Nothing wrong with the shoes themselves, but I ordered mens shoes and was sent women's shoes and were too small to wear!

The shoes were at least one size smaller than the label read and had two different sizes listed on the label. This was the first time I've seen this in ASICS. I won't buy them online again.

I have been wearing Asics Gel-Nimbus shoes for at least ten years. I've run and walked comfortably in this model, so I keep ordering the new versions. For some reason, this newest version is really bad. There seems to be a spongy sole that has very little support and my ankles and calves feel strained running in them. It's almost like wearing a slipper. I'm curious to hear how other people feel about the Gel-Nimbus 23.

While I love the shoes, the shoelaces had a tear in them and Asics Customer Service was not willing to replace them. I was disappointed to say the least...

These are too small. I've worn an Asics 8 1/2 since my first marathon 21 years ago.
Who designed these?!
Who oversaw the sizing?!
Mine ought to say no larger than an 8!
The size is WRONG. Be forewarned!! This is the first time I've written a running shoe review because I want to save someone else the trouble. I'm 46, healthy, fit, and well, and fortunately I have strong running feet. Must buy replacements!

I have been wearing Gel-Nimbus for years. Previously, every time there was a new model, the fit remained the same. The new version -23, is an exception to this. The fit is much smaller and the support is completely different. This new version is horrible and I can no longer wear them. Time to find new sneakers.

Extremely disappointing. Have been wearing these shoes since early August. They have been used strictly for low mileage walking. Although they mostly still look new, there is already a hole through the top of the left sneaker (big toe). I have narrow, low-volume feet. I would have expected a more durable shoe at this price point.

This new shoe is too narrow. I had to order last years Gel-Nimbus 22D. The Gel Nimbus 18 was much wider and cushioned than these newer shoes.

This is not a neutral shoe! It felt fine at first, but after a couple of weeks it definitely pushed my feet to the outside. It is for over-pronaters. If you need a neutral shoe, don't waste your money on this one. So disappointed, the style is really cute.

The size and fit we're great. But I had an issue with one shoe squeaking, so I returned them just to get another pair that squeaked. NOT HAPPY

I ordered these in my usual 8 wide size. I couldn't even get the shoes on. They were too short in length (felt like a 6) and too narrow in width (felt like a narrow instead of a wide).

These were so uncomfortable that I eventually gave up and threw them away. My sister had the same pair and gave hers away. I have never done that with Asics before. I went online and found the Gel Nimbus 22 and ordered first one pair, and then a second pair.

They were good in a lot of ways, but the size didn't fit my foot right so I had to return them.

Uncomfortably snug/tight. I purchased a while ago the identical sneakers in a different color. These earlier shoes are my MOST comfortable sneakers! I can't understand why the manufacturer would change a winner. Is it unreliability in production?

I believe the rear of the shoe by the ankle is shorter than previous models. I sent back & ordered 3x pair the previous model (22vs23). Something similar happened with the 17 model that was 1/2 smaller than before.

I don’t know what’s going on but I’ve ordered 2pr of these at different times & they fit opposite of why I buy them. I supinate & these Nimbus gel 23 cause my foot to supinate even more. I’ve been buying Nimbus Gel for years. Maybe their seconds, anyway waiting for the 24’s.

The soles on this shoe are ok at best.
I consistently stand for 4 or 5 hours at work. I ended up getting some Air Jordans because I needed extra cushion & arch support for my feet not to hurt.

Great looking but if you have high arches, don’t buy. Sneaker binds top of foot so it becomes uncomfortable.

Poor quality. Expected more from such expensive shoes. My old gel nimbus are better than Gel nimbus 23. Poor support and padding due to which I bought these shoes.

Sneakers felt irregular. Right sneaker very narrow for a wide width and narrower than the left.
Sneakers felt cushioned but were irregularly cut and placed on sole. Bad construction for a
$150 sneaker.
