There was at least an inch of space between the end of my toes and the shoe front. Also felt very narrow. I could hardly get them on and then they were uncomfortable.

Propets fit well in the same size.

Fit is tight, Hard to put on and the sole is so soft laterally that I almost fell. No lateral support not a good shoe for me, these willl go in the bin to good will.

I ordered the standard width and the shoe was too narrow and fit too tightly. I returned them and ordered a pair of Gel Kayano 27's. The shoe was, however, we'll cushioned.

As an avid Gel-Nimbus purchaser, I was disappointed in the 24's not coming in 4E. I purchased these shoes as they didn't have the 4E version in this size and even these seemed a little snug in the toebox. Would like to see Asics offer 4E again and in more colors to accommodate those with wide feet.

Really liked the Nimbus 23. This version has a very thin tounge and is noticably smaller in length and width from the prior version. I need a wide toe box witch this version does not possess. Disappointed.

The side are jabbing into side of my foot. I had to ship them back. My GN 19-23 never did that.

Good comfort on foot plant but too narrow. I wear a size 14 with a C width. There was also a slight lump or ridge from side to side in the area of the arch. Might be where the front and rear cushion meet.

Light but not the stability of the nimbus-23
Good shoe but nothing like I expected after wearing nimbus -23. Nothing close

Very comfortable, even more so than #22 and #23 I had previously. However, the sole wears out very rapidly. Currently showing the same amount of wear after 2 months as my prior shoes showed at 8 months.

Love the 23 but the 24 doesn't seem as wide. Would love to see a 4 E

I recently switched to Asics with the Gel Nimbus 23 and couldn't be happier. I had my foot scanned and this was the shoe suggested for me. I was informed the Gel Nimbus 24 would be released soon and started doing my research. Also spoke to the company who scanned my foot, and they assured me the 24 model would be even better. I waited and searched, and finally, the 24 was released in my favorite color OD GREEN. I have never been so excited waiting for a shoe, unboxing once arrived was like Christmas! Loved the look, feel, everything. That's where the good news ends.
I could hardly get my foot into the shoe, it is dramatically more narrow than the 23's. Not only was it too narrow, but it was also super tight because of the sock like sown in tonge. The 23 felt like I was walking on clouds from the first time I put it on, to even still after 500 plus miles on them. As soon as I had my foot smooshed into the 24's they are noticeably stiffer. I could not make it over 5 miles in these shoes, they will have to be returned ASAP, very uncomfortable. To say I am very disappointed in this shoe that was supposed to be bigger and better than the 23 would be an understatement. Now the long search for a new shoe begins.
DON'T BUY!!!

I've been a long time ASIC customer running marathons for many years, however the last 2 ASICS shoes I've had just hurts my feet. Seems too narrow now or somehow my feet got wider! I would love to be able to exchange for a different style if possible otherwise I'm going to be switching permanently to another vendor.

I've been buying Acics for years and recently purchased the Gel Nimbus 24, and they have a completely different fit. It's created some issues with my feet, and will have to take them as a loss. I even tried going up a size, and still had the same issues.

It does not have the same quality of materials I have experienced with ASICS - Nimbus, The bottom tread is cheap. The tongue is attached all around and is STRETCHY?
It feels like a sock to be worn around the house. NOT a top of the line first-class running shoe

Bought a yellow pair six or seven months ago and felt an immediate improvement over my worn-down Nikes. Replaced the yellow with a blue pair two weeks ago and felt no difference between the new pair and the one I put 600 miles into. Zero support, felt like running barefoot on asphalt. Be sure to try before you buy.

No quality control. The black/white 10 wide are completely different then the gray/red and bue/blue colors. The widths are not comparable, I am a nurse and buy a pair every 3 months but that is changing. I have contacted customer support and they couldn't care less.

I have been wearing Nimbus for over a decade, a new pair every 1-2 years. This version of the shoe is way too narrow. I took too long to start wearing them after i purchased them and now I’m outside of the 30 day return window and I can’t send them back. I absolutely cannot wear these shoes, a complete waste of money and so disappointing.

You would want to purchase at least a full size wider. Very narrow show -- even at EE

They are too tight. I have been wearing them all day and my feet are throbbing. If I could return them I would.

I am an avid Asic fan, have been for years. Both my wife and I wear Asics everyday. I cannot begin to say how disappointed I am with my recent purchase of the Nimbus 24. They don't fit, they are sized too small. My normal size 11 in the 24's puts my toes to the end and squeezes my foot. The tongue and side support are very elastic and it makes it difficult to even put the shoe on. I've only worn the shoes a couple times because they actual hurt my feet so the best i can say about this model is the soles feel good. Honestly whomever decided to make this years changes should be fired. Why would you change something that has been so good for so long so drastically. There have been changes over years, some good some not so good, but the product has been the best. For the first time in more than 10 years I am shopping for a replacement to what was my favorite shoe. I have successfully recommended Asic to many friends over the years. Can't do that now. Please, can you at least explain why you ruined the shoe?

You need to fix my account charges. They're still not correct. I've called twice and emailed twice and got nowhere.
