Favorite shoe. Replaced GEL Kayano 16 with these and liked them much better. Had switched to a Brooks shoe; however, the toe box was too narrow and gave me horrible blisters when it got hot, so back to Asics I went.

Because I have lower back issues, I have researched shoes that are best for that condition. Asics Gel Nimbus provides great stability as well as cushioning just like Asics says. I am a regular runner, and this is my fifth pair. After trying a number of different shoes and brands, I found these to be the best overall shoe and I will buy them again.

This is the first time that I have tried Asics and am very happy with them. Although I don't think any walking/running shoe is very attractive, this one is quite nice - have had compliments on its style. I will definitely buy other Asics. I cannot say enough about how much I love Zappos - always efficient, professional, and fun. Zappos is the first place I go when I'm looking for shoes. Thank you!

Nimbus is an appropriate moniker for these shoes. They feel like you are walking on a cloud from the moment they are put on. No complaints for these shoes even after brutal 12 and 13 hour shifts. I recieved numerous compliments on the style and color which was a bonus. Asics are the best!

I'm not a crazy runner, so I can't judge how "good" they are, but they are comfortable and fit true to their size! I'm happy about my purchase!

I am a new runner and these shoes are great! They are very comfortable and have excellent support. I did mark them as feeling narrower. I have a really high arch in addition to wide feet, so the shoes were a little tight until I wore them a few times. I love the color too!

I've had two surgeries on both feet and can never find a shoe that I don't want to get off of my feet in a couple of hours. I love these shoes. They fit great and are so well cushioned on the bottom I'd rather wear them than nothing at all! I'm even going to take up running again! I highly recommend. I usually wear an 8 1/2 in other shoes but have always bought 9's in Asics! Enjoy!

Price was great and the service excellent. They arrived the day after ordering, exactly when the customer service person said they would. I would recommend Zappos to my friends and family.

I really love this shoe. I wear them for all sporting activities from running to biking and I really like them. They fit just right, are light weight, stay tied, and are very comfortable. I have orthotic inserts and these shoes have removable cushion inserts to accommodate them perfectly.

I have tried numerous running shoes - I always come back to Asics! For my style running and high arch, this is the best choice! I like the wider toe area - I do not need or want toenail problems.

Love these shoes, comfortable for long runs, just the support and cushioning that I expect. And stylish at the same time. Plus I am a Zappos customer for life - fast shipping and service. It doesn't even feel like I am shopping online.

Great running shoe. I have a neutral stride (no overpronation, etc) but tend to get shin splints if I am in the wrong shoe or have over used my running shoes- these are terrific and I never get shin splints in them. Fantastic customer service too!

Love these! The color is great - I got the black and plum. The white in the mesh breaks up the black, so I don't feel like I'm wearing black shoes. They are light and super comfy. I run in them all the time. Asics are my favorite runners. I usually wear an 8 1/2 or 9. I got the 9 in these, and they are perfect.

The Asics Gel-Nimbus 12 is a great shoe. I am not a runner, but wear them to the gym and for casual wear. They seem to run a little small.

Love my Asics! I run half-marathons and marathons, so I put mucho miles on my shoes every week. Asics give me the support I need and I believe they help me stay injury free. I wouldn't buy any other brand. I also love my Zappos! I wouldn't shop anywhere else.

I normally wear a size 10 med; have a very high arch; and have been dealing with stress fractures for 3-4 years that are finally healed. For some reason, arch support, 'cushioned sole' and motion control do not go together in the world of tennis shoes. After doing a lot of reading on the different shoe descriptions, ASICS Gel-Nimbus 12 came up as the one that might work. I use these for exercise class as well as for my walking. So far, they are doing the job of giving me the support I need, and cushioning my foot, too. And I did not need to use an insert!! After living in Dansko's motion control clogs and sandals, it's so nice to be in a lighter shoe and one that flexes and has a soft base. And I get compliments on my cute tennis shoes.

Very comfortable shoes with excellent support for my foot type. I tend to roll foot inward so have knee issues. I wore another pair of older tennis shoes just to switch out and by the end of day my feet were killing me. I'm definitely throwing them out and possibly buying another pair of these to switch out as I wear tennis shoes approx. 5 days a week. I gave 4 stars for style because they basically look like everything else on the market. The silver is very shiny, but that's okay, reflective probably. I don't wear them at night so that wasn't a selling point for me, but might be for others!
