So comfortable - lots of cushion and padding. So comfy I bought a second pair as my everyday sneakers and kept the original as my workout shoes. So glad I found these as I have been looking for a comfortable and versatile shoe and this was recommended to me at a running store.

Love these shoes! Im walking 3-4 miles every morning, and no blisters at all. For me, this is a massive feat! They have great cushioning, a good rocker that propels you forward, and they give me the stability I want. These arent a lightweight shoe, but the trade off with the cushion is totally worth it to me!

Definitely the fit is different from previous gel nimbus models. The heels are not snug so wearing no show socks not ideal since they ride down. Still comfortable but takes getting used to

Great shoe for fitness, power walking, running. I find the heel is a little big, so I wear a pair of heel inserts inside the shoe for a better fit.

Very disappointed by the quality reduction over the years. This used to be top of the line shoe. Now it feels like every other low end shoe. Felt very little contour in the footbed, barely any traction on the soles so they would wear out quickly and the top of the shoe feels like thin, cheap material. My last pair had the same cheap thin material on top and it literally tore within a week or so with minimal use. I give up officialy on this Asics after 30 years of use!

Comfortable, with good arch and back support. Went with a .5 size up to avoid pushing toes through the front of the shoe.

Love the feel and fit. But I am on my third pair in less than a year due to the uppers being made of paper. I have blown out the sides and the toe box at the fastest rate of any shoe. Im a 20 miles a week runner.... I switched to wide and still had the same problem. Mind you my 25s which are over 18 months old and have been worn a lot are still holding strong with zero holes. MAJOR Quality issues with this shoe. Hopefully they made improvements with the 27

These GEL-NIMBUS 26 shoes are great. I have been wearing the GEL-NIMBUS 25s and tried these. They feel terrific with an insert for my arches. I even bought a second pair. So glad I tried them.

So comfortable!!! My only wish would be a hands free slip on. But the loop on the back helps a lot!

I have been purchasing gel nimbus for years. Love the cushioning throughout the sole for those high impact workouts. It helps protect joints without compromising stability.

The gel numbers 26 I don't like the eyelet it hurts the top of my foot and the shoelaces are short and not stretchy like the 25s and not as comfortable. I like the 25s much better overall they are much more comfortable

This is my first pair of running shoes from Asics and theyre my favorite pair. Theyre super comfortable on my extremely flat feet, and I can run for a long time with no pain to my arches.

The absolute best fit i have ever had. Even so much better than previous models of the same. Fits the foot and makes you feel like you can float for miles.

I was diagnosed with plantar faciiatis in December and bought the Gel-Nimbus 26 on informed recommendation. They did not help at all. The cushioning makes the sneakers huge, stiff, and clunky. The design added more strain to my foot. I love the light green color but not the shoe and wish I had returned them. Fortunately, I also bought the Gel-Nimbus 25 which is a far superior choice for my foot.

I've worn brooks sneakers for 10+ years but after having some comfort issues with my last brooks sneakers, I decided to try Asics. WOW am I glad I did. The Gel-Nimbus 26 is like walking on a cloud. They are so plush and comfortable! I am not a runner, but I do walk 3-5 miles 6 days a week and I am blister prone. So far these sneakers have been extremely comfortable, no issues with blisters and they have been comfortable right out of the box! I highly recommend!

I've been wearing Asics for 20+ years and I fear we are breaking up. The old design was a dream to wear, use as a running shoe and cross trainer. The new designs are terrible. This one caused my feet to go numb and the balls of my feet to scream. I wanted to love this shoe, but it was simply too painful to keep. Return for sure!
