Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Nimbus® 23

I loved the ASICS Gel-Nimbus 21. The 22s did not work for me. After running out of 21s, I hoped the 23s would work. These run larger than the 21s. I kept the 8.5s which are a bit short (could be a mistake) but the 9s made me feel like I was wearing clown shoes. I have chronic tendonitis and am super sensitive about fit. Ohhhh. Wish ASICS would stop modifying the fit on every model!!!

Shoe was very cushy and comfortable but one shoe was too tight across toes and made them fall asleep.

these felt too narrow and shallow - hurt my toes even in a wide. What is going on with shoe manufacturers these days????

Anyone else having the same problem as me with this model? They click when you walk. This is my third paid and all 3 make a clicking sound while walking. People can hear me coming and going. Wearing down the bottoms doesn’t help. Other than that they’re good. Just loud. Need new ASICS.

These AR definitely not like my previous nimbus Asics sneakers. The gel is completely different and does not really carry into the inner sole of the sneaker. Did my first real walk with them yesterday and my feet hurt from the instability of the shoe. And my other nimbus sneaker is only four months old and feels completely different. I was really only looking for another color but the sneaker fits so much differently. The toe box also seems to be wider and the heel is not as tall. The colors are awesome though. I'll be sad to return them

The cushion in these shoes is amazing and I wanted to love them for that reason alone. They run small, however. I have bunions and even the wides were putting too much pressure on my feet. I would suggest sizing up a full size in these shoes.

Fit well, great support for walking; however, very pricy considering the expense and the fabric upper did not hold up long at all routinely walking ~ 2 miles per day outside on trails. I like them well enough to buy them again, but expected them to last longer given the steep price tag.

I usually wear a size 9 medium, but I ordered a 9.5 to have more room in the toe box, etc. These are very narrow. I honestly think that ordering a half size larger was not necessary because they are actually true to size in length, but are narrower than marked.

If you have narrow long feett like me I might avoid these. While they are beyond comfortable the style of the shoe looks really wide. Asics normally run narrow without needing a true narrow and while these fit ok they made my size 11.5 narrow feet look like clown shoes. As much I wanted to keep with them due to the comfort I just couldn’t. LOL.

Super bummed that Asic's quality is not what it used to be. The sole is detached from the foam and I have only worn casually for 2 months - had other things in life that didn't allow for real mileage to be realized.

I am so tired of Asics changing the way the SAME model of shoe fits! I have worn Gel Nimbus for so many years and if they would just stick to the same sizing with each change they wouldn’t have so many returns. Very frustrating

The style was not appealing

The soles on running shoes keep getting thicker and thicker. I've worn the Gel-Nimbus for many years with no problems, but this year's model is tippy and my feet are uncomfortable after I wear them for more than two hours. Big disappointment.

I have narrow feet, but these are hard to get on. They have great cushioning but are not as comfortable as the 22’s. I wish ASICS would stop messing with their shoes. Often they make the newer model less comfortable. They are still the best shoes for narrow feet.

As a former Asics fan, I find it disappointing that this brand's design and quality has deteriorated. Years ago Asics was super comfortable, cushioned, and durable. Over the last few years, however, the fit seems to be really strange with flat toe boxes that make my toes numb. Plus, the overall quality seems to be lacking. This year I tried both the Kayano and the Nimbus and both were returned.

I could tell that this shoe would be so comfortable, however my toes need more room in the toe box than the 9M gave me. There is a 9 wide, but the color wasn’t what I wanted. So I returned and all was taken care of in true Zappos form.

After reading the reviews, I had high expectations for this shoe. It felt average in every way from fit to finish. for the price, I was not impressed and returned them. I opted for the Noosa Tri 13 which I am totally in love with.
