Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Nimbus 26

Wide toe box which I like, its true to size, and VERY comfortable. I havent ran in these outside yet but I have done sprint intervals on the treadmill and incline walking for about an hour several times. I havent experienced any pain in my knee or calves, which has been a problem for me in the past with Nike running shoes. This brand and the Gel-Nimbus does not disappoint.

Great Shoes, fits as expected, however quite expensive

Very cushioned support without being heavy. I am using these for officiating basketball (in the all black) and they seem to be holding up to the action. I have had plantar fasciitis and these shoes are agreeable to my feet Ive wanted an all black running shoe for basketball for years and finally have one!

Went through 3 pairs & all had holes in toe region within 2 weeks. Will not purchase this brand again! This also happened to two other coworkers which we all 3 work in the operating room. Shoe is comfortable but for the price & to tear up so easily, they are not worth it!!

Sneaker is very cushioned, great piece will need to see how long they last in durability

Most comfortable shoes Ive ever worn in my whole entire life. No regret!

Great overall running shoe. Using to train for half marathon. Good for comfort, maybe not speed

I have had 13 pairs of Asics gel nimbus shoes. This is the first pair that caused blisters on the back of my foot at the achilles. Usually, I have found that each newer pair is more comfortable and better shaped. The last pair were great in that the center of the shoe was not as wide as in the past. But, this pair is not better or more comfortable than previous ones.

I only run with the Gel Nimbus and buy the new model every year. This one did not even lasted 4 months (with no intense training) as I got holes on both of the shoes. The shop where I bought them offered to take them back and give me new ones. I got the same holes not even 3 months later. This had never happened with the former models

I have been hesitant to buy the newer Nimbus because things have changed so much, including the heel drop changing. It didnt bother me at all with these new shoes, and they're very comfortable.

I was fitted for the Gel-Nimbus 25 when I went to my local running store and immediately fell in love. I then purchased the 26 when they came out and I like them better! They are a tad bit bigger than the 25's, which I notice whenever I wear my retired 25's to the gym. The Gel-Nimbus are the ONLY shoes that I like to run in and they have been a lifesaver. I am training for a marathon and have ran tons of miles in each of my three pairs of the Nimbus 26 and they are still holding up amazingly. Of course there is some normal wear and tear, but overall I have no complaints. I am excited to try the 27's when they come out, but I am a loyal Asics runner!

I really wanted to like the nimbus 26 women sneakers. They felt great at first, but then my toes were hurting the next day after walking around inside my house only, and my toes seemed to be getting bruised and mashed at the front of my sneaker. I was also getting foot cramps. I never had a problem with my nimbus 24 platinum. I wish I could buy another pair of these sneakers! I tired the platinum nimbus 26, and they did not feel good at all.

Comfortable for running but a bit too narrow for wide feet

I am a lifelong fan of this brand. I underpronate with some really high arches and sometimes run wide. This shoe is an absolute dream for me! Thank you Asics for another SOLID product, well done!

Since picking up running in January 2023, Ive owned four pairs of ASICS Nimbus shoes (24, 25, and now 26), and theyve been my trusted companions through everything from 5k runs to my first marathon in November 2023. The comfort and support are outstanding, with plush cushioning that keeps my feet feeling fresh, even on long runs. While I love the Nimbus for daily training, Ive found them to be a bit heavier, so Ive recently started using lighter shoes like the ASICS Nova Blast and Super Blast for speed days and races. This combination has worked perfectly for me! Overall, if youre looking for a reliable running shoe that excels in comfort and support, the ASICS Nimbus 26 is a fantastic choice. Whether youre training for a marathon or just looking to enjoy a leisurely jog, these shoes will help you feel relaxed and confident in your run. Theyve been a game changer in my running journey, and I highly recommend them for runners at any level!

This shoe was what was missing from my daily walk. I had lower back pain when I walked and this max cushion shoe did the trick. Very comfortable, light and would definitely recommend.

These Nimbus 26 sneakers are great looking, especially with the black streak on the white rubber to minimize all that whiteness. It's a great fit and I look forward to wearing them until the next iteration.

Really great shoe I add the Dr Scholls Sport Insert and it's perfect for me. It's good without that but I like the extra arch support of the sport insert. Great stability while being flexible and not too stiff.

Most comfortable shoes ever. I had foot problems and these shoes have cleared me of all of them. Its like walking on clouds.

A colleague recommended this as we are on our feet a lot at work. The Nimbus is so soft and cloud-like. I ordered another color a week later. Absolutely happy with these shoes.

I was so happy that on the first step in they felt great! No breaking in required.

Very comfy - my favorite pair yet, However they ran smaller than my last pair and I had to return for a size larger.

During 1 mile in, I had to take them off immediately. When I first tried them on, it seemed like great fit and support but during the walk, my feet began to ache BAD. I am a true 8.5 and purchased 9 (like I nornally do in running shoes). It gave me blisters and sores from the collar of the shoe. It has been 2 weeks and I am still healing and still have heel pain. This has never happened to me before and after this bad experience, I will probably never purchase Asics again.

Perfect! Just right across the toes, comfortable, cushion with stability. And the color combo is just what I was looking for. Nimbus is my fit!

I love these. Very comfortable and plenty of cushion. Highly recommend
