Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Nimbus® 22

Unfortunately, these shoes are not as comfortable as the Gel Nimbus17s. I continue to try new versions of this shoe but am always disappointed. I will never understand why Asics continues to try to change something that was perfect. These shoes were comfortable, but I can't rate 5 stars as it is not as comfy and cushiony as the 17s.

These are very comfortable for trainers but the fit has changed quite a bit since the nimbus 18. I really love the cushy supportive feel of the nimbus shoe. This is my third pair and I’ve been hooked since my first. I have never wanted to try another brand/style. The nimbus 22 is very supportive but the heel wrap I find to be a bit low. In years past the heel wrap seemed to grab my heel better and the cushioning there hit the right spot between the healbone and the Achilles’ tendon. This version although cushioned and comfortable kind of feels like it could slip off if not tied well. Overall I’m happy with them but questioning why the fit change?

light weight but not supportive - arch hurt

I had informed Zappos immediately upon receipt of these shoes that I was going to return them- as I did not quite like the style (I found them to be a little too flashy). When my teenage son then contradicted my belief that shoes were not so pretty AND Zappos informed me then that I was allowed to try them for 30 days and still be able to return and get my money back, I decided to give them a try ?. They are wonderful: VERY comfortable and great to run in. They are keepers after all! ( I got used to the bright colors of the shoe ?). Thank you Zappos! I highly recommend this shoe. (PS I also had bought a pair of the more expensive ASICS-Tiger Gel- Kinsei-OG from a different provider- however returned those as the Gel Nimbus22 is SO much more comfortable!)

Held on to these for quite a while, trying them around the house from time to time. They just don't have the nice cushy feel of all my past Asics. I have been a fan for many years. Also, they do look a little clunky, but that may be due to the color. In any case, I later ordered a pair of Merrells and am much more please with them so I will give them a try.

I bought these to replace my 20's and was skeptical bc the newer generation is rarely close to the older one. I tried to love a pair of Brooks but just gravitated back to these 22's. I always put a superfeet (green) insole in my shoes so I can't speak to support without them. These are working very well for me in my varied exercise regimen - lifting, HIIT and crossfit workouts. I still bought a size 10 (usually a 9.5) even though others said they could move back to their true size. I like to have a little more room.
