Great shoe for walking. Usually walk 10-12 miles at a time twice a week. Was looking for good fit, good support with a cushion....and great looks. This fit all categories.

Only had the shoes for two weeks, but love the feeling of support, snugness, especially in the heel and can walk all day without foot pain.

Excellent for running trails and road- I have a bunion and this shoe allows me long distances without pain. I have run in Asics for years.

Very comfortable - extra cushion is great for running! I feel like they run slightly small, I would have gone up a half size if I knew beforehand.

This is my third pair. Good shock absorption and support. The shoe wears very well. I buy the "wide" version because I have bunions and the shoes are very comfortable.

Love these shoes! They fit just how I expected. Great for running and walking. And I've never bought such a dark color before but the color looks great, love the black and white.

I had two surgeries on my left foot in the last 18 months. So I was looking for a shoe that's stiff but comfortable. I picked these shoes for that reason. They are great shoes for walking. I didn't need to break them in and I am now able to walk 10,000 steps per day.

FIve Stars=I think this is my second pair of the Baked Pink GEL-NIMBUS 2. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH. I got about 296 miles in before I noticed my knees and arches aching. They still feel very cushioned so I am keeping them for walks and other low impact things.
Three Stars= I wanted to change colors for my next pair and ordered the Illusion Blue. Right away I noticed that the toe box was a lot wider and the whole shoe felt bigger. It's the exact same size as the pink but a completely different fit. Not sure what the heck is going on, but in the future when I find a shoe I like I guess I'll have to stick with the same color every time.

I love the gel nimbus. I have foot problems with having no arch and these shoes are the best for that

I absolutely love the nimbus! I am a half marathoner and would not run in anything else. Great support for my high arch. Started with the Nimbus 12 and still in love!

This is the first running shoe that has ever fit my feet perfectly. I have a very low instep, somewhat narrow width feet, and a narrow heel. Usually I have to make do with shoes that are too short if they aren't going to flop around in the front. These fit like a glove, and are very well-cushioned without being "mushy".

I have been wearing the Gel Nimbus for years (as have so many others - see other reviews) & after trying other brands, the Asics Nimbus are the definitely the best! I can run or walk for miles in this shoe while getting continued comfort & support from it! Thank you for increasing the cushion in the sole in the 21 like previous versions (18 & prior) had - amazing! Great arch support (so important for our feet) as well & lightweight! Asics is an awesome brand & no matter what shoe type I purchase for other sports/ working out, I am never disappointed!

These shoes are great for people who supinate. I run a little, but my primary reason for wearing these shoes is for group fitness classes that involve kickboxing and HIIT classes. This is my second pair of gel nimbus and my feet feel very supported.

Love this shoe because of the stability it provides. Base is wide but not ridiculous looking, although I wish it wasn’t white to show dirt easily. Comfortable from first use. It’s the first shoe, including other models of ASICS, that I didn’t have to wear an additional arch support. Very happy and it was reasonably priced in comparison to other sellers.

I bought these shoes in November 2019 and have been wearing them ever since. I am a moderate runner and run anywhere from 2-4 miles during workouts. Prior to these shoes, I ran in the Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 35s. I prefer these shoes much more! They're incredibly light and comfortable. My feet don't overheat and the shoes are snug, but I don't feel squished in them. I also wear these shoes when I go to BODYPUMP (strength endurance training) and haven't had any issues.
