I put these on and wore them for 8 hours and they were great. I am dealing with plantar facititus and a bunion and recovering from a total knee replacement. Wore these again all day today and have not had any pain from the PF. Lovebthese shoes and am going to buy a second pair!

I love this iteration of the Gel-Nimbus! It's cushioning is exactly what I need for a foot issue and they're lighter than some of the previous versions.

These are super comfortable shoes, I'm a fan fav of the Noosa, but after trying these on, they've become my new favorite. They give great arch support, as well as super cushioning, like walking on clouds. After trying them on in store, they are a little narrow in the toe area, I ordered a full size larger. For reference I'm size 10, but ordered 11 and they fit perfectly.
I'd also recommend:
Asics Noosa 13 and 14

Fit like a glove and offer terrific cushioning. This is my third pair of Nimbus 24’s and very happy with all three.

I always order 1/2 size larger when I buy Asics and then the shoes fit perfect. I really love the Gel-Nimbus 24, just wish they weren't so darn expensive.

I love these shoes. I am not a runner, but I walk a lot on all kinds of surfaces, and the padding always makes me feel comfortable. The new thinner tongue makes the fit better.

Since Brooks changed their shoes, I have been looking for a replacement. These are it. The Nimbus 24 are so great that I have bought 2 pairs and thinking about getting another one to keep for when these wear out. The support is excellent but the cushion in them is even better. I have back, hip and ankle problems and must have cushioning. I've tried dozens of sneakers and these are the only ones that are truly comfortable.

Comfiest shoes i ever worn. I work 12 hour shifts as a nurse and these shoes are comfy and feel jelly on my feet. They grip to the floor well so non-slip is great. Its worth the investment.

These shoes are hands down the best shoe I’ve ever purchased for walking and light running workouts. They are unbelievably comfortable and go the distance without my feet even feeling like they’ve walked or ran several miles. I am actually amazed.

I love these Nimbus 24! I am a teacher and always on my feet. After work, my feet do not ache and I am ready for a workout.

As a healthcare worker, I'm on my feet for 16 hours a day. I've had several problems from a broken bone in my foot to plantar fasciitis, and one day I realized I needed to invest in my feet. After trying on pair after pair of your run of the mill mainstream brands, my husband handed me a pair of asics and it just so happened to be the Nimbus 18's. It felt like I had stepped on to a cloud and I knew they were the ones. 6 years later I now purchase two pairs a year and alternate pairs each work day. I encourage anyone who is on their feet for any amount of time to invest in their feet. My back, feet, and knees are 100% better with these asics and I'm so grateful to have found a shoe that provides not only comfort, but an amazing quality and still offers so many stylish color schemes. Please note these are a little narrow, especially in the toe area. I started sizing up a half size and they're a perfect fit!

These are my third pair of the Gel Nimbus. My last pair lasted almost 7 years and were fantastic. The first thing I did upon receiving these is order a pair of insoles (Spencos to replace the ones that they came with as they don't have the cushioning I require. That's helped a lot but currently only walking/light jogging with them. They style of the shoe has changed somewhat since the previous generations, but they still look and feel good. Highly recommend for active walkers, joggers and light runners.

Love this shoe! First time I've been able to walk comfortably in spite of my plantar fasciitis! I now own two pair and highly recommended this running shoe...even if you're not a runner!

Light weight, lots of cushion and a nice roll. Great for running or walking, but I love the spring it adds to my run.

I’m a size 8 wide measured . I usually wear 8.5 in sandals and regular shoes 8.5/9 in running. I ordered a 9 and the instep was very tight due to the cushioning.
Other than that issue shoes are very bouncy

wish I could have kept this, shoe was way too narrow and overall small. Great color and comfort but too tight for what it should have been

I'm a 6.5 in every other brand but Asics now apparently.
These shoes are very cushiony and comfy, far more so than all the other Asics I tried, with just 2 flaws:
1. VERY squeaky. The squeakiness is not going away and its SO LOUD. very annoying. I haven't decided if I'm willing to put up with this yet.
2. The tongue of the shoe is not cushioned, so I can very much feel the laces. This is less of a problem than it would be for other shoes because the laces are flat. The sole of the show is so cushioned that I think I'm willing to put up with this one
The soles are seriously so much more cushioned than any other shoes I've tried. I have fibromyalgia and I don't get nearly as much pain in my feet wearing these shoes.
I also really wish shoes this squishy came in a style that was more every day and less athletic, but I'll take what I can get.
I'd also recommend:
Vionic, Reebok (exclusively the DMX walking shoes)

I normally wear an 8 and tried 8 and 8.5 in wide (having a foot issue needing a wide toe box). Both felt way too small. I think the fabric is more sock-like so it snugs to your foot and that didn't work for me. The cushioning felt adequate but I have to say even though it wasn't as high a stacked sole as so many running shoes have now it still felt a little high to me. Like there wasn't a great feeling of the ground and that I could be a little off-balance. Maybe it's just me and maybe in a 9W they would've felt more grounded. All in all I didn't feel like trying the 9W was worth fooling with. Sent them back.

I had to order a 1/2 size up because it seemed like the shoe was smaller in the width of the toe. The size up was too long and felt sloppy. In the nimbus 23, size 9 fit me perfectly, nimbus 24 size 9 too small
I ordered the purple color, not for me but I'm sure some would love it.

This version has a lot of squashy padding but less solid support (especially arch support) than previous ones. The profile of the sole lugs is very low, and I'm a bit concerned about long-term durability. But at least for now they're very comfortable!

I take a 9 1/2 most of the time, but a 10 in ASICS and I forgot to check when placing this order. However, I won't be ordering these a half size up as I could. I wanted to see if upgrading from the Venture to the Nimbus made sense for me and I think that for my all-walking routine the Venture is more appropriate.

I’ve worn a 9 in this shoe before but this time my toe was hitting the end and very uncomfortable. Recommend 1/2 size larger!
