I have always love my nimbus shoes but the last couple times I have tried another shoe to see if there is something else I like out there. Went back to this shoe because I didn't find anything comparable. These shoes for me felt like home. Comfortable and very supportive for my feet!

These are cute and functional shoes but I have very narrow feet and my size is between 8.5 and 9. I ordered these in 8.5 and the width was perfect but for daily walking they felt a bit short. I'm going to try a 9 and hopefully it won't be wider with the 1/2 size increase. But with ASICS, my go-to shoe, I find that the sizes vary a bit with each new production model, so I just have to be willing to try on shoes, send them back, and resize if necessary. Luckily Zappos is the BEST for doing this easily and quickly.
I'd also recommend:

I have been wearing these for years. Love the fit and support. So glad you returned to a choice of neutral colors. Even though I am still walking at 66...I prefer to avoid the bright yellow and greens...thank you for years of supporting me.

These shoes are very comfortable. In fact, I bought a second pair, so that when the first one is worn out, I have immediately a new pair of the same comfort!

Love these shoes. Very comfortable and supportive. I had the Nimbus 17 for years. Agree with the reviews that they are running smaller now. I ordered a half size up and they fit perfect.

Having a wider toe box makes all the difference and helped me run a trail run/ hike 13.1 right out of the box! Wish more stores carried wides but quick delivery will keep me coming back!

Perfect fit in my usual size of sneaker. Finally,Asics has gotten back to being a comfortable shoe, with good arch support and cushioning. These were recommended to me by my orthopedist as a good neutral shoe for support and stability.

Love my new Asics!!! I had tried switching to Nike running shoes with my last shoe purchase and I'm so glad to be back in my Asics! I can tell a huge difference in my running.

I'm very pleased with this sneaker. I have a thin foot and cannot walk barefoot for long before I have foot pain. These feel very comfortable and are supportive for walking and cardio exercise at the gym. They hold up well and I'd buy another pair in the future.

I like these shoes and especially like the color; black and gold. I think they're sold out of this color now. I wear orthotics in my shoes and they barely fit in this shoe. I took a chance this time as Zappos had a recommended size, so I tried it which is half a size smaller than what I usually purchase. I decided to keep the shoes and am glad I did. I've been buying Gel-Nimbus for years and they work for me.

This is my second pair of gel-nimbus 21. I have many other asics shoes from previous years. I like that the shoe is narrow as I have a narrow foot. It has decent arch support.
