Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Nimbus® 15

These are light weight, with great support. The ideal shoe for an avid walker like me. I'll be buying another pair. Love the brand.

These are amazing. I workout 2+ hours a day - doing cardio and cross-fit and they support my knees and back super well. I can get about 6 months out of each pair and am super happy to have found them.

I have extremely high arches, and this shoe is the closest I've ever found to giving me the support I need without insoles. My feet were singing. The cushioning is wonderful as well.

I wore them for this first time today and put 11 miles on them. This shoe was the shoe I have been looking for to replace my Mizuno wave riders. Before I bought these shoes I actually bought the Mizuno Prophecy 3, which were the worst shoes I have ever worn and expensive (blisters, feet numbing, knees hurt and I only ran 4 miles). So then I finally decided to try the Asics Nimbus. They actually don't feel that heavy like some people reviews say. I avoided them for some time because I thought they would be too heavy and clunky. I usually wear a 9 in sneakers and 8.5 for sandals. I bought the size 9 in pink/white/green ones and I love them. I guess I am now a fan of Asics.

After reading another person's review who claimed she wasn't a runner but walked up to 100 miles per month I thought I would give these shoes a try. For me, a 5k beginner, these shoes have been wonderful providing my lower back with much needed support as well as good arch support. I tried another brand of shoe last season and regretted it. Asics for me are well worth the price for the comfort and support they provide. I listened to her suggestion and purchased a half size larger very glad I did they fit perfectly.

Just got back from my first run with these and they were great. I used to be such a Nike fan, but now prefer Asics for my running shoes. Make sure you order a half size larger. I had to return my first pair, but Zappos makes the process easy.

After purchasing the Asics Cumulus and loving them, I read the reviews of the Nimbus and ordered them as well. I ordered a half size bigger than I normally order. Both styles are amazing for arch support and cushioning. The toe area is roomy and I love the way the heal of the shoe fits, it is padded and hugs the heel so they do not slip. I alternate each day between the two styles. These shoes are well worth the price. I have always had arch issues but these shoes really help support them. I love the colors but for people in the health profession that need white maybe you could add those as an option.

I love these shoes! I purchased them shortly before going to Korea, where I walked over 38 miles in a week! My feet were great! These shoes were awesome!

Have worn Asics GEL-Nimbus for many years after a podiatrist recommended them after my foot injury. I agree with other reviewers. I like this year's version better than last year's. As always, I can put them on and go for miles without any breaking in time.

I bought 4 diff types of Asics and this one is by far the most comfortable Asics I've ever worn. I bought two pairs. I always insert a memory foam cushion which adds to the comfort-very pretty colors, I bought the turquoise and the purple color.

Appreciate the all-around support. They are holding up. Good shoes. Used for walking and some running. Generally about 3 miles per day.

The Nimbus 15 is like walking on air. Very comfortable cushioning for my aching little feet, very good support & overall comfort. Worth the money - it's a well-made product. I used to be a Nike fan, but have found that the quality of their product has gone downhill. I'm an Asics gal now.

This shoe is wonderful. Very comfortable and lightweight. It has helped with my my plantar fasciitis.

These are the best running shoes I have bought. This is my third pair! They are comfortable, not too narrow - and they hold up well. And why would I buy them anywhere other than Zappos?! Zappos is simply the best. Fast delivery, great choice of products, excellent customer service and unbeatable prices. Everyone is always excited when a Zappos box arrives!

I love these sneakers! I wore them for everything: classes at the gym, running, and I ran 2 half marathons in them with no problems. Good cushion. Fits true to size. I will say that I got the Nimbus 15 Lite Show as well, but I ended up having to go up 1/2 size. I will definitely be buying several more pair before the 16s come out.

I have a high arch and wide feet and walk 9 -12 miles per week. This is my second pair and they are awesome. So comfy and my knees and hips don't feel sore. Two thumbs up. I went up 1/2 a size.

I highly recommend this model if you have plantar fasciitis. A podiatrist had recommended this to my friend & since I had the same problem I got it. I was very happily surprised as I gradually overcame the constant pain. I got my 2nd pair & I can say that this was my cure.

Amazing! I've searched for the perfect shoes for me for so long and finally found them! Comfortable and supportive, just love them. Street shoe size 8, running shoe usually 8.5. Got these in 8.5 and may run a bit small but after the first wear they are perfect.

This shoe runs small. I have worn a size 9.5 in Asics running shoes for years and this new pair is too short. My toes rub the ends of the shoes. I had to return them.

I got these for boot camp. Wonderful! Provides lots of stability for jumping, side moving and light running. Got lots of compliments on the color!

Great shoe; the most comfortable of all the Asics I have tried; the Gel Kayano series has been my favorite. It is like walking on a cloud; the cushioning is superb. I walk about 20 miles per week. I ordered the white/black/lime/pink combination. The only Nimbus 15 not on sale, but the only color I liked. This shoe runs small and a bit narrow; I ordered a 1/2 size up...8.5B to size 9B. Even in the 9B, I have to wear thinner socks. I hear the new Nimbus 16 has even more cushion and more room in the toe box.

Love these running shoes. Although I'm not a runner but I have aching feet in the morning and these shoes have helped a lot... a LOT. Great support. A must to order a size larger than your regular size. Width is pretty narrow which made me purchase a wide width. So my answers below are for the 9.5W that I ordered and not the 8.5 that I normally wear.

I have flat feet and over-pronate and the GEL-Nimbus 15 fit great. There is enough cushioning and support to make them extremely comfortable. And of course, Zappos' service is great!

As always Asics scores all stars with me. My go-to brand for running shoes. Comfortable and supportive for a run right out of the box with no need to break in. Love them!

Although I am not a runner, I decided to purchase this shoe for aerobics/cardio. My personal training group sessions are high impact and I found that my legs, ankles and feet were sore after working out. These shoes are GREAT and really helped during my workouts. I have the support that I need and don't have issues with sore shins, legs, feet, ankles, etc. I found that I didn't have to order a size up- for me they were true to size, but perhaps that is because I don't wear thick socks. The first time I wore them, I had to get used to the feel of the shoe on my foot and kinda break them in, but once I did, it was fine. I definitely recommend these shoes for anyone that is doing HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training), High Impact Aerobics, Running or walking on hard surfaces wherein cushioning is needed.
