Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Nimbus 26

They look and feel fantastic, only problem is they are very squeaky on certain surfaces especially when indoors.

Excellent shoes , very comfort , its can be used for all day to any use.

buy these if you need ankle weights. closer to work boots than running shoes.

The color is misleading. I ordered the red/black and got neon orange with yellow on the bottom. The box says red/black, but that is not even close to red! For the price I paid, I should get the color I wanted. Will not order again.

My wife had a pair of the Gel Nimbus and talked me into them. I have arthritis and work on my feet all day. These were a great improvement over the less expensive models in terms of cushioning in the sole. I would give them 5 stars except for two minor issues: 1) Yes, the cushioning is like walking on a cloud, but the trade-off for that softness is that they don't feel quite as stable as models with a little less cushion. 2) The tongue had no padding at all, and tends to fold lengthwise when I'm tying the shoes. Overall, I would buy them again, and in fact I plan to buy backup pairs for the whole family when the 27 comes out and the 26 goes on sale.

Incredible comfort and support - not to mention very stylish

Very interesting feel to the shoes compared to my Nimbus 19 and previous. Width and general fit are great. The cushioning is great. Haven't tried running on them.

I do love the feel of this shoe but Just not durable after less than 45 days had a tear in the R toe and left and right shoe. I have previously worn ADDIDS for 2 year and never a problem or tear.

These have been so great for my supination. I wear a wide shoe so my options are limited. I got them in all black which is surprising to see an all black shoe in 2024. I think the aesthetic

ASICS fit my feet perfectly. I am getting back into running after years and the Gel-Nimbus 26 were recommended. They are great! I rate them a 10.

Great comfort, seems to tear or rip easily on the top of the shoe This is my second pair in the last 6 months that this has happened. I will Be looking for a different shoe going forward

I am a die-hard Nimbus wearer but the quality control and reliability on the 26 let me down. These are more comfortable than the 25 and have a better fit for sure. I have no complaints there but i noticed a thread poking out of the side of the sole when these were fairly new. I was assuming something in the assembly process. No worries, so i contact support for a warranty but they denied my claim. Now i have premature failure in the toe but am hesitant to reach out as they let me down with an obvious issue. I use these for casual wear and walking. Great comfort and fit - poor reliability and quality support.

Terrible. Go back to the Nimbus 25s! The changes made from the 25 to 26 are terrible. Initially, the 26s felt fine, then pain starts. Make ankles and knees hurt. Both men and women at the gym asked me about the 26s, they had the same exact complaints and they despise these shoes. I am surprised there are positive reviews -- I wonder if they are all by testers and / or Asics employees? I did not feel like paying the return fee for being a loyal customer, so I decided to wear these shoes for errands, they still caused pain, was beyond return date, so gave them to charity. After buying these, I bought the 25s in almost every color. Unfortunately, the Nimbus 25 Trail sold out in the men's -- these were my favorite trail shoes.

Great for controlling over pronation during runs. Helps dealing with peroneal tendinitis. Best shoe I have had for my issues.

Great fit, amazing shoes! I bought them to replace the Numbus 25.

Great shoe, very comfortable, fit is as good normally 10.5 in Hoka & Brooks, same size in these. This was a concern considering first time wearing ASICS

I really wanted these shoes because I liked the look , however they seem to run a little small. I have a narrow foot and normally wear a size 14 and shoes were very tight . May try a different shoe as I was wanting to give Asiics a try,

Best running shoe for a big, tall guy that has to wear an extra wide shoe. I have lifted weights for a very long time but wanted to pick up running as well for more functional fitness. Im 63 and 240lbs. I bought extra wide in the Brooks Ghost and Hoka 8 Bondiand sent them all back. they were not even close to the feeling I have in this shoe. I now have 3 pair and wont be looking at any other shoes

Perfect shoe adding to rotation (dont mess it up)

This shoe is comfortable and stabilizing. Bought one for indoors and one for outdoors. The only shoe I want to wear. Broke my heel 10 years ago and I can go all day without feeling it in my heel. Worth every penny!

The shoe is light with breathable fabric that makes wearing them in hot weather comfortable. However, this is the third pair with this fabric style and on the previous two my toe nail pierced the fabric. I do 1-2 hours of cardio five times a week and I surprised by how the shoe longevity is curtailed because of the breach. I am hoping this pair can hold better to my conditioning. I do love the soles cushion, it is by far the best Ive had in any shoe.

I often stand on feet for 8+ hours a day on asphalt. Feet feel like im standing on a cloud. Look great as well.

These shoes are amazing! My feet hurt not anymore worth buying.

These are the most comfortable running shoes I have ever owned. Light weight and plenty of cushion. Very helpful with my old joints, especially after having knee surgery in the year. I love the Asics brand and the Nimbus has been my favorite shoe since I started running back in 2015.

The shoe looks great. Lot of cushion. I was hoping to get away from having to wear insoles but they just dont provide the support I need. Overall they wear pretty well for an everyday shoe. They squeak horribly on polished floors!
