The sizing is fine, but they do not fit like a wide width. I have a tiny bunion on the little toe and they rub. The toe box drops off a little too sharp and they rub on my second toe as well. The running aspect seems enjoyable other than those issues. They have nice cushioning.

While click I click love click the click of click these click shoes click they click won't click stop click clicking with click every click step. Literally just like that. Every single step makes this loud obnoxious clicking sound. Wore them to work and they drove me insane. I thought give it time the bottom will wear down and it will stop. Nope not happening. If anything g it got louder.

I order a size bigger than my normal size. They feel really comfortable except the right show bothers me since my toes hit the front my left shoe is fine, but not the right side. I don't think these shoes are made correctly abs definitely not true to size.

The shoe laces do not stay tied. Other than that I don't really have an issue

I feel like the quality of Asics are going downhill. I've been wearing this shoe for years. First day of wearing the 23'ss a piece of the tread broke off and the glue from another piece was coming loose. They were returned.

I have been wearing ASICs for years now, and the Nimbus is typically my go to shoe. I have worn many different generations of them- but I have to say- I was disappointed by the support in this generation. I found that I was having pain in the balls of my feet after wearing them for a shift, which I have not experienced with previous generations of the Nimbus. I was a bit disappointed, since I justify spending so much money on them with the fact that my feet and knees are not usually in pain...

Love the Gel Nimbus 23!!! I work 10-11 hour shifts standing on concrete AND I have plantar fasciitis. My feet have not hurt since buying these shoes. I plan to buy different colors in them.

My feet are about a half size different. Usually the size 11 is okay for the smaller foot. However, the ball of my foot burns when I run more than 1.5 miles due to all the sliding.

I wish they carried more men's shoes in size 6.5. They didn't have the men's size so I had to buy the women's version. The toe box I always find more narrow on women's shoes. It seems the non stretchy part that the shoe laces thread into is further down the shoe than in men's. I have had bunion surgery so this causes issues. If only they brought that non stretchy piece up higher on the foot to allow more stretch towards the ball of the big toe. I'm not really loving the fit but I already wore them out and figured I just use them to walk in, maybe it will work itself out.

I ordered this shoe in women's 12.5 wide. The shoe fit lengthwise, but was still too narrow. It was so narrow the shoes were very uncomfortable. Love the style and the look. Will be returning for refund.

I love the color of these shoes, but it had to much arch support for me. After walking for a mile my feet started to ache in the arch. I returned them and bought Brooks Glycerin 19.

Im a nurse I probability walk 8 to 10 miles per shift on this shoes. They are very comfortable my feet and knees love them, but I dont like that they squick with every step no matter if I walk on title, carpet or wood floors. My squicky shoes let everyonr know that here I come. The loudness increases with hard surfaces they sound as if I am walking with soaking wet shoes.

i love these shoes... so pretty. my only issue is the width. i'm so tired of asics only making fun and pretty colors in M width, specially when their width runs small. I have a M width foot and their M width is too narrow. Why can't asics make their shoes with a proper M width and a W width is fun colors. Just because someone would wear a W width does not mean they don't deserve to wear fun and happy and bright color shoes.

I want to love them, but although the left one fits well, I have not been able to be comfortable with the right one yet. I have two other pair of much lower priced ASICS running shoes that are more comfortable, so I am disappointed. Hopefully the right one will improve.

I really wanted to love my new shoes after loving my Nimbus 18's for years. I find that my toes fall asleep and my feet get numb in them even though I have them tied much looser than I am used to doing. I went a half size up from what I typically wear and the length appears fine. Not sure what is going on with the width issues.

These run a little snug. They have a lot of cushion. I previously had Gel-Nimbus 22. They fit perfectly. Now I feel as though I am always loosening my laces and moving my foot around.

The shoes are very cushioned and mostly comfortable but sizing is off and quality control is lacking. In other shoes I wear a 9.5 medium, but require a 10 wide in this shoe. I ordered 10M from another vendor and 10W from ASICS. The 10M were made in Indonesia and had a lot of fabric creating puckers that stuck out on the sides when they were laced up! (Who is making these shoes??) The 10W from ASICS were made in Vietnam and fit well except for being a little long, but a 9.5 would have been to short---the toe box is cut narrow. Considering the strange sizing and my requiring these in wide, I wish they were offered in more than two color choices.

Cute shoes, I was bummed that they were to small and I had to return them. I order 11-1/2 wide which is normally loose, I do this because of an old foot injury. I reallllly wanted to keep them.

The style and colors were great, but there was something wrong with the left heel. I could feel the inner plastic piece of the left heel digging into my foot constantly. The right shoe was completely fine! Had to return.

Good shoe, a bit too much cushion, makes it funky to run in, not very natural. I would give more stars, but the way the lacing is constructed is uncomfortable, instead of having the top part of the shoe be in a straightforward V, its made in a wiggly ziggy line, and its just not comfortable nor practical.
