  • My wife loved it
Size: 10 Color: White/Light Ube
The shoe is very comfortable, lightweight, and soft, making it a great choice for walking and light runs. It feels smooth on the feet and works well for everyday use and shorter distances. I bought it at Playmakers Sports, which is a reliable specialty running store, and that made a big difference because of the proper fitting and guidance. Overall, it’s a solid option if comfort is your priority, especially for low-impact activities. ... show more

  • I Accidentally Became a Running Shoe Scientist
Size: 9 Color: Fawn/Birch
I am normally a size 8, and I have not bought new tennis shoes in about five years, which explains why my current pair (Saucony Ride 13s) are basically emotional support animals at this point. They’ve been with me through errands, chaos, and my very convincing “I’ll work out tomorrow” era. But now I’m officially doing more walking, running-ish attempts, treadmill sessions, AND I just acquired a new job where I’ll be standing on my feet all day, so it was time to enter the Running Shoes Thunderdome. After doing my first round of research on a very trustworthy source—aka TikTok, I found a runner giving shoe advice, who said with full confidence, that you must size up a full size on your running shoes because your feet will swell. So naturally, I listened to her because she looks like she owns electrolytes. I ordered a size 9. These Gel Nimbus: Easily the most comfortable of the five pairs I ordered. They’re like walking on warm mashed potatoes. Soft, cushy, forgiving, zero arch poking me like a judgmental Pilates instructor. The other shoes I tried and immediately sent back to their creators were: • Hoka Clifton 10 (my feet said “ma’am, why?”) • Saucony Guide 18 (firm like my mother’s opinions) • Brooks Glycerin Max (had feelings about my arch) • New Balance 1080 (also had feelings about my arch) This whole process taught me a valuable truth: I prefer a neutral shoe with no arch drama. If the shoe tries to “correct” me, guide me, or offer unsolicited arch support? Absolutely not. Now, about sizing: The size 9 Nimbus don’t feel too big at all… but they do look like I borrowed my husband’s shoes. So I ordered the 8.5 too, because at this point I’m performing a full PhD dissertation on cushioning versus toe room. In the photos, you can see the size 9 Nimbus on one foot and my ancient Saucony Ride 13s (size 8) on the other foot. One foot is ready for a marathon, the other is ready for a Target run. And because I’m going all-in on this foot-comfort journey, I also ordered Feetures Elite Ultra-Light Cushion ankle socks. (Which I have on in the attached pictures.) If we’re committing to luxury, I refuse to let a crusty old sock ruin the experience. For Round Two of the Tournament, I’ve also ordered: • Brooks Ghost Max 3 • Hoka Bondi 9 • Saucony Triumph 22 • Nike Vomero Plus (loved the Vomero 18s in store) • On Cloudrunner 2 I will report back with my findings once my living room becomes a certified Running Shoe Testing Lab. But for now: Gel Nimbus is the reigning champion of Comfortland. If you love soft shoes, hate intrusive arch support, and want something that can handle walking, jogging, treadmill-ing, and existing—these might be your soulmate. *************** Update 12/2/25 **** One pair from round 2 came in yesterday that made me change my mind about the asics… the asics have moved to second place against the Brooks Ghost max 3. IN LOVE!!! (Keep reading… this change of opinion was short lived.) Today the saucony triumph 22s came in, which I ordered a 7.5 due to a review saying to size DOWN in those, HOWEVER I wish I would have only sized “down” to my actual size of a size 8. The 7.5 fit, but an 8 would have been better. However, I will not be repurchasing them in an 8 to experiment because I already know I don’t like them as much as the brooks ghost max 3 (shown in last pictures with asics and by themselves. Ordered in coconut, size 9- as a true size 8, the size 9 in the brooks ghost max 3 is perfection.) ***update 12/4/25 I spoke too soon about the Books taking first place. I was excited. They were cute. Cuter than the asics for sure. But after wearing them for a few hours, I did start to become aware of the inner arch support. They aren’t as comfy as the asics. Better looking, yes. And if you’re looking for a shoe that’s a little springier with a light arch support, the Brooks ghost max might be for you. Still very comfy, but apparently the mid foot structure help isn’t needed for my feet because it becomes uncomfortable after a while. Maybe I just need to get used to it, but with the asics it has been nothing but comfort. The other shoes in my testing experiment arrived as well. I did get the asics in an 8.5, which I do like better than the 9. So if you’re going to size up, I’d recommend only a half size. Compared against the Nike vomero plus- the Nikes are more stylish/better looking. Bouncier, also very comfortable, more responsive, and a very good competition. I had to put a Nike on one foot and ASICS on the other and walk around to really decide. As far as comfort- asics won again. Compared to the On Cloudrunner 2- not a competition. ASICS is more comfortable hands down. But the cloudrunners were super cute. Compared to the Hoka Bondi 9- again no comparison. The Bondis hurt my ankle bones almost immediately. Instant reject. These ASICS beat out every other shoe I tried in my experiment to find the best for me. Hope this helps. ... show more

  • LOVE…so comfy
Size: 8.5 Color: White/Glacier Grey
Great walking shoes, I have walked NYC, Disney and so much more! These shoes are so cushy and comfy yet supportive and overall great!

  • Awesome cushion!
Size: 9.5 Color: White/Fawn
After more than 10 years without buying another pair of ASICS, I decided to give it a try to the Gel-Nimbus 27 looking for durability and comfort. I am never disappointed with this brand, shoes look beautiful and indeed deliver what they promised. Light weight construction with great arch support, comfortable to walk or to run. Good quality for the money!! Highly recommended ... show more

  • Not as good as ASICS other shoes
Size: 10 Color: Nature Bathing/Guava
I’m a nurse and have worn multiple pairs of ASICS Noosa Tri shoes. They’ve always fared well and kept my feet comfortable. These, not so much. I’m aware they’re not branded as nursing shoes but I figured I’d try a new style from ASICS. While these are indeed comfortable, the colors are great, they a lightweight and fit well, they do hurt my feet after only a few months wear. I stopped using them for work and now use them day to day. They’d work great for running and the gym, but since I used them on concrete floors I don’t want to cross them over to the gym. ... show more

  • Love them!
Size: 9.5 Color: Cream/Edo Purple
Love them! Great for jogging and walking indoors and out. Very cushy and my knees have not bothered since wearing them for running. I was worried the toe box would be too to small but it’s just as comfortable for me as altras. I sized up a half size because I always do in running shoes, but I think my normal size would have been fine. Hopefully they hold up well. ... show more

  • The most comfortable shoes I have ever worn in my life!
Size: 9 Color: Stillwater/Cream
I love these so much they are my standard against what I measure every other shoe now. They are like walking on gently bouncing clouds with every step. About me & foot conditions: I’m a 5’4” woman and I’m not a skinny gal at all, and I hold most of my weight in my hips and thighs. I have wide feet, fallen arches/flat feet, and my big toe turns inward in a hallux valgus/bunions way. Where you land on your foot when walking or running: I’m a heel striker when walking and forefoot/midfoot when I’m going downstairs. I don’t feel a bit of impact either way. Toebox: roomy vertical and horizontal so toes can spread and wiggle. Cushioning: Fluffy foamy goodness! But it doesn’t make the shoes feel heavy. The midfoot cushioning is a teensy bit less than the heel. It’s also what gives you the energy return; a nice little rebound with each step nothing crazy but it sure feels good. The heel cushioning is around 40mm and that is a marshmallowy thing of beauty. You do not feel impact on your bones and muscles when moving. Heel drop is 8mm and feels great to me. Cost: I haven’t bought sneakers or athletic shoes in over a decade and apparently more squishy, comfortable support, the higher the price may run. So it may seem like a lot, it feels like the new normal. Arch support: lovely for flat feet and or small arches. It says it’s good for higher arches but they weren’t too high for me. They hug your ankle and provide stability but it’s not over done. Just enough keep you going Quality: I’ve had them for a few weeks now and they haven’t gotten dirty and held up well. It’s my first pair of ASICS but it certainly won’t be my last. If they fall apart on me I’ll update. ... show more

  • Great running shoe!
Size: 8 Color: Dark Pink Clay/Orange Glow
Super lightweight. Amazing cushioning. I tend to run on the outside of my feet and this shoe helps with that. I also have very high arches and my feet feel supported. I have always loved Asics - the only shoe I have found that keep my knees from hurting. Such a great shoe! I wear 7.5 but purchased an 8 to have plenty of toe room and they fit perfectly 👌 ... show more
