Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Nimbus® 19

Very narrow and tight. Used to be my favorite. Will be looking for something different.

Ive worn Asics for years, these seem really narrow in the toe box. Returning

Not a 9.5 medium width.

Had to return bc they were so tight they were painful. Go up half a size and if there’s ANY question about width- go wider than usual

I was disappointed with the Nimbus 20. It was not nearly as soft and cushioned as the Nimbus 19, and I ordered a half size up. It felt like the overall feel of the shoe was not nearly as soft or flexible, but the arch support was still there, so that is a positive After walking in them for a few hours, I could already tell a difference, and my feet were hurting, so I put my 19 model back on. I was hoping this version would me similar to the previous, but like many other reviewers stated, the shoe is not an improvement from previous versions. Asics should not have tampered with the structure so much. I may have to switch back to the Cumulus, or the Brooks Glycerin.

toe box is TINY

Color is beautiful. But it definitely runs small. I am returning and reordering a half size bigger.

Have worn Asics-Gel Nimbus for years - and have worn narrows when available. Each former pair was excellent. These do not fit. They seem small and very stiff. Hope this is not a trend.

These run small and tight compared to Asics Gel Nimbus 18.

I have run in the ASICS Nimbus for many, many years and the Nimbus 19 is NOT as comfortable! Thought it was just the particular pair I bought so went out and got a different pair, same discomfort. Third try (yes I really wanted the new Nimbus to work) was the same. In my opinion, ASICS ruined my favorite running shoe. Time to shop other brands.

Too short and too narrow. Will have to try a full size larger than I normally wear.

The shoe is not as comfortable as previous editions. The toe box is very narrow, and I ordered a size up. I am keeping them, but I am not happy.

The Gel-Nimbus has been my go to shoe. This version if very narrow. Had to order a full size larger and it was still too tight in the toe.

These shoes run very small. Usually I'm a 7.5 in Asics. Even the 8 was too snug. They are heading back. Lots of nice thick padding and relatively attractive--o well!

There is something very off about the sizing of this shoe. I've been buying the Asics nimbus for years and I've always purchased an 8.5 B. I'm an 8 or 8.5 in every shoe I own. For these nimbus 19 I had to order 9.5 W before they fit correctly. It took me ordering 3 times and was inconvenient. I do like the shoes, they are very comfortable but I just don't understand why the shoe sizing changed so dramatically.

I bought these for my daughter. We have always worn Asics. But these are way too small. Asics has changed up their sizing with this athletic shoe. Disappointing.

WOW! They weren't kidding when they say it runs small. I even ordered a Wide size (my foot is not wide) and it was STILL too small! Asics were my go-to for supportive shoes, but I'm switching to Hoka - I highly recommend!

Love love the color and style, I got them and I wear an 8.5, but bought a 9w and they were so tight!!!! Almost like wearing an 8 narrow. The arch was placed in a very uncomfortable location... they heart my feet just by trying them on. I don't know if these were rejects but for the price they should feet like gloves. I returned them but sad cause I love love the color and they did feel like a good support.

I am a long time fan of Asics. I hesitated to order because a reviewer stated a small toe box. I should have listened. The style is great, but the toe box is too small, causing my toes to go a little bit numb. Tried to give the pair to my daughter, but she also stated the same problem. Sadly, I am returning.

Very unhappy with the 19s. Way too tight across the toe box even after sizing up. If you size up the heel is to big.

I cannot believe that Zappos is still carrying this shoe. It must be costing them a fortune in return and reshipping charges because this shoe is WAY off in sizing. Not only is it a FULL size smaller than normal, the supposed wide is actually tighter on me than many medium width shoes. What a disaster. I'm not going to bother with getting a larger size, primarily because of the width. Too bad because it looks like Asics made a quality shoe -- they just used totally faulty patterns! Since I couldn't really wear it even to walk around the house in, I can't speak to the comfort. If you have narrow feet, give it a try though. I was disappointed that it didn't fit.
