The heel support in this show is quite aggressive and is causing me irritation / blisters around the achilles area.

Please have better color choices, I bought 2000 because of better color choice but the nimbus color choices are horrible. What happened?

I have worn the Gel-Nimbus for years. The 22's are an improvement over the 21's, but I am wearing an older Gel Nimbus insole for better cushioning and rebound. Whole 22 has a harder walking experience for me.
If you add your own insole, it's going to make a tighter fit!

I Nimbus.... faithful to this shoe for years, even with the changes. However, the colors??? Why Asics? Look around at competitors color choice...who is designing your color choice?

This was my 3rd pair of this shoe. Loved 19 and 20 but had to take the inserts out of an old pair to help with comfort. Very disappointed in the feel but they do look nice

I ordered the wide width and the toe box was too narrow for my feet. I gave them to my daughter, who does not usually buy the wide width and they were perfect. I wore Gel Nimbus for many years, but for the last few releases I can't wear them. It's Hoka for me. Please go back to a wider width.

I liked the cushioning on this version, but after only a few weeks of wearing them the back of my left heel on the inside had a big indentation on it, like it broke down. It seems like they should hold up better than that. Disappointing. Also top of right shoe has a pressure point I have not experienced in any other running shoe.

Fine when putting on but killing my feet when running. This was recommended by the running store and ASICS, and version 16 were my favorite shoe. Not sure why this doesn't work but could be personal to me.

I've been buying the Gel Nimbus for at least 5 years and this is by far the worst style. The 22 doesn't have nearly the same support as previous styles. I'm very disappointed in this style. They have become my yard/work shoes and now I have to spend money on a new pair. Might have to look at another brand.

The footbed is cushioned very well, however the arch support on the GEL-Nimbus 22 (D) is poor. The outside of the shoe is designed to look like it has support with a plastic bar, but the inside is the complete opposite. The insole is constructed out of thin black foam The Cumulus 21 (D) uses thicker blue foam for the insole and the

I first purchased this shoe in regular width, but it was too narrow for my wide feet. I returned the first pair and bought a second pair in wide width, but it is not any wider. Not a good shoe at all for those of us with wide feet.

They fit but the cushion is too much for my flat feet . They make my heel hurt when I take them off. The sneakers have potential but I like how the cushion in the kayano 26-27 feels better for my flat feet.

I really love ASICS. They are my favorite shoe and usually very sturdy. These are very comfortable and I'm glad they come in wide sizes. But after only a few months after purchase not only does one shoe have a giant hole in it on the top and to the side but the other shoe is starting to get a hole in the same spot. I never had this issue with my kayano set I had for 5 years. I'm very confused as the low quality of this one.

I ordered these because they were recommended for my gait but am feeling pain in my heels and soles.

I went through 2 pair of the Nimbus 21's during COVID. The 22 is stiffer than the 21 or 23. I returned the 22's.

I have been wearing the gel Nimbus for many years. This year I purchased my next pair and they are not as cushioned as years before. I will begin to look for another brand to buy.

Meh - I won't buy this one again. There is a decent ball of foot and heel support, but zero arch support. The shoe structure is also very thick and clunky, so it's pretty difficult to feel the need to run and be light-footed. It may work with some inserts, but I'm just not impressed at all. I will be going with the cumulus and/or the Kayano.

Always have brought ASICS and no previous problems, however I have now found the quality disappointing. These came up narrower than previous styles, although I did go up half a size bigger. I'm using them to train for a marathon and they have already split in the toe area after 6 months. The cushioning has gone and long miles now given me problems with my feet and recovery time for legs are longer. They are also not the lightest trainer for putting in the miles and start to feel heavy on the feet. A lot of money I now feel is wasted.

Run large compared to other ASICS, large toe box. Not a great running shoe.

I bought my GEL-Nimbus 22 shoes in November 2020 and began wearing them in December 2020. I love the fit and comfort. In April of 2021, the top material across the toes began splitting in many places. This is my fourth pair of GEL-Nimbus shoes but this is the first time I have encountered the material splitting. Hope this can be addressed soon.

Not impressed about the change in the shoe. Love the nimbus 21. The 22 does not have the arch support or the wide heel. I have worn the 21 for four years. Got to find a new shoe.

The cushion was not as expected and the inside of the shoes rubbed the outer toes on both feet. Would have returned if my daughter hadn't used the box as a bird house. Lol.

The shoe is stiffer than what I'd thought. My feet starting to hurt for long distance running.
