I love these shoes but the 25’s were much cushier. I don’t understand why they change shoes that are perfect. My main issue is how long these shoes last. I only get 300 miles on these shoe!

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.

Thought this would be a good upgrade from Cumulus 26. Not so. The outsole is terribly stiff/hard/loud. I had a fresh case of runner's knee immediately after my first run. Do not buy these as an experiment. If they're your thing, go right ahead.

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.

Actual tread on shoe gets thinner every year.Tread is only strips that don't even cover the bottom of the shoe.

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!

I was happy to get this before the 27 disappeared. It's probably six months to a year until I wear them regularly.

I loved the fit and feel of my Nimbus 26. After 400 miles it was time to start breaking in another pair. The NImbus 27 have an even better fit and feel. Thanks Asics.

Incredibly comfy. I cant even tell Im wearing anything. Only reason not 5 stars is because they are kinda goofy looking. That huge white puff on each sneaker looks like strapped two mattresses to my feet. But comfort over style.
