I’ve worn ASICS Gel-Nimbus for years, and it seems they’ve become more narrow with each iteration. The standard D width in this shoe is too narrow, the EE width is much better and almost perfect for my feet although not as wide as other brands’ EE width shoes. I wear customer orthotics so cannot comment on the arch supports. I would recommend this show only in EE width.

Ever since buying these a week ago I've been able to tack on an extra mile to my daily running regiment. Since 2005 I would only buy the ASICS GT models and I wanted to try a shoe that was made for longer distance running. I'm very happy with The ASICS Nimbus model and I recommend them to any runner looking to take their training to the next level.

My husband loves them. This is his first pair of ASICS and due to the other reviews stating they run small, he went up a 1/2 size and they fit perfectly!

Just got last week. They are very light and very comfortable. No break in time. They are good to go first time you put them on. Like others said order 1/2 size bigger then normally wear.

Bought these for my husband. He wears between a 10 and 11. Always 11s in Asics. Bought the 11's and they were too small. Got the 11.5 and he says they are perfect. He also thinks they are super sexy looking with the (what he calls) snake skin look. He loves how they feel "like walking on air!"
He was confused about why we had to get a larger size when he always gets 11s, but once we got the right size he didn't care.

I've taken these on a few long runs an I have no complaints. The Nimbus feels a bit more cushioned than some other models. I would recommend

Bought these as a gift for my husband. He loves Asics and how they fit. He wears a 7.5 shoe but takes an 8 in these. He really liked the carbon/black/silver color.

About 4 years ago I developed Plantar Fasciitis from running in some older shoes, gaining weight, and not having ran in a while. Tried multiple brands and the Gel-Nimbus are the only ones that have eliminated the heel pain when running. If your heavier like I am but still want to run and get in shape, this is great shoe. This is the third pair of Gel-Nimbus shoes that I've had and I'll buy another pair when mine give out.
P.S. They are durable, but I took two pair to a police academy and they were destroyed from that type of PT.

Bought these for my husband and the last two years he has had to size up from his usual 10.5 to a size 11. Otherwise he’s been happy with them. He does use these for running on a daily basis.

This is my second pair of GEL-Nimbus 20’s (both purchased from Zappos). I said moderate arch support because I have plantar fasciitis and able to use the ASICS insert as well as my orthotic. I run on the road as well as use a treadmill. I like them better for the treadmill but for the road i personally need a bit more cushion. Since the winter is coming and outdoor temps aren’t great for running. I have no complaints. I like this sneaker very much.

I am an above knee amputee (motorcycle accident) so it’s important and difficult to find shoes that give the support I need. I’ve only had these for two days but I’m walking so much better in them than any other shoes I’ve tried. They are lightweight and flexible enough to work with my prosthesis while helping with my balance. I’ve found my new everyday shoes.

I LOVE these shoes. I am a woman with wide forefoot and these shoes are PERFECT! This is my 3rd pair of ASCICS and the best of the 3. They are light and have great cushioned insole. I wish they were not so pricey. Nevertheless, I am ordering another pair so I am sure to have them when these wear out. I play tons of pickleball and shoes wear out pretty quickly.
