Pretty comfortable right out of the box. However, I couldn't give it 5 stars, because even though I got my normal size (9) and chose the wide width, it runs small and it's not particularly wide. The sizing seems off. This was also the case with previous iterations of the Nimbus. Make it wider, please!

Asics shoes Kayano's NOW NIMBUS Gel's are always to big for me in my size. So these Gel nimbus 23's are to small. My toe feels like it is going to pop out of the toe box. They are also tight which I read one other review saying they run small and the tightness will loosen up. HOPE SO.....don't know what to do. About reordering size up or size 1/2 up. So different fitting. Saw only one review that agreed ran small. Any remarks?

I've been wearing Gel-Nimbus shoes for a long time, and they are not consistent in their comfort level. The 23's are much better than 20's or 21's. More like my favorite 18's.

I'm not sure if there's been a redesign, but the toe bed was really narrow and I could not get a comfortable fit even though I've used Gel Nimbus before.

Shoes are very comfortable & fit true to size. I only wish the material was a little more durable. Overall, very pleased with my purchase.

I love these shoes I just wish that either they did make them in a wide width size.

This shoe runs very small, I had to size up a full size just like I do with nikes. Also this shoe was very uncomfortable at first. Once you break it in though this shoe is amazing. For my long shifts at the hospital on my feet I can't wear anything else. The padding on this shoe is so nice. Also I get lots of compliments on this shoe. I have the bright blue. I also had the yellow which I liked but it got very dirty the first time I wore literally just walking to my car so that was a downside. If you can get a size that fits good I would definitely recommend this shoe.

Nice shoe with that little added arch support and cushion. Bottoms wear down a little quickly for those of us hitting the pavement. Could use a little less tendency to be on the outside of the foot to make them perfect.

I need to order a wide. It felt good and I was very happy with the style, but it was just a little bit narrow for me. Need to order a wide.

Nice shoe, but I think it runs a little small and narrow. There is a lot of support on the outer arch, which I need, but it was a little too stiff for me. I went with Brooks Glycerin.

I have a wide forefoot and regular heel. I normally wear 10.5B in shoes and tried these in 11B. They were too tight and my toe hit the edge of the shoe. I ordered 11W and 11.5B. Both fit well, but the 11W seemed to have more support and a deeper heel cup. So I went with the 11W. I walked three miles in them and they were very comfortable. I like these shoes. They have a nice amount of cushioning and support. So far, so good. I hope this helps someone :)

I like these shoes for the comfort that the "ortholite foam insoles" provide. I'm not sure what to say about the size, as I usually a 91/2 narrow in "regular" shoes, and a 10 in athletic shoes; however, the last pair of ASICS GEL-Nimbus I had was a 101/2. They ended up being too small, so I am now wearing 11s. They are definitely wide enough, and I THINK the length will be fine. So, they are a half-size larger than my last pair, but they seem to feel OK so far.

True to size, though slightly narrow in the talls. Well made, I walk 5 miles a day and they last about 6 months until I wear them down. Good arch support. they are very light but offer the right amount of support. I'll buy them again!

They are a little shorter than previous versions. I even bought .5 size larger. More narrow too. So buy bigger than you usually buy. Still more comfortable than most shoes. I walk about 5 miles a day and am able to do it in these shoes.

Very comfortable running shoe. The toe box is roomy, protecting the toes. It’s like running on a cloud. I highly recommend this shoe

I'm on my feet all day and the Nimbus 23 are very comfortable. I've had several Nimbus xx and some are comfortable and some have not been. These are winners.

These shoes fit comfortably right out of the box. The arch support was as good as it can be in a sport shoe. I do always wear an insert because I have higher arches than most people. The big difference I noticed right away is that the sole is much more flexible than the Gel-Nimbus-22. This is good and not-so-good. It good because is an easier shoe for me to do aerobics. But it is not-so-good because your foot feels every movement and is not as protected from the pounding on the floor. That being said, I do like these shoes and I am going to keep them.

Switched over from Brooks Ghost because I was sick of all the boring colors. So far, VERY happy with the support and comfort of the shoe. I do think they run a tiny bit bigger than a Brooks, but without being able to try a half size smaller it is hard to say for sure.
