I have a very big foot (13 extra wide) and the 13EEEE fit great. No overhang over the soul of the shoe. I also like the ankle support. So many running shoes have gone the the minamalist style, and this shoe actually supports the foot and ankle, but isn't too heavy.

Over the years, my feet have changed. Used to wear a 9-10 in a 'normal' width. Tried these on at Dick's. The 'WIDE' felt comfortable; loved the cushioning in the sole of the Gel Nimbus 20...and in an 11.5! Dick's did not have an 11.5/wide anything. Went online, found them at Zappo's, and for $35 less than Dick's. Hello... Love ya, Zappo's!

This is my 4th pair of the Nimbus. I buy them because I have a wide foot with a very high arch, the 4E gives me the room I need. I also buy them for the comfort, not for running, couple of bad knees. This version 20 seems to be a tad bit tighter than the 18's that I had before but are still in my range. I purchased the carbon/black/silver and was pleasantly surprised when they arrived, much cooler looking than I was expecting.

I estimate this to be my 15th purchase of the Asics Gel Nimbus and this may be the best version yet. The Nimbus has superior comfort and performance. I especially like the raised and padded tongue. It adds a little flare to already awesome shoe.

I bought the nimbus 20, after my other nimbus shoes were worn down. I love the improved fit, the cushion is just right, and the shoe laces are also amazing they are tight but comfortable. I love running in this 20's.

I really enjoy everything about these shoes. I loved them so much that I ordered another pair for a spare. My wife has a similar model Nimbus 19. She loves hers also.

After my GEL-Nimbus 18's started to wear at the toe box (after hundreds of miles of running -- super-durable!), I went to reorder and sadly discovered that that model was discontinued -- happens ALL the time. So I crossed my fingers and ordered the GEL-Nimbus 20. TWICE. So far (a few weeks), they are very comfortable, the 4E is roomy for my wide feet, the jet black color looks excellent with my running tights (for me looking great = running well; yes, I am vain...), and they provide a very stable foot-to-surface experience. Road Runner was offering this model at $159.99, Zappos was $99.99. Guess which one I picked. The moral of the story is: when you find that perfect pair of running shoes, buy multiple pairs because I can GUARANTEE you that that model will be discontinued in 6 months leaving you scrambling for an alternative.

Great shoes! I normally wear a size 10. For running I get a Half size bigger (10.5). For these I needed to get a size 11.

My brother wears a 9.5 and I always go a half size up for the nimbus. I got him a 10 and they were perfect. Toe box could be a bit higher.

The Gel Nimbus 20 is an excellent shoe, but in the extra wide size (8.5 - 4E) it comes in only one color - black. I'm SURE all the people who bought this size would also gladly buy an extra pair or two in another color.

I have Plantar Fasciitis, high arches, very wide feet, narrow heals and pronate when walking. These shoes provide relief and fit like no other shoe I have ever worn. I wear them daily and get six months out of them, not bad for a man who weighs 275. The only drawback is the (4E) width only comes in black.

I bought these for my son for Drum Corps. He loved them. They lasted nearly the entire season, which is saying a whole lot -- really. He was in them, abusing them (and his body) for something like 9 hours a day for 2 1/2 months. I am back to buy him another pair. (He also wore great-quality orthopaedic inserts, so he isn't a good judge for how good the natural arch support of the shoe is.)

Wonderful shoe. I put it on the first time and walked a mile up and down steep hills. The fit was perfect, and there was no break-in time.
