Fantastic shoe. I have 19, 20 and 21. 19 had the best ball of foot padding and I wish it would come back, but it's still my favorite workout shoe. Sturdy no matter if you are running, elliptical, bike, etc.

Great pair of sneakers. I suffer with chronic plantar fasciitis and I also have sesamoiditis in left foot. I went from Nike Lunarglide (that are not being made anymore) to these, and I wish I've found them sooner. I'm now on my 4th pair (I've been wearing them since April '19, always get two pairs at once and alternate between days since I wear my sneaks 10+ every day) and I'm hoping they'll always be available.

These shoes fit great! They're snug where they need to be. Lots of bounce is what I need.

They are very comfortable. Although they may seem a little hard in the beginning after two wears they soften and feel so cushioned and supported all around. My feet feel so secure in these shoes! I love them! The color is a bonus and they make my large shoe size look small -the pink foam which is normally white make this shoe in this style look smaller than they really are! I love them and I definitely recommend! I will continue buying ASICS Nimbus they never disappoint!!!

Got it for my mother who's constantly on her feet waitressing at a busy restaurant; her toes used to hurt in her old shoes but she says the pain is gone in these!! She can't stop raving about them.

My favorite part of the ASICS 2000 Series is that I can get a new pair and it's like I never transitioned out of the old ones. Perfect fit as always!

I have WIDE feet so finding the right walking/jogging/workout shoe has always been challenging. I have loved the GT ASICS for more than 6 years. These have ALWAYS held up and will be my go-to shoes for years to come, or until I try to upgrade again.

Love them!!! I was a die hard Kayano girl until they changed with the 25's. I have tried just about every other model searching for a pair to replace them and these fit the bill! My only request would be to make more colors in the wide.

In reading some of the other reviews, it looks like people aren't too happy with these shoes. This is my 2nd pair of this style. I really liked my first pair. I've only worn my new pair maybe 5 times, but I have no complaints. They seem to work for me!

Love these shoes. Great support. Feel a bit snug in the width but that makes them feel supportive to me. I have somewhat narrow feet but like plenty of room in the toebox, and these deliver.

Finally, the Gel-Nimbus is back, the toe box is wider and it fits more true to size!

Yes I noticed that these aren't as spongy as the 19's and 20's, but it's minimal and would not stop me from recommending these shoes. Toebox is even roomier than the 20's so watch your sizing. I would ask ASICS to put back the original cushioning of the other versions to create the perfect running shoe. This SP color scheme has gotten me many compliments while on the run.

My 4th pair of asic Gel Nimbus. I don't run, just wear them because they are the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. They correct my slight pronation issue which helps with a congenital back defect, relieving pain I suffered for years. I just wish asics would make all their women's shoes in extended sizes instead of just in a couple of styles.

This is my second pair of Asics shoes. I wore Asics GT-1000 a couple of years ago, trained for half marathon in them, loved them. Last year I just wanted to switch it up and try something different so I went with Brooks. I liked the shoes but had the worst problems with them. My spine, shins, and toes were all suffering and required multiple trips to the doctors. After doing my research, I decided to switch back to Asics and it was the best thing I could have ever done. Even though my shins were still sore from my Brooks, when I received my GT 2000-7's, I went for a run and the difference they made was unbelievable! Immediately so much better. So comfortable, and great for my overpronation. Right away I could tell they were helping with my overpronation and helping me land flat on my foot.

Great fit and feel. I over-pronate and these shoes stabilize my ankles nicely. Plus they look like money.

This is by far the BEST pair of shoes I have every had. I have about 40 pairs of shoes, mainly athletic pairs. I also stand all day at my job as a coach so I really needed good shoes for my feet. In these, my feet literally never hurt during coaching or at the end of the day. I LOVE them!

I was a little nervous as the ratings are all over the map, but I've been in my shoes now 3 weeks and I just LOVE them. Looking to get another pair, just to make sure I can make them last a long time! I did get the wide version, which makes it great.

I run between 10 to 15 miles a week and these shoes are great. I ran in the GTs 2000 6 before buying these and I would say that they offer good support, a good cushion in the heal area and the toe box is roomier. Great shoes. I do recommend them
