The reviews said to size up a half size. I normally wear 6.5 M in almost any shoe, so I got a 7. It was perfect. I bought the weirdly colorful ones, because they were out of traditional plain white in my size. No problem; I’m wearing them to exercise, not match outfits. That being said, they’re actually pretty cool looking anyway—they were kinda my first choice just for the novelty. As to comfort for exercising, ASICS gel Nimbus is an excellent, highly padded shoe. The knee and hip pain I was experiencing with Hoka is greatly diminished, and I expect that to continue. This is a very nice shoe and highly recommended.

I have been a runner most of my life. I’m in my early 50’s now with very low mileage due to other concerns but my feet and knees are still great. These shoes are perfect for my neutral stride and slim feet. I haven’t had any over heating concerns and the soles are padded just right.
I feel lucky.

These are my new happy shoes. I wear a 7 regular shoe, 7.5 running shoe, and these fit perfectly. Light weight, feel stable without being stiff. I do have to raise the arch a little bit, but I have super-high arches. Love these so much I got a second pair to switch off.

These shoes help so much with my plantar fasciitis. It’s like walking on clouds. No pain! Better than the Brooks. I tried one in each foot to compare. So thankful to find such a comfortable and stylish tennis shoe.

Fit is great but could not handle the color so exchanged for the gray.

Finally they have fixed the messed up sizing and are back to the “18” and before comfort. I’ve worn Asics for over 10 years and loved until the 19’s came out and have not liked again until now (these are 23’s). The colors are fun and although they were more expensive, I will pay for comfort and feel these (so far) have been worth it. They still run1/2 size small, so order up

Took a gamble on these and so glad I did! I have a high arch and was looking for support and comfort. These do not disappoint. I wear an 8 and ordered an 8 and they are true to size. Very happy! Highly recommend.

A tad longer in the toebox than the previous model. Looks good, feels good.

I love ASICS the most comfortable footwear for healthcare workers who spend countless hours on your feet. These feel like walking on air super happy with the arch support and fit.

I wear a 7.5 in Nike Pegasus. The 8 in this ASICS fits great. I feel like I have a teeny bit mor room in the toe but I prefer it. Nice cushion to it. I was looking for a replacement to the Pegasus after 37 years of Pegasus. Aesthetically the ASICS is much more pleasing to me.

I have loved this model for years but was a little disappointed with the last 2 versions. Well the 23 more than makes up for it. I walk about 3 Mike’s a day and gave hip issues. These shoes fit me like a glove abd are super comfortable. I do have a narrow foot so if you have a super wide foot three bay not work for you. Overall well worth the money

Love how they feel. I can wear them for a 12+ hour shift without aching feet by the end. People stop me often to compliment me on the color of my shoes. They make me smile for so many reasons!

I use to run regularly and since my head injury and occipital nerve damage I can't walk short distances even. This shoe allows me to get out and walk again without feeling every step radiate through the base of my head it's amazing plus it's great support for running if I could run. My husband owns some too for running and he loves them.

Finally!! Asics has finally gotten back to the 18 (and before) release feeling. I have loved Gel-nimbus for so long, then not--after the 18. They were making the shoe too narrow and toe case was smaller and the colors were boring. These 23's are FINALLY up to snuff. They are pricey but cheaper than podiatry and I look forward to many step classes, gym workouts and walks in these.

I purchased these six months postpartum and after realizing that none of my favorite shoes fit the same. This is the first pair of ASICS I've purchased since wearing Gel Sagas in the 1990s! So, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and the comfort. It's a cute style and while my feet have grown a little, these definitely look cute in a 7.5. I also bought them with the hope of starting to run and I needed the arch support. After a lot of research, I narrowed my choices down to this shoe and the Nimbus 23. I chose this one.

Love the fit and feel of these shoes. I ordered a size larger than my normal shoe size to accommodate for socks and because most sneakers run small. These are very comfortable. I love them! I wish they came in more colors.
