Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Nimbus® 21

Great running shoe, very comfortable, light and fits perfect. I have worn the Gel-Nimbus line for five years and this shoe does not disappoint.

I have tried many shoes and this is the only one that really fits my feet. I have no arches and this shoe is the most comfortable one I have ever found. Wouldn't buy any other running shoe.

So I've been using ASICS running shoes for over 5 years now. The Gel-Nimbus has been the go to model. Listen, the shoes are amazing. I'm a heavy stumper and my doctor told me to use running shoes with good support. The Gel-Nimbus model was the solution. I run 3 to 4 miles everyday and I can't even begin to imagine doing that without this shoes. They provide great support, comfort and ventilation and they are durable. So, if you are looking for good running shoes, well look no further; you have just found them.

Always return to Asics when i've tried other shoes.

Shoes always fit true to size, comfortable from the first try and finally found a color/style that if fitting for Senior Citizens.

Best shoe I've ever had. Cushy, good balance. Just great.

I'm an older runner (50s) and really appreciate the combination of cushion and light weight. My previous shoes were Asics Cumulus and these are just that little bit softer without adding any noticeable weight. Great for the daily, paced runs.

They aren't quite as comfortable as my old Nimbus shoes..... they are a little uncomfortable around my heel. They also don't feel like they have as much cushion as my old ones did either. These are about $50 cheaper, so maybe that made a difference?

Been wearing these since Nimbus 9 (at least). Great shoe with modest improvements every year. Note that in the last couple of years they changed sizing and I'm up 1/2 size

This is a very well made shoe. It fits well and provides excellent support all over.

I've always been a Asics fan and wore their shoes since high school in cross country and throughout any type of running events. And everytime I wore a different brand, it never lives up, causes pain and discomfort. And even if it does, it doesn't last as long. Because of running, I've developed achilles tendonitis. Went on google search and found Gel-Nimbus 21 is one of the top choices for achilles tendonitis. Been using this for a few days now and my pain seems to be going away while I continue to train. Lots of pros - feels like a glove, comfortable, always quality, and doesn't cause any pain or tendonitis flare after training. Amazing what difference shoes can make.

Perfect...........................................

Best shoe I have ever owned, it is stable and comfortable.

Good cushioning and comfort. I have been using this model for many years and continue to appreciate the comfort, style, and craft of the shoe.

My go-to shoes for my half marathons. And a great color selection as well so you can look cool and be comfortable at the same time while running.

Great shoe! Fits true to size feels like you are running on pillows!

I bought these as a back-up for the pair I already have as they are the best walking shoe I have owned. I did not want to have to replace mine and find they were not available.

Just like the ASICS I remember from the old days. Gel front and back. Fit perfectly and were comfortable right away. I don't jog anymore, but walk, but these are great for either. And, since they were last year's model, they were HALF off, which was very, very reasonable.

I use these for walking and casual use, they are very very comfortable, very cushiony! They were a good value for the sale, couldn't pass up!

Great running shoe. Try to get it at 40 to 0% off because it's pricey. Great support and cushion.

I was looking for a shoe for working out in and walking, not an avid runner but still do a lot of cardio. These feel great, and have great balance as I tend to lean on the outside of my feet. Has been a great shoe for my high impact workouts, and great comfort when walking. I would buy these again for sure. My last pair took a beating for a year and held up very well, good quality.

My 2nd pair. Extremely comfortable running shoe. I have wide feet and these do the job.

I've dealt with chronic foot and ankle pain since the age of 10, some of it was due to plantar fasciitis, during high school football and jobs that kept me on my feet and pulling heavy loads, it was chronic ankle pain. Starting in my early 30s I finally had enough and started searching for the right shoe. Knowing that some of the lower priced Asics models I wore for running in high school agreed pretty well with my feet keeping shin splints and pain in check, I started working through some of the higher end Asics models. Once I tried the Nimbus a few years ago, I was hooked. Foot and ankle related pain are a thing of the past. For a little extra cushioning inside the shoe, I replace the factory insoles with the Athlete insert from Sof Sole. If you are an under pronator, as the name of the shoe implies, the Nimbus is like walking on a cloud.

This is my fifth pair of gel nimbus, switching from a few decades of Nike Air. These have proven better for my feet.

This is my third pair of the 21s. These are the best Nimbus in a while. I've been running in them for about 8 years and have done a few marathons in them over the years and these are at the top.
