Incredibly comfortable shoe. I would have gave this shoe a 5 star but, had to add cloth tape to inside toe box area due to material starting to wear thru quickly.

I bought these shoes about a month ago and they are amazing. Very comfy and squishy I have wide feet and they fit exactly the way I want them to.

Extra wide is not wide enough in the midfoot secrion. I ordered a half size up from my usual 8 in Nimbus 22, still too narrow in the midfoot.

I purchased two pairs. Each pair had two different sized shoes. Pair 1 has a smaller left foot and Pair 2 has a smaller right foot. I really needed sneakers right away, so I didn't bother with returning or exchanging them. So, of course, I have some foot pain from prolonged periods of wearing them.

Love the cushion. Have been a 10+ year wearer of Nimbus, always a size 11.5. For some reason I'm noticing these are a bit narrower and my forefoot appears to go numb after awhile. Hoping they stretch out a bit in width. Didn't think I'd ever need a size wide

This was my second nimbus 26 shoe I bought. The first pair fit great and had no issues. Decided to buy my second pair from the website. Upon receiving it the top of my foot felt mildy uncomfortable due to the top of the shoe digging in. As I wore the shoe out for two more times I started developing a blister. I tried exchanging the shoe since my other nimbus fit perfect and this appeared to be a quality control issue. They unfortunately said they couldn't exchange it because they don't do exchanges for "fit" issues, even though that was not the problem since I own the exact same shoe in a different colorway. Shoe was literally worn 3 times under 10 miles. For this I will no longer be purchasing ASICS due to the quality control and inability to stand behind their products.

I have mixed feelings. The cushioning feels fantastic, thanks to the gel material, which provides excellent comfort during walks and training. However, I've encountered a significant issue: the upper part of the shoes burns against my toes, particularly at the front. This discomfort is quite annoying and detracts from the overall experience. Im not sure maybe that was because it is wide, but I have purchased a standard one. Ill give it a review once I receive it.
On a positive note, the customer service was great, and the delivery was prompt. If they could address the issue with the fit, these shoes would be nearly perfect.

The toe box is much tighter than the previous version. This caused a great amount of discomfort and pain in my toes even with the laces being as loose as possible.

Great shoe, my first pair since coming from Hoka Arashi. I did start with the Gel Kayano 31, but did not like the stability version, it was not for my running style. The Nimbus 2 is neutral, my feet hit correctly and no knee or hip pain/feel after running. I am 57 years, 190 lbs and run, row, lift daily to stay in shape. I am tracking my miles on these shoes, hoping that the hard rubber on the bottom of the soles stays on, Hokas tear off on me.

The shoe is very comfortable, which is great. But they're also very flimsy. I ran for a couple of days on a treadmill, and they have a small tear in the sole. I reached out to the customer support, and they said that this shoe is supposed to be soft, and I should buy another model with a sturdier heel for running. Which is crazy because these are advertised as running shoes!

I wear size 15, so limited to going up a size. I have the Nimbus 25. Excellent support and fantastic cushion. Not a runner. I have two knee replacements. Recently walked Portugal for 10 days, 5-7 miles per day. Nimbus 25 were a relief to walk.
Nimbus 26. Too narrow and small. Asics changed the shoe to cradle the foot. I could wear for more than 1 hour. Uggg!
Returned and purchased two more pairs of Nimbus 25 on clearance.

I am new to Asics. The GEL-NIMBUS 26 EXTRA WIDE is the first sneaker in quite some time that I have bought that has revolutionized my life! Yes...those are strong words! But these shoes are amazing. I wore them most of the day yesterday, took a walk with my dog with then, etc., and found them extremely comfortable! I was volunteering for a five-hour event today and chose to wear them for the event. They were so comfortable I felt like I was walking on air! If they made the black version with a black sole, I'd get a 2nd pair. I'm not a fan of all that white rubber on the bottom, so won't get a 2nd pair. Really great sneakers!
