Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Nimbus 27

Asics had a perfect shoe in the Nimbus 26 so I ordered the 27. Why did you add more cushion, it makes the shoe unstable. Why did you make the wide even wider. My foot flopped around in the shoe. It took me years to find a shoe that worked and now you made unnecessary changes and I'm back to the drawing board. Maybe you should talk to real people before making changes.

First pair of ASICS and they’re wonderful! Plenty of toe box room (I usually buy men’s because their colors are better and they start with a wide) and so squishy! My typical shoe size fit perfectly

These felt like my foot was rocking forward as I walked. I liked that but my foot was turning in with every step I took. So the arch support wasn’t there. I returned them.

The fit of these shoes felt true to size. I absolutely love these shoes. I've worn several types of Asics shoes for many years. My last favorite pair were the gel-kayano 28 but I knew I needed a new pair since I've been more active. I ordered 4 pairs to try on before I decided on which ones I'd purchase. The Gel-Nimbus 27 is so comfortable, very cushy gives me bounce in every step and has alleviated a lot of foot pain. I highly recommend these!

It does not fit like the older models of Nimbus 27. The Nimbus 26 was to tight and the 27 is too roomy. I don't like this new style. I purchase the Nimbus 18 - 24 and am sorry that style is no longer available. I returned them.

Awesome shoes with a terrific fit and feel!

FINALLY a narrow shoe with cushioning. I stopped purchasing Asics many years ago because the durability was poor (the treads and inside near the ankles fell apart quickly). I don't know if that will happen again, but Brooks doesn't make a highly cushioned narrow width model, so I'm trying Asics again. So far, so good--but it's only been 50 miles.

Great shoes. The toe box was just too narrow for me even in the wide.

Great ASICS shoe, I will pick the Nimbus over all other styles. Color and fabric upper are great for everyday walking! Love them!

I use orthotics in my shoe so the gel nimbus is the perfect workout shoe for me. It’s a neutral footbed and handles my orthotic beautifully plus has amazing support. After wearing the gel cumulus for over 15 years I have successfully switched to the nimbus due to the extra support which I need as I age. I love it!!

Perfect fit, and comfortable.

A comfortable and durable sneaker. It is my third or fourth pair.

fits great, the best walking shoe

The shoe was comfortable when walking except where it was hitting my ankle.

Sadly, have to return these. I wear orthotics and my left heel was slipping out causing my sock to slide off my heel. I have two pairs of the Gel Nimbus 26 and they're perfect. Ordering another pair and returning the 27s. I really wanted these to work.

I've worn Gel-Kayanos for years and wanted to try something cushier. Now I love my Gel-Nimbus 26 and wanted another color. There was only one choice, so I ordered a 27. Unfortunately, both the cushioning and fit are different than the 26. There seems to be less cushioning in the ball of the foot where I like it, and the toe box seems slightly narrower - to a point where it irritates my big toe. I returned them.

The jury is still out on these. I've worn Gel Kayanos for years and then tried and fell in love with the cushiness of the Gel Nimbus 26. Just got the Gel Nimbus 27 today because I wanted another color and they just don't fit the same as the 26. The toe box is narrower and m big toe hits the side when I walk. The bottom seems thicker and harder than the 26, too. Maybe I'll see if ASICS has the 26 in another color, since Zappos only has navy left. For $165, I'm not making any excuses for my shoes. They need to be perfect.
