I love Gel-nimbus, but the toe of the shoe wears out before the shoe does. I havent found a replacement yet thats as comfortable. Asics please make your toe of the shoe stronger. Dr. Burford

If you have any neuropathy or plantar fasciitis in your feet, this shoe rides better than the 26

Love the new look and cushioning. Had a problem with the first pair wearing out above my toes, even with wearing good socks.

I almost exclusively buy ASICS, because of the removable insole, decent cushioning, and wide sizes. This shoe definitely has all that. The cushioning and rebound is AMAZING in these! However, the arch support seems to be lacking; the shoe itself is so squishy it doesn't provide much, and the removable insole is nothing but flat dense foam, instead of having a bit of arch build-up like other ASICS. This is fine, since I use Powerstep insoles in my shoes (amazing arch support!). Working long hours on my feet is much more bearable in these. I am heavy and go through shoes very quickly, but these seem like they might hold up for a while.

This is my first pair of ASICS. I like that the shoe is light weight. And I like range of colors/designs. My only complaint is that I had to wait about three weeks to get them - but that is a sign of solid demand. Congratulations ASICS!

Very Comfortable - eliminated hip pain. Second pair and the material covering the toes continue to wear out quickly.

Really comfortable recovery shoes. The upper is one of the best I've ever experienced, it's breathable and stretches in the perfect way to give the ideal fit. They're very well cushioned, but maintain responsiveness. I wouldn't do speed work in these, but for daily miles or recovery runs, they're absolutely perfect. My only two criticisms are the lack of outsole grip and the overall weight. You don't necessarily feel the weight, so that is a nitpick. However, they can be a little slippery if it's just rained.

Love the cushioning and the ride! The pull tab on the back is a great addition from the last version I owned. The size is perfect, I have not experienced any blistering or hot-spots. I need to get used to the new tongue which isn't as plush as the last model I ran in.

Sneaker itself is excellent, great comfort, cushion and bounce. Stretch material around toe area is weak, my toes went right thru material with plenty of bottom wear remaining. Love the sneaker, would like to see stronger material at toe area !

Overall a good product but waiting to see how the new sole design holds up compared to older Gel-Nimbus models. Currently used daily for 2 or 3 mile runs.

Almost too cushiony/ bouncy and I'm a fan of the neutral Nimbus. ASICS unfortunately modifies each iteration in a way that fundamentally changes the feel of the shoe. I've been wearing this model since Nimbus 6 and may need to look for another shoe.

Excellent cushion but run a little small. Should have bought a size 12 instead of 11.5

The shoe is almost perfect in my opinion. It would be perfect if it had the same mesh upper as the 24. It is a bit stiff but it has loosen up.

I love the new design and feel of these shoes however they are slippery when running on wet surfaces making them a little more prone to injury. The heel loop is a great idea as easier to get shoes on

Great fit and very comfortable! Would recommend for heavy runners who have lost weight and are wanting to transition into more of a "running" shoe.

So far I really liked my shoes. There is plenty of cushioning. I have worn my shoes for only week and half. I bought these shoes for vacation for walking. So far good shoes. I would like to see how long gel cushioning last.

Most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. Literally gives you bounce in your step! Wish they had a little better style. IMO, these beat HOKA by a good margin in comfort. HOKA have better style though.

A great shoe for my long, easy runs, and recovery runs. I run for hours in them. A solid 4 stars. The plushness of the upper is still there, and the softness of the midsole is still soft. Me having a wide foot, I find there is plenty of room in the toe box when my feet expand. This shoe has spoiled me because I'm so use to the comfort; I don't want to take them off, but I have speed days, and use another shoe for those days. It just has the right amount of squish underfoot. So why not 5 stars? I have wide feet, so while the upper fits pretty good, the outsole rubber doesn't really cover the whole bottom of the midsole. That flaw causes the the outer part of the midsole to wear away as you can see in one of the pictures. On many occasions I almost twisted my ankle because of the wear. Even before the midsole started to wear, within the first 100 miles I almost twisted my ankle because of lack of outsole rubber coverage. Asics shouldn't be afraid of adding a little bit more rubber on common wear spots like the outer part of the forefoot to reduce the risk of getting injured. Had they done so, this shoe would be a solid 5 stars in my book.
