Great shoe! I had ordered a half size up as suggested by other reviewers but ended up having to send them back for my true size, as they slipped in the heel. They feel good and offer lots of support! I tend to get shin splints and so far with these shoes I haven't gotten them! Would highly recommend! Super fast shipping too! Love Zappos!

I absolutely love the Asics! Always order half a size larger, though! I was fitted to these shoes by a running store and they are the best! Most of all Zappos really stands behind their products!

I have worn the Nimbus for years, and it is the only shoe which really fits and supports my foot. The padding is very good, as is the arch support. It's more expensive than other running shoes, but you get what you pay for here in the comfort and support. I have a weak knee, and these shoes make my knee stop hurting when I wear them. I wish ASICS made dress shoes!

I've been wearing Asics for years, and I love these shoes. I previously had a pair of these Nimbus 13s, but the size had rubbed off. I ended up having to order 4 different sizes to find the right one. Naturally, Zappos was amazing for this. Love the shoes, love Zappos.

The most comfortable sneakers I have ever owned. I took the dog for a walk, wearing them straight out of the box with zero problems or discomfort. They have a great deal of cushioning that feels fantastic on your feet. Typically, I wear a 10 medium. Based on the reviews on Zappos and other sites about slightly smaller sizing, I chose a 10.5 wide and they fit perfectly.

I love these shoes - always like Asics but glad to have the new color. They are not quite as dark as the photo shows. I love them!

These shoes are like walking on clouds! I have a daily 50 minute fast walk/jog routine and have worn Gel-Nimbus for the past 5 years. This version is true to form and is great for under-pronators. I wear an 8.5N in dress shoes, but I need a 9N in Asics. My knees and feet thank me every time I buy a new pair.

Great running shoe! I'm a mid-foot striker with a narrow foot and this shoe fits well and has good forefoot cushioning.

I've owned these shoes for 4 months now and absolutely love them. I am on my feet all day on hard surfaces, and they keep my feet feeling great! I haven't any negative issues with them at all. I just ordered another pair so that I am guaranteed to have a pair at all times. :)

I needed a shoe with a wide toe box and narrow heel with good arch support and these are perfect. I'm training for a half marathon and so far these have done great. And, they're cute!

Love this shoe. I always buy Asics for running and changed from the 2100 and 3000 series to this shoe recently and couldn't be happier. It's like running on springs. I always order a half size up for extra room in the toe box and they fit perfectly. Great for a normal to under-pronator.

Great neutral, cushioned running shoe! I have run 7 marathons, and this is my favorite shoe. I ran 13 miles in them right out of the box. They have the most cushion of any shoe.

I like these a lot better than the Nimbus-12, got them in the grey/puple color---so cute! For some reason I had to go half a size up, I got size 8.5 for the Nimbus-12 but had to get a size 9 for these, not sure why. I'm a size 7.5-8 for regular shoes.

I found these shoes to be great for distance running because they are very squishy under the heel and under my mid-foot strike point. I ran two marathons in one week with no foot pain whatsoever. I bought the same size as my street shoes and my toenails are now black, so I would recommend buying half a size up from street shoe size for distance runners. Lots of room in the toe area, never any blisters, and still squishy after over 500 miles. However, these shoes are smellier than any other pair that I have had, and I have to wash them every few weeks.

Once I got a half size larger these shoes were perfect. There's no heel pain, and they're very comfortable during a run.

This is my second pair of Gel Nimbus 13's; I wore the first pair out training for a couple half marathons. I'm a runner that has occasional IT band issues. These were recommended by someone I know with the same issue. These shoes felt like running on clouds the first time I put them on! They were very comfortable, and had good cushioning. I wear them to run approximately 25 miles per week. The only complaint I have is the off-center lacing...not because it's bothersome to my foot, but because it looks a bit funny! What can I say, girls love being stylish.

Awesome running shoes! I only buy Asics and did the #1 before my last marathon a few weeks ago. I ordered new shoes for the race. I didn't even break them in, and they were perfect. They got me through 26.2 and many more since. Comfortable, and great for short or long distances. As with all Asics, I buy up 1 full size larger.

I am an under-pronator with narrow feet. I ordered three running shoes that are recommended for under-pronators, all the same size. The Brooks Glycerin 9, and the Asics Gel-Nimbus 12 and 13. Out of the three, I loved the look of the Brooks shoe, but it was half a size too small. The Asics Gel-Nimbus 12 was too small also. The Asics Gel-Nimbus 13 was just right.

I work out daily and Asics is the only shoe that provides the support and comfort that I need. The arch support is in the Gel- Nimbus 13 is excellent, and the shoe is extremely well cushioned. I can push the limits and my feet never hurt or get tired. They fit perfectly and if they are like other Asics I've owned will last a long time!

I bought these shoes because I was having major aches in my feet post exercise with other brands. These shoes are great. I walk 20+ miles a week. No aches. Worth every penny. I will definitely buy another pair when this one wears out.

A good follow-up to the Nimbus 12 which I bought last spring, but I wish the 13 was available in the black base color again. Asics makes great shoes when it comes to fit, cushion, support and durability so how about some updated color choices in addition to grey.
