I bought theses as a nurse working in NYC on a covid unit. Before these shoes, my legs and feet hurt so bad. Even with compression socks, i hurt terrible. Since wearing these my legs and feet dont hurt. They are amazing.

I first started wearing Gel-Tribucos in 2008, and they were the best trail runners. Since around 2012, ASICS has experimented with many revisions to this shoe, none of them good so far. This time around, the toe box is too narrow and the shoe feels stiff. These look more like earlier iterations, so I was really hoping ASICS had gone full circle, but no such luck.

Reorder these for a half size bigger and they fit great, I wear usually a 7, but they were right in the toe box area. The color combination is awesome and the grip is very nice, can’t wait to start using this on my trail walks and hikes. Delivery was fast despite what is currently going on in today’s world. Always will be a fan of Zappos, great service. Zappos Rock!

The 7 was a mess. In fact I would still like my money back. The 8.... nailed it. No more farting noise from poorly designed soles. Softer rubber. Better inner sole construction. Great toe box. Attractive design. Now if we could only get the people at Asics to step out of the horrible color combinations they create and that have held their brand back for 20 years! This style of shoe has been done before, but doing it so perfectly should jot he overlooked. Bought so many pairs of these for my closet that ill he wearing them for years. P.S. Asics designers... yes. All the same color, because once in a while you get color right, and i couldn't risk waiting for the next color and it being horrid looking, therfore missing out on the opportunity to stock up. You folks really should hire me. You have needed color advice for so long that, heck I'd work for free just to see some actual evolution.

I usually fall between an 8.5 and a 9 in athletic shoes and this one was too small for comfort. Might have been better in a 9 but hard to say since I opted to keep my Danner 2650s instead.
Pros: love the colors and style, lightweight
Cons: tight toe box, tight heel, felt stiff

OMG! Best shoe ever. I already knew I would have to pay for comfort. But these are truly comfortable. Supported my ankles while working. I’m a PIT driver in a warehouse so I stand pretty much for 10 hours pulling products. These did not give way. My feet were not overworked as in previous shows that did not support any part of me. Thank you! Will be buying another pair. And they LOOK good also.

I run trails often and have worn many brands. These shoes surpassed my expectations. They are comfortable and grip well.

These were perfect until I found a cut in them. whatever it was that punctured them, should have stabbed my foot as well.

Fit like a dream. I've been wearing Asics forever and these are the most comfortable style and so cool; throw back to the 80s. I get tons of compliments and as a Nursing Director, I walk all over the hospital, so I need top-notch footwear. I highly recommend!

Asics all the way!

I've never had better trail running shoes. This specific style is my go to shoe for trail running, street running, and hiking. It's the best in my book

Love! I love the ASICS Nimbus for my everyday walking shoe, but needed something for off road trails. They have the same great support as the nimbus but also great grips on the bottom for trials. I have worn it both on trials and pavement and so comfortable!

Ahhhmazing! I bought these for a trip to Zion and Bryce Canyon. They were perfect for all of our hiking activities. I have a narrow foot, and these felt secure and stable.

I ran some mid distances in variant trails with these shoes. The traction is pretty awesome and the shoes are super comfortable! The sleek colors are definitely a nice plus as well.

Super comfy! Great shoe for trail running and have used as a light hiker as well! Plenty of traction even on wet terrain. Looking forward to many more miles with these!

Great trail runner. Not to be worn as a cross trainer pavement to dirt. Great support and yet flexible. I pronate when i run and ASICS as usual stop that.

Firm support but still has enough cushion in heel to feel comfortable. Nice grippy sole too. I suffer from plantar fasciitis and in these ASICS I can stride out more comfortably and walk/hike longer.
