I have a wide foot and it was too small in the width of the shoe. Asics changed how their shoes fit.

Very comfortable, the gel insoles are very soft. Great for walking, too soft for me to run in, but I still like these shoes overall.

Shoes taper in at the toe, classic design flaw for human feet. The wide width option does not resolve this problem. Having said that, otherwise, the shoes are incredibly comfortable and cushiony during running. THey just cram my big toe and pinky toe after running for a while. Also, the shoes have a major design flaw around the top that hugs your ankle: it's essentially a funnel for small gravel/dirt and rocks to go into your show while running. THe only way to avoid this is using gaiters.

I love these shoes but they only last 300 miles! I run 7 miles every day so that is not long enough. In this economy.

I only get 300 miles out of these shoes. The area around my ankle gets debris built up in it.

The fit was as advertised. I've been wearing Asics Nimbus for almost 50 years. They never disappoint. Great for running or walking.

True to size. She felt like it had more cushioning than I anticipated. Very comfortable! I would definitely buy them again.

These shoes are comfortable but my only issue is I only get about 300 miles. Wish they would come out with a more durable shoe.

Only shoe for me: Have been running in the Nimbus for 20 years. 40-50 miles per week. Heavier runner. Tend to have a long life and the cushion I need.

BEST CUSHIONED NEUTRAL RUNNING SHOE EVER: Cushion made on heavenly clouds! Not exagerating...I have ran many many miles in NB Fresh Foam V3 and believed NB were softer than Hoka's Stinson 5 & 6. THEN this experience with Asics Gel Nimbus 27 proved to be a cushioning level in league of its own. WOW....cushy, light and responsive. I normally run in Men size 9.5 but had to size-down 1/2 size and the 9's fit perfectly. Best road shoes ever! I highly recommend this running shoe and paired mine with Xpand laces for a superior fit. You will LOVE these.

Love these shoes! Very comfortable for my runs. I really prefer the shoes like gel-kinetic or Kensei because they last longer but they aren’t making these. The unisex sizing doesn’t work for me because they are too big!
