Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Nimbus® 23

Narrow. They were clearly marked on the box and labeled on the shoes as wide, but these were narrower than a pair of regular Gel Kayanos I have.

I've bought ASICS shoes for at least the last 15 years and have run many half marathons and a marathon in then. The quality has taken a nosedive with their new redesign. The shoes are junk now. It's obvious they are using cheap glues, stickers, and thin materials now. Within a few weeks, the sticker on the tongue peeled right off and the outer parts of the sole started breaking off. A couple months in, I also started noticing holes on both sides on both shoes that looks like someone took a box cutter to my shoes. Never seen that before. After 6 months, these shoes are pretty much lawn shoes now. I used to be able to wear a pair of ASICS for 18 months without any serious problems. I bought a pair of Gel Cumulus 23s in the offseason and they were the most uncomfortable pair of shoes I've owned. The insole on those actually fell apart. Never seen that before. My wife also bought a pair of Nimbus 23s shortly after me and has the same hole problem and started developing arch pain within months, also a first for her. She's since switched to Brooks and I'm looking for another brand as well. Oh yea, and the price on these shoes keeps going up. Now they are the same price as the Gel Kayanos were a few years ago. ASICS is turning into every other disposable shoe brand out there. High prices and junk shoes. Super disappointed!

I would review it if I receive it. My orders keep getting cancelled by you guys. I switched to Nike. Air Pegasus is wonderful. Your online ordering system has deteriorated.

These shoes are the biggest departures from the last 5 designs 22-18 that I can think of. This is the first time in a while that I have to rethink my shoe choice. I have a bad back and a weird shoe size 12-4E and have worn these shoes for many years. I am now having to try and sourcing 22's until I can find a new replacement.

The ASIC Nimbus has been my primary running shoe for 12+ years. I always wear the same size so have been purchasing online to get the desired color. The GEL-NIMBUS 23 did not fil properly so I returned them and now have to find another running shoe.

Less than three weeks of indoor wear and the tread on the sole is already coming apart. I'm very disappointed in the quality of these shoes.

Very disappointed. Shoes have no support at all. Run large.

I didn't like it .. it's not how I wanted it I like it better I'm disappointed

I haven't had them for very long and the tread is already falling apart.

I was hoping to fall in love but my expectations fell short. I normally wear Hoka but my coworkers swear by Asics. So I tried this pair and wasn't impressed. The shoe doesn't provide much cushion, the tongue is too thick and the word gel doesn't come into play when actually wearing the shoe.

Something is wrong at the top of the shoes as they feel so tight that my feet hurt, even if I loosen up the laces a lot. I've been a loyal customer to ASICS and have used the Nimbus for 15 years but this model disappointed me

The model has been changed. I've run in these since model number 7. I supinate and this model has less flair than all prior models. I've been forced to switch to Brooks for now. Very disappointed.

This is the second pair of this style of shoe (different colors). On both pairs of shoes the tread comes away from the shoe! The first pair was within 3DAYS. This second pair took about two weeks. First and last time to own ASICS!!!

In less than a week the sole is coming unglued. I've bought Nimbus since the 10s and their quality has suffered to the point I'm now looking for alternatives.

Shoes do not fit compared to previous Asics purchases and appear to make my ankle unsteady. I bought the exact same size I have in two other pairs of Asics and they are not as comfortable. I have worn them for a couple of weeks now and find myself preferring to go back to shoes that are battered and torn up as they don't hurt my feet or ankles.

The rubber from the bottom of the shoe is getting unglued.

These shoes are too narrow. I have the previous 2 models of the Gel Nimbus and one can visually see the difference in the toe box which is considerably narrower. Terribly disappointed.

The Nimbus 23 is narrower than the Nimbus 22 in the toebox. I matched the soles of the 23s against the 22s and the difference is significant (and I wear a D width). They were just too narrow and I had to send them back.
