I'm a convert from the Gel Cumulus, the Nimbus 13 are so much more comfy! I usually wear a 6N but had to go with the 6.5N, the 6 was just a tab bit too short.

Only great things to say about this shoe - great looks, great fit, great comfort! I love it and found it to be exactly what I was looking for. It is lightweight, fits very comfortably and I haven't had any problems with knee or foot pain or discomfort. Love them!

I have worn Asics for over 10 years, but this is my first pair of Gel Nimbus shoes. They are comfortable right out of the box an good for those who over-pronate or have high arches. I use an orthotic which swaps out easily with the insole.

I currently own Gel-Nimbus 12 shoes and love them. I was having problems with my knees while walking and these took care of that problem. Just ordered the Gel-Niumbus 13 and look forward to wearing the new shoes. Thanks Zappos I will be ordering again.

Love the color and very comfortable. I wear a 6 1/2 shoe but in these I had to get a 7 1/2.

I had no idea why people enjoyed running until I decided to invest on good sneakers. Did some research, learned that I underpronate (supinate) and that I needed cushion sneakers that would correct my stride. Wow! I love the treadmill now! The pain in the shins is a thing of the past with these puppies. Highly recommended if you supinate like me. My only complaint is that the colors are ugly! The guy version of Asics has much nicer colors.

This shoe is wonderful...I am not sure about it being a noticeable update from the Nimbus 12, but it definitely is just as good. There is a lot of cushioning and they have gotten me through a few 5 mile runs now with no complaints. I have bought the Nimbus for the last 6 years and this shoe has never disappointed me.

I ordered these shoes because I underpronate when running. They make a difference in how my legs and hips feel afterward. I lived in Africa and the running trail on base was hard packed dirt, as well as loose sand, uneven, rocky desert terrain. They are a little on the narrow side and the shoe laces were a smidge too short for my liking. All in all they are an excellent buy and I still wear them now that I am back home when running on asphalt.

I love these shoes. Asics has always been my go to running shoes. They are very cute but not too flashy. My custom made insoles fit great inside when the original insole is removed. They wash great with a load of towels.

I have a hard time getting a sneaker to fit well - Asics does the job. Have a high instep so get the wide and is very comfy. Find it very true to my shoe size and would recommend to anyone looking for an excellent walking or running shoe. Color combo is really nice.

Love these! Cushioning is great. I can now go longer on the treadmill since my feet don't hurt. I did have to put in a sole insert for my high arches, but that was expected. Highly recommended! Make sure to get a 1/2 size larger than your dress shoe size to accomodate thick work-out socks.

I exercise 30-50 miles per week and I have always used Asics. This model is great for those of us who are really hard on our feet; I also suffer from Neuropathy and these sneakers allow me to exercise as much as I want without the pain. This particular model I had looked high and low for in local stores but only one place carried it but not in my size. Zappos not only had my size but also a much better selection. I ordered the sneaker on a Saturday and had it that Monday. It simply does not get any easier than this. I had never thought to order running sneakers from Zappos and from now on I will continue to get them here.

I love these running shoes! So comfortable with no break in time needed. I have a narrower foot so I found this shoe ran narrower for a medium width. It feet perfectly in the toe bead and heal. This is my favorite new running shoe. Will continue to buy this brand.

These have got to be the most comfortable running shoes ever made! I have other Asics shoes, but these are wonderful. I usually wear a size 8 shoe, but ordered an 8.5 and they fit beautifully.

I have been running for about 15 years now. In 2008 I had to take almost a year off due to a Morton's neuroma, it was so painful I could not walk much less run. After 4 shots, flat shoes with good support and cushion I run 20-25 miles a week. The Asics Gel-Nimbus is the one for me. I have worn out more pairs than I can count. I get between 4 and 500 miles on a pair, my legs tell the story when they need replacing. A friend told me about Zappos and I have ordered several things now and been more than happy. Why spend an entire day looking for shoes when there's Zappos!

The shoes came in fast as what I can expect from Zappos. I usually wear size 6.5 for regular shoes. I ordered size 7 as one should usually order a half to full size up for running shoes. The shoes have a gel system that provides lots of cushioning. Design of the shoes is also very nice. I look forward to jogging outside in these shoes.

Found these to be very narrow. I usually never wear a wide, but decided to order them in a wide. They were so tight it felt like my feet were going to sleep!

I just love these shoes. You never have to break them in. Just put them on and run with no worry of blisters.

I'm an avid Asics Gel-Nimbus fan, been running for many years in them. I loved this color combination...and was really happy to put them on and go! Great foot/heel/arch support yet nicely light weight...and they look cool too!

The Asics Gel Nimbus line has been pretty consistent over the past few years for me. I supinate, and these work fine for me. They're pricey, but when I've tried other brands and styles, I haven't found a good replacement shoe yet. I love the colors on this particular model (black/green/white) and bought an extra pair. I usually replace their insoles with my own, but their feel so nice and cushy and soft. These are good quality shoes and they look pretty great as well.

This pair will be my 3rd pair of Nimbus shoes; I love them and recommend them to anybody who overpronates. They are built perfectly for the runner. It's the best shoe on the marker for runners.
