive and they weren't nearly as comfortable as these Asics! Very cushioned and comfortable.

I am ordering my second pair of the ASICS Gel-Nimbus 12. I usually run 4 miles a day/4-5 times a week. I used to only buy Nikes but since I bought my first pair of ASICS I have not gone back. Great shoe. Good support.
