These are at least the 15th pair of Asics I have bought over years. The fit was very good with the Nimbus 20. The toe box was actually a little roomier than the Nimbus 19 I bought last year, which like most of my Asics purchased,I need to take them to my local shoe repair shop to stretch the box across the toes for a few days. No need for stretching with the Nimbus 20.
My only gripe with Asics is that my foot size (mens 8.5, 2E width) must be one of the less popular sizes. The only shoe color available for this size is black. I see all these great colors for other shoe sizes, and what I am paying, and think Asics could have done a whole lot better with colors. The same thing happened to me a few years ago when the only color in the size was white.

After using the Nimbus 20 I can say they are wonderful. I had previously Nossa Tri 8, 10 & 11, and these Nimbus 20 are better for long distances. They are so confortable and have a good cushion in the sole.

I have been buying the Nimbus shoes for years. Because I officiate soccer and need to have an all black shoes, I purchased 3 pairs, and they have saved my knees when running over 28 miles per week. These are a must if you are running.

I've worn Nike for 30+ years and increasingly over that time I've noticed a decline in their quality and comfort. Recently, I visited a mall with numerous other shoe sellers (Nike, Adidas, Puma, Reebok, etc). I literally tried them all, and came away disappointed. Then my sister recommended the Asics. Amazing! Being older, my feet aren't what they used to be, but these shoes make my feet feel ten years younger. Thank you!

Bought these cause they were listed on a website that they are good for plantar fasciitis. I've been able to walk with very little discomfort because of these shoes.

I have been wearing Gel-Nimbus since I can remember. These fit and fell great. I normally go through at least a pair of running shoes a year and always go with these.

this is a comfortable shoe that comes in wide sizes. Like the wearability of the Nimbus. Wish Asics would add a 4E to their tennis specific shoes.

Perfect fit for my custom orthotics and comfy for casual use. Heel area of outsole was really stiff at first but has softened and/or I've gotten used to it. Runs true to size with other athletic shoes

I bought my first pair in Florida while we on vacation. They were so comfortable that I wanted another pair in a different color.

These shoes are super comfortable. Believe in their gel technology, the ride begins to feel squishy after a few miles but nothing that interrupts the run.

This is the 4th pair of Nimbus that I have owned starting with the 19's. Love these shoes. I started wearing them after issues with Achilles tendonitis. I have upped my miles and never had an issue with Nimbus shoes.

Listen I hate running I hate cardio in general, but sometimes it's not because the action or the movement it's because my feet hurt. I'm not gonna say it's like walking on a cloud in heaven or that it's a spa day while running the Boston marathon. These shoes work for me as a person that hates running I would happily run for survival, but since zombies are fake and bears are wusses, I will happily walk in these shoes all day every day until a zombear appears then I may skip away from the problem.

I work 12hour shifts as a nurse and have gotten really bad foot/back pain in the past few years. I also have neutral/high arches that require really good support. I got the Gel Nimbus 18's and loved them. Got the 20's after more than a year and love them also! Great arch support and heel shock absorption, definitely what I needed. I did have to size up 1/2 a size from my Gel Nimbus 18's. Love em!

I've been wearing Nimbus since the 7, the top 3 ever have been the Nimbus 11, 18 & 20. They went back to a similar fit to the 18s. They are a bit smaller than the 20s with the new mesh, but they still feel great. The 19s I felt were such a step backwards, the 20s feel like the 18s with new mesh, lighter weight, and just a hair smaller. I've been selling footwear since 2006, for where I sell, the 20s are one of the most popular shoes I've ever sold. Great job Asics, LOVE everything about it. Best. Nimbus. Ever!

I've been wearing the Nimbus for probably 20+ years, but I thought I was done with it after the Nimbus 19. It was one of the worst shoes I've ever worn. I had begun searching for alternatives and then decided to give the 20 a chance. I ordered my usual size (10.5) and a half size larger (11). The 11 is perfect! I should note that I've never worn an 11 in any kind of shoe. I don't know if this strategy will work for everyone, but it might be worth a try. I am SO happy! I feel like I've been reunited with an old friend. The shoe is extremely comfortable and has provided many miles of running enjoyment. I intend to order several more pairs so I can enjoy this great shoe for years to come.
