Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Nimbus® 21

I am really disappointed in these shoes. I have owned at least 10 pairs of Asics and my size is always 9 1/2. These shoes are too small and I cant return them since I took the tags off.

After just 10 days of wear, the balls of the shoe-both sides-have worn down drastically. (I'm a walker, not a runner.) I've not had this issue before, so it's unusual. The rest of the shoe is holding up fine.

Most of the shoe is coming apart. I've only had for a month.

Asics changed the fit - these are not anything like the gel-nimbus of years past. They are very stiff and rigid, blistering my back heel, and cutting off circulation to my foot after twenty minutes of use.

Have two stars because the heel of the shoe and around the ankle are tight. True to size though. Very nice looking shoe. It didn't help my heel pain.

These shoes are a replacement for the same uses pair I have and the fit is not the same. I ordered a wide and my toes and smashed inside the toe box now. My prior pair did not have this same issue.

I run about 30 miles a week. I bought my new shoes April 22. As of August 2, the tread is almost completely worn down flat. I run on trails and only occasionally roads. I try to conserve my running shoes just for running. Usually my shoes last 6 months, not 3 months. They are showing wear that usually takes me 6 months (of the same use pattern) to get. I have been wearing Nimbus for over 8 years now but this may be my last pair.

The sizing guide recommended sizing up to a 9.5. I typically wear an 8.5. Regrettably too big to wear comfortablyheel slips.

the shoes I got was the same size as the GT-2000 I bought about 5 years ago size 8 (my shoe size is 7-7.5) but it turned out too fit for my toes to move especially on my right foot

I love my Nimbus-19 shoes, but these one's don't feel like walking on a cloud and really tight even though I have purchased the size I always wear. Also the left shoe is really tight compared to the right, very disappointed. Will be returning unfortunately not worth the money. Thought I would be a Nimbus girl for life. Sigh!

Ordered my normal size. But these shoes were about a 1/2 size too small. My toes were super numb after walking in these for 45 minutes.

They are well made shoes but they run short. My big toes eventually hurt when pressing against top end of shoe over several hours of wear. I purposely bought them to walk long distances but that isn't going to happen.

Very uncomfortable compared to my previous Gel Nimbus. I thought that the more I wear them, the more comfortable they will be, but that is not the case. They are very tight even though they are the same size as my previous ones. Might have to switch to a different brand.

I have been wearing the GT-2000's for 15+ years & typically I love them! I have never had any issues. However, these gave me terrible blisters on the heels of both feet. I've worn other pairs of GT-2000's & never had any issues. Not sure what is different about this version? Very disappointed these didn't work out.

Had to return because they were too narrow. My feet aren't abnormally wide though.

ASICS is my favorite brand. However, this particular pair of shoes feels a little narrow or snug across my toes and are not comfortable for me. They rub my little toe and my feet hurt after wearing them for a short period. I cannot imagine going on a long walk or jog in the shoes. Very disappointed.

I love the Nimbus but this shoe is too bulky and heavy for my liking. I like to wear a stability shoe for longer, slower runs but these add too much weight.

They seem smaller than my other ASICS Sneakers of the same size. This is disappointing as it is difficult to deal with minor issues like returning expensive sneakers in the midst of a global pandemic.

These shoes just don't fit correctly. Unfortunate.

It looked and felt like a man's shoe. I exchanged it for something lighter and more feminine.

I bought these shoes only 10 days ago. They are very comfortable. However, the upper part of the shoe near the interior of the ankle on both shoes is already worn and torn. Very disappointing. I just got rid of my previous pair of gel 19s. They held up much better. I had no problems with them.

The Nimbus has great cushioning on the ball of the foot, but not a sufficient heel cup to keep heel from slipping

I have owned several pair of this model Asics shoes. I don't know what has happened with the manufacturing , but these shoes have changed and are not the same as the old ones I still have. The foot pad insert feels like cardboard. There is no memory foam cushion in these shoes. There is no arch as well. These are flat hard shoes. I am sorry for this , because these are the only running shoes I have really liked. I sent these back and will not order any more online. I will look in stores and try on any shoes I buy in the future. You cannot trust that the model or brand name will stay true to the quality they once had.

A little disappointed in this shoe for supination...
