I tried on at least a dozen running shoes from many brands and these were by far the most comfortable. I have narrow heels that slip out of a lot of shoes, but the design of these keeps them in place. They look great and I'm loving them.

I love the changes you made to this model. Now leave it alone...it's great. Often you change it again and then I don't like the changes so I end up running around looking for the older model that I like until you make changes again. You change up this shoe WAY too often.

Very comfy shoes, slim not too chunky. They have a cushion on the back of the heel which makes your feet not rub. Very good purchase

I like the cushioning and support of the shoe very much. The one thing I did not like was the eyelets that the laces go through - found them awkward and tended to twist the laces. Would to see you use the same eyelets as in the Nimbus 25.

I think these are the most comfortable shoes Ive ever owned! Ive had a lot of different feet problems. They seem to even give me more energy! Asics seem to be the only shoe that really help me be able to walk further and stand longer. I highly recommend them. I love them!

They are so cushioned that they feel kind of wobbly when just walking, and my ankle has started hurting.

The cushion is fantastic! My feet don't hurt after 12-hour shifts, plus they are really cute!

I bought this shoe after reading reviews to help with my severe planters fasciitis. I was in so much pain and discomfort and had tried so many other brands. My doctor suggested a few popular brands (Asics being one of them). After being at my wits end I did some research and rolled the dice. I purchased these to work. LET ME TELL YOU, I'm so glad I did. These shoes have saved me from physical therapy and possible surgery. My leg, thigh and foot pain has subsided and I can walk with ease again. This will definitely be the brand I wear from now on.

I run about 15 miles a week and have always worn Hoka Bondis (wide). I wanted to try something new and after doing some research I settled on the Gel-Nimbus. I absolutely love them. I may never go back to Hokas. The style, fit and comfort are all 10/10.

Most uncomfortable shoes I've ever worn. Made my toes go numb and me hating my life even after an hour of my nursing shift.

I had a pair of Nimbus that I loved and thought this would be the same. They rubbed my heel with no show socks, something that never happened before.
This new design is terrible and ugly. Go back to two versions before. Wish I read the reviews before buying!

I bought at marathon sports and the soles started falling off after less than 70 miles. I am so sad as they were my favorites :(

I am not sure what Gel-Nimbus version I started with, but I have been wearing the Nimbus for over 15 years. These new super foam nimbus simply dont have the heel support as previous versions. If they arent improved, Ill have to find another shoe to wear, it is that noticeable. Dont get me wrong, they are like being on a cloud, but Id much rather squishy mud that locks in my heel.

The sneakers are good, but they have a label on the inside that hurts the foot, quite uncomfortable. After 1 month of use it left marks on my foot.

Beyond amazing. I did a lot of research before buying these and they have been amazing so far. Walking, running, working long hours. Amazing support. My feet feel amazing after my runs.

Leaving a poor review for the customer service. I received the shoe I ordered and tried the shoe on to see if it fit. I was very excited for these shoes. I thought they fit and took them out to run. After running I realized that these shoes are not a good fit and I may need to size up. The policy online states that gently used shoes may be accepted for return. I call my local ASICS store and they said that they would not be able to accept my return since I bought the shoe online, and recommended I call customer service. I call customer service and they direct me to visit my nearest store to return the shoe. I call my store again to tell them that customer service directed me to come to the store and they stated again that they would not take it. Now Im stuck with a $150+ shoe with no resolution. Keep in mind that the nearest store to me is about 30 minutes away and very out of the way for me. Would not recommend buying ASICS due to their horrible customer service experience and lack of adherence to their own, published, PUBLIC policy.

I love Aspics and this is my second pair. This pair doesn't fit over the top of my foot very well. Possibly because I have a high instep. But I'm keep them because I still like them.

The shoe hurt my heel, after trying it out for a few days I got terrible blisters. The shoe is stiff and heavy and lacks stability. Used to love the old discontinued nimbus.
Oh and within the week the shoe also started to tear not worth iy

So comfortable. I dont like how the shoestrings are so tiny they get folded up. The tab on the back where you pull seems like it might stretch and break. Im always worried it might snap. I would buy another pair though because they are so comfortable and truly good for running. I ran my first 5 k in them! Highly recommend. Just had to give an honest opinion about those 2 small things.
