Just started running long distance and I needed a great running shoe. Was willing to pay whatever the price as long as my feet were happy. These shoes feel as if I'm running on a cloud, I can not run in another shoe. In the beginning my ankle Bone was a little raw from the shoe but after two runs my shoes were broken in and more than perfect! Love this cushion support.

I normally wear a 7, but know I am a solid 7.5 in this sneaker.

Tried 3 other ASICS and these were the ones I kept. They run narrow compared to other ASICS running shoes. I got an 8.5 wide and I normally wear an 8.5. Last time I had my feet measured I was told I’m in between on widths and it depends on the shoe. That said I tried another style of ASICS in wide and they were much wider than these. Also for reference I wear an 8 in brooks running shoes.
Bonus: Zappos has a 30 day Runlimited Guarantee, you can wear your running shoes and still have a chance to return if they don’t work!

Switched from Nike to ASICS and couldn't be happier. Working in the hospital long hours is hard on my feet but the gel nimbus has been an instant fix for my foot pain.

this is the most comfortable pair of athletic shoes I have ever had. I have an orthotic, it fits fin and the cushion and comfort is outstanding

Usually wear 9 1/2 in Nimbus.
Had to go up to 10. Better fit length wise. Was a little too wide, however I have a narrow foot. I loved the shoe once I got the right size. Loved the color! I even bought two pair! Customer Service was excellent!

It is difficult to find athletic shoes with a good fit for people with a narrow foot. This is my second pair of ASICS and I am again totally satisfied with the fit and quality of the shoe. My last pair lasted two years so the higher price is worth it.

Very comfortable but supportive for running. Good sole that is easy on impact.

Love the durability and support I feel when I wear these sneakers. They do give me a god two inches of height which is odd, but not a bad thing. Not heavy, just a lot of shoe so it's a good but interesting transition from a lighter workout shoe such as a Nike.

No one can beat the full foot padding in the gel-nimbus. Cost a lot, but I buy the previous model when new models come out. I usually buy at least 2-3 at a time. Love the variety of colors. I like to match my shoes with my outfits, hence I usually have 4 different colors to choose from. Yes, sounds girly, but I DO wear them all until they need to be replaced, so why not??

I LOVE my new sneakers! Seriously thinking about ordering another pair now before they are no longer around!
I walked around NYC for hours in them right out of the box and they were like walking on a cloud with amazing support. Can't say enough. I have a slightly wide foot, usually wear a 9 and ordered a 9 1/2.

I really like these shoes. They are very comfortable and my foot feels supported. They are soft but not squishy like some shoes that I've worn lately. I like that I can remove the insole and put my own orthodics in. The base is wide, so I don't feel like I am going to roll my ankles if the ground isn't flat. And I've received several compliments on the look (I have the Black/Pink).

I live the gel nimbus 21. I have 5 pairs. I have plantar fasciitis and these are the only shoes that don't cause pain.

I bought these July of 2019 and have been running on them ever since. This is the third pair of Asics running shoes that I have owned and they are by far the best of the 3. I run anywhere from 1-6 miles on them a day. They aren't too heavy, and when i'm running on the pavement they offer a lot of comfort to my feet. Would definitely recommend!!!

Best shoes ever! I suffer from back pain and needed a good shoe since im on my feet all day for work and these are awesome. I previously had a pair that I wore for about 5 years and had to purchase another after they finally wore out.

I've worn Asics exclusively for working out for years, and the GEL-Nimbus is by far my favorite style. It has plenty of support, is comfortable right out of the box and is good looking. I wore my new GEL-Nimbus 21 (Icy Mint/Black - nice combo) for the first time yesterday for strength training, treadmill work and Zumba. It was perfect for all three. I highly recommend Asics and highly recommend the GEL-Nimbus 21. As always with Asics, order up a half-size. Thanks, Zappo, for excellent service - of coursel!
