The Nimbus 27 felt uncomfortable particularly in the toe box. I size up in ASICS but this was still an issue. Im a 30-year ASICS wearer and am so disappointed in the evolution of the Nimbus. Ive tried to make the recent versions work but drew the line here (and am in Brooks Glycerin instead).

These shoes are comfortable, fluffy, and yet stable. I bought these shoes for my mom and then fell in love with them myself!

I really enjoy the comfort after you break them in! My only complaint is they are not slip resistant! I am a nurse and almost broke my neck from slipping ! For the price , they should be slip resistant.

Super comfy for healthcare workers. I had shin splints and tired feet and went to A Snails Pace for a foot scan. Turns out I needed a wide shoe with more support. I tried these on and immediately felt the difference. Im never wearing another shoe at work. These are pricey but worth it

I would rate these good for the cushion BUT after only 1 month, there are holes in both shoes on the tops & on the sides. For this kind of cost, they should last longer that 30 days.

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

I always get this shoe, for 20+ years. This is the first pair that has given me issue. The fabric around the top chafes my skin. The fabric on the tongue and around front of ankel rubs to the point of bleeding. Super weird and uncomfortable. Obviously I can wear different socks, but I've never had to. Hopefully this is a one time problem and you use quality fabric again in the future. Thanks.

They hurt at first. After a few days they feel better. Theyre okay. I bought 2 pairs. One online and one in store. Im returning the in store one. Super expensive.

the shoe is ok. I wear inserts and because of that, the shoes make a loud squeaking noise when I walk. Some years the gel shoe makes noise and some it doesn't. You used to make a shoe slightly wider(not to the point of wide width) that took care of this problem.

Too small and too narrow. And I ordered a half size bigger with a wide fit.

Finally - A narrow width Gel-Nimbus! These shoes fit perfectly. I just wish it came in more colors than black.

Ive been running in these for a month now after neglecting to buy new running shoes for years. After I walked for 20k steps 4 days straight at EDC LV, my knees needed some TLC when i walked and ran. These are the most comfortable shoe ive eve owned, and allow me to get more time on the treadmill/road than without. So worth the money.

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.
I'd also recommend:

Im not a runner. I have demolished knees from years of hard skiing and tap dancing. These shoes are the only ones that help me remain active with bad knees. Also great for standing all day.
