1 star for customer service and company policy.
Shoes are 5 star.
Asics offers a 10% discount for first time customers which is a nice touch.
I bought a pair of Gel Nimbus 27s in size 11. They were too tight so I inquired about exchanging them for the wider width.
Asics doesnt allow for that option so I asked about receiving the same 10% discount on a wider pair of the same shoes.
Asics doesnt allow that either. I wasnt asking for a free pair but for the same discount on the same shoes.
A customer service rep and supervisor informed me of the companys illogical and anti customer policy.
Asics gives a gift them takes it back.
Asics needs to do better. I wonder if New Balance and Brooks has the same level of customer disservice and bad policy.

I had hopes for this shoe as from things I read it was to be a bit on the wider side. Unfortunately the 4E is still not even close to other shoes on the market. I paid full price for these shoes but my refund was 15.00 less.

There is a lot more room in the toe and cushion compared to the previous model.

Bought these two weeks ago and so far they are the comfiest shoes Ive ever had. Super light weight and the cushioning is amazing. I have flat feet and they have been great for me so far.

The Gel-Nimbus 26 is a much better version and $60 less expensive.

They are bigger fitting than the 25 and 26 in the toe area. Not a fan of that.

Did my research, tried several different brands and styles, these are by far the most comfortable.

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.

something stiff in the achilles area that has worn a spot on my heel and through the shoe. Zappos says they only take back unused shoes but how would I know it was defective until I wore them. Not acceptable.

For the price I would expect better quality. Felt cheap and there was cushion, but not in a supportive way. Wouldn't recommend - especially at this price point.

I have had the ASICS Gel Nimbus for a few years now, with my most recent being the Nimbus 26. I LOVED the Gel-Nimbus 26 and was excited to get the Nimbus 27's. Trying them on these are completely uncomfortable. The toe box feel more narrow to the point it hurts my toes. The material is also much less giving and supple than the Nimbus 26's. Overall I am completely disappointed and will continue to try to find the 26's on other websites.
I honestly don't understand the point of redesigning the fit of an already amazing shoe. Hopefully they make it right in the future.
