So comfortable finally found the shoe for my foot l. Great cushion and support, I stand on cement all day and my feet don't hurt at the end of my shift.

I got these because my friend swears by ASICS. I love them! First time on walked 3 miles no problem. I think they work really well because they mold to your feet and your foot moves with the shoe not hitting against shoe. I have a small bunyon and they feel amazing on that foot. very cushie on soles too I didn't even need to put in any support. I also poured water on them to see how long it would take to dry, 2 - 3hours not bad.

This is my third pair of ASICS Gel-Nimbus 23. They are great for wider feet and supinators.

Shoes are great but give heel blisters first few runs.

I absolutely love the Nimbus Gel shoes. I walk 2.5 miles every day and my feet are always comfortable. The only issue I have is that I can't order a wide width. My left little toe comes through the side of the shoe within a couple months of wear. And even though I walk every day, I always buy 2 pairs so I can switch each day. A shoe shouldn't wear out so quickly. My suggestion is to add the availability of the wider shoe.

The shoe itself is very comfortable. The one downside I have is the stretch tongue. The shoe does not come with a normal tongue. This makes it very difficult to slip my custom inserts in and out .

The tongue on the shoe is a solid piece, which surprised me.

Nice shoe but the elastic tongue makes it too tight for my high instep.

Nimbus is my favorite shoe hands down. The Knit is great, super good looking. The only reason I didn't give it 4 stars is because the knit top is a little rough. I felt the knit sock lining should have softer. With that said I do still love this shoe.

This was not as cushiony as the regular gel nimbus and felt a little snug so not as comfortable.

This shoe is more like a sock. It's very difficult to get on because the tongue is connected to the shoe. It is not separate.

Not as comfortable as the 22 shoe but I like the slip on ability. Will wear around the house but not for walking , so really like them for indoor use.

This is a great shoe, but I can't figure out how to get them on while wearing socks. The knit grabs the sock causing painful pulling around my toes. I will save these for sock free days.

My second purchase of the Nimbus model shoe, my first was the 19. Loved the feel and support of the shoe but the tight knit on the top especially on the heel made these unwearable. The constant rubbing and digging was unbearable. I unfortunately had to return these and purchased the Gel-Nimbus 24 MK.

Cuts into my ankle around the top of the shoe. I love ASICS just not this style.

I think I'm on my 5th pair of Gel Nimbus at this point. I've loved every pair I've received prior to these. While I like the look and feel of these, the design includes a knit section at the top that is digging into the back of my ankles. I've had to buy higher socks to be able to wear these and even that doesn't always do the trick. So while I'd certainly purchase another pair of Gel Nimbus I would avoid the knit version.

I can't really review much, because I didn't understand the description. The shoe has what I call the sock tongue, the tongue that is attached to both sides. Which didn't bother me too much, what did bother me was the tight material around the top of the shoe. I didn't like that feeling at all soo I returned them :(

The sizing in this shoe was not consistent with other shoes by Asics that I've worn. They had more volume in general, were wider and longer. My feet run narrow which is why I've worn Asics. This is not a shoe that will suit a narrower foot.

They are a cool looking shoe but the flex was so tight at my instep that felt like my fool was not getting circulation and was a little numbing. They also were hard to get on.

Laces are too tight! I tried every way possible wanting these shoes to work. It would be great if ASICS actually read the reviews and stop changing a good thing when you have a great shoe that’s comfortable and high demand for your customers in purchasing more?!

I didn't like the knit portion it was a little tight and rubbed my ankles. I'll pick traditional shoes from here in out

Gave me a very bad toe infection because of the crease. I bought a pair of Cumulus 23 to replace them.

The support on the shoe feels good at first but when you begin running it seems very thin with not much support.
