Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Nimbus 26

Good comfort but The tongue stitching caused blisters on my ankle

104 marathons later so I'm aware of what does and doesn't work well for me. First negative review. This is my 2nd pair of this model but this specific pair is wearable. Sadly I pulled off tags bc 9 years in to ASICS I've never had a GelNimbus problem when I re ordered a model I'd already tested. I dod skip an entire model bc reviews were negative on sizing. This color of the 26 has a right foot big toe area that feels like a metal plate is in there. Going to wear first pair (different color) of this model despite having 200 miles on it for nyc marathon....

These shoes are amazing for your long distance runs! So much comfort and cushion!

Great fit, support, yet so soft. Highly recommend.

Literally feels like walking on air. Support for my legs and back. My feet feel cushioned . The ground is far away. These work so well with walking and being on my feet for 12 hours at work. Forever an ASICS customer.

I never received the Nimbus 26 it got lost in the shipping process.

I bought these in August and 2 months in the shoe ripped from the front, totally not worth the hefty price for a shoe that will rip in less than 2 months and the kicker is I didnt even run in them. Truly all I did was walk in them. Wont buy again.

wrong shoe was sent needed a man's shoe instead of a women's shoe

I have started having some foot problems and was looking for some new walking/every day shoes. I looked at a number of brands and settled on this shoe. I ordered my regular size but found them to be a bit short in length so returned them and went a half size up. Perfect. They are very soft and supportive and have great bounce due to the gel. I love them and highly recommend them.

I absolutely love my new shoes. They are like clouds on my feet from the moment I took them out of the box! They are my go to pair of workout shoes.

Comfort is amazing I was so excited about these but within 2 months mine had holes at the top from my toes. I have never had this issue with other brands. My dad bought the same pair around the same time I did and his did the same thing! Frustrating spending almost $200 on shoes and only lasting 3 months.

Stop trying to be a Hoka!! Every ASICS show I try to buy now is trying to mimic a Hoka and its so awful. The shoe is way too bulky and wide now. The new stitched in tongue is very uncomfortable as the fabric rubs on the side of the foot. The heel is super wide and cumbersome. I can even wear these to workout at Orange theory because the heel doesnt fit in the rowing machine! I was already starting to supplement with Brooks at OT workouts and looks like Im just going with them for everything now that ASICS shoes just keep getting worse.

A little disappointed. They fit perfect. I feel better walking in them than any other shoe Ive found. But, the cost is significant and Ive had them for five months and they are wearing out badly - holes over my toes, the back of the heel is getting smushed and flat. If I were athletic, this would seem more reasonable, but while I do wear them daily, I work a desk job and average but 5k steps a day (I know, Im working on that). So yeah, very impressed initially, but not sure Id buy again.

I ordered these shoes for a marathon and they never came. The status said shipped and the delivery date came and went without an update. I reached out to customer service and they kept referring me to the shipment link (which I tried to explain had not been updated in some weeks). They made me wait the longest possible delivery window before offering to reship or a refund. I requested a refund and did not receive a response for a couple of days. I had to call and flag this issue before getting it fixed. Disappointed to say the least.

Seriously these sneakers are so cushiony. Feels like walking on marshmallows. I bought a second pair.

Best shoes EVER!!! I only buy ASICS shoes and the Gel Nimbus is the best. The comfort is second to none.

Most comfy shoe Ive ever worn! With bad knees and hips, support and comfort are a must and this shoe delivered. Perfection!

Comfortable shoes with better styling than the previous version.

I have a fused ankle and this shoe is actually helping me walk normal and with no pain. THANK YOU.

Comfiest shoes I own!! The cushioned soles is such a life saver!!

Most comfortable shoes, feel like youre walking on air!

Very comfy and lightweight. Great for long distance- space for toes in the front and shock absorber but I still require a little more cushion on the soles of my feet. I love the color and fit. I usually run in flatter shoes but this style did not disaapoint.

I bought these shoes about 4 months ago after owning the 25s. I love love love these shoes and the support they provide for running. However, they do not last very long. The soles of the shoes came off after running less than 100 miles in them. These are the only shoes that work for me, so I have to get another pair. I just wish they lasted longer for the price.

I've own dozens of ASICS and the Gel-Nimbus are my favorites. This is my second pair, and they're more comfortable than the first (24s). I broke my right foot a few years back when something heavy fell on top and since then walking gets painful but with these I can walk Magic Kingdom and my feet feel like they're on clouds. Highly recommend and I'm planning on getting another pair in a different color.

Soft, great cushion. Flexible and breathable, love this shoe
