My go-to shoes. Plush cushioning for my painful feet, wide toe box and good durability.

Thick heel, rocker style, very comfortable. Material of the upper is lightweight, perfect for hot weather.

Fit and size correct. I like the flap on top because it is stretchy and doesn't hurt the top of my foot

The gel cushioning is fantastic, but the sneaker is too bulky for the average to narrow-sh foot. The sizing is off. It is on the heavier side due to the bulkiness of the shoe, but not terrible if you have a wider, fatter foot. This shoe is perhaps perfect for a bigger, heavier individual.

I have 2 knee replacements. This is the only sneaker I've found that is perfect, bouncy, light, supportive, and no orthotic inserts needed! Nimbus rules

I always size up from a 9 to a 10 when buying Asics. it has been that way for me for many years. I love the comfort and cushioning of the Gel Nimbus. I do have to say that for the first time in many years of buying Asics, a hole appeared in my left toe pretty early in the life of these shoes. Hopefully that was a one-off. Great shoes.

I would say these become amazingly comfortable, but you have to get over the initial break-in of them. Unlike the old Asics, these have a tighter elastic stretch once your foot is in them. So they are very tight on the foot. Over time it loosens up. But initially it is a little uncomfortable. As far as arch support and springiness, there is a lot of cushion.

The shoes fit well. I didn't like the string holes, I am kind of picky!

I have worn Asics for many years and had recently tried other brands. My plantar fasciitis flared up and my Podiatrist recommended this brand and style specifically. I ordered three different brands and styles that he recommended and this was the winner. Of course, it's also the same brand and style I used to wear. They are amazingly comfortable. My orthotics fit inside perfectly. Highly recommend.

Wearing these shoes feels kind of like being weightless! Don't hesitate. I bought these when I found out the Hoka Bondi 8s I wanted weren't available in my wide width, anywhere. I have no regrets! The only downside I've found is not in the comfort or wear ability, but in trying to keep the shoes clean. I've barely worn them running errands, cooking Thanksgiving Dinner, etc. and have been frustrated in how hard it is to keep them looking fresh and new. I did scotch guard them before wearing to help with this, but I can't tell it really helped. The problem areas are on the top of the shoe where my toes are evident. Maybe the fabric is too thin, or I should have purchased a darker pair, but I'm keeping these because they are so wonderful to wear - smudges or not! The next pair I buy will be dark.

I like these in wide even though I don't usually get wide. These are some of the most comfortable running shoes I've had. Been wearing asics for years and I prefer these to my previous models.

This version of the nimbus is a happyily slightly less wide/oversized front end compared to last version. Also, I feel a little more supportive. Otherwise this shoe has been my go to running shoe for a number of years - love them. I run regularly 3-5 times a week 2-8 miles per week and am happy with them!

These are the most comfortable shoes I have worn in a while. I love the gel cushion in the heels and forefoot. I purchased a pair for myself and my mother.
