1.	Jennifer rated this product 5 stars Fri, February 22,2008: I have a medium arch, very slight outward pronation and I love these shoes. The cushioning is superior. I feel like I'm running on air.

2.	blister_fever rated this product 1 star Sat, February 16,2008: I've been a GT-2000 series wearer for years. I "upgraded" to the Nimbus recently and am totally disappointed in this shoe. There's little cushioning and I've developed huge blisters under the front ball of both feet! For $100+ this shoe is a huge waste of money. I'm going back to the 2000 series...

3.	Mary rated this product 4 stars Fri, January 11,2008: I love this shoe. I have worn the Gel Nimbus for the past couple of years. However, the advice to order a half size up did not work in my favor. My previous Gel Nimbus shoes were all 9's (which is what size I normally wear). The 9 1/2's I ordered have caused me foot and calf pain, because they ar...

4.	5'4" 115lbs efficient female runner rated this product 5 stars Sat, January 05,2008: I'm an efficient runner with normal to high arches who overpronates slightly when I walk but not really when I run (I cannot wear stability shoes for distances over 3-4 miles without them causing hip or knee pain.) I was having problems finding a good shoe that didn't cause me blisters or joint pro...

5.	AAM rated this product 5 stars Thu, December 13,2007: I have high arches and have had heel problems in the past -- this shoe is a dream. I had been using the GT2110 and all the previous iterations of that shoe, the Nimbus put that shoe to shame. No complaints -- they are comfortable and durable. Did need to go up 1/2 as RRS recommends.

6.	Joanne rated this product 2 stars Wed, December 05,2007: The toe box on this shoe is too wide; I have to cinch it up so tight, the upper wrinkles and bunches. I'll have to keep looking...

7.	Andria rated this product 5 stars Sat, December 01,2007: I absolutely love this shoe! Due to hallux rigidus/bunion on my right foot, I was an extreme supinator and this shoe was the first I could run long distances in without a stress fracture on my 5th metatarsal. I had surgery to fix my right foot and am starting to wear regular shoes again. I am bac...

8.	Jennifer rated this product 5 stars Wed, November 14,2007: These are the best shoes I've worn so far and I've tried several. I like the way Asics hugs your foot. These have great cushion. They are light weight too. I'm training for a half marathon amd wear these both on the treadmill and the road. If you are going to run a lot it is best to invest in a good...

9.	sunbunny rated this product 1 star Thu, November 01,2007: Couldn't wear them for a run longer then 5 miles without issues. I loved the 8's but HATE the 9s. The ball of my foot was getting blisters (toe box is wider) and the cushioning is now where near the 8s. Once my knees starting bothering me (never had this issue) they went back to RRS and I got anothe...

10.	Val Schirru rated this product 4 stars Wed, October 10,2007: I too am experiencing blistering near the ball of my foot on one side. I think perhaps it's the stitching on one of the sides. Going to return & try another pair as they are so comfortable and feel wonderful but I can't keep running if after only 3 times they are giving me blisters. I've been wear...

11.	Maria rated this product 4 stars Sat, September 22,2007: Nimbus 9 is a big improvement over 8. I like almost everything about this shoe. My only complaint is that my usual size 8 is bigger than previous models. If I knew, I would buy 7.5.

12.	tri2win rated this product 5 stars Mon, September 03,2007: This shoe feels perfect. I have been a Nimbus wearer through five colors. No breaking in necessary. Took me to my best time ever in the NYC triathlon!

13.	Amanda rated this product 3 stars Wed, August 29,2007: Very comfortable/cushy but having problems with blisters just behind ball of foot on bottom of foot. not the kind of thing i can run a marathon with. hopefully it will imporve because everthing else about shoe is great

14.	ckings rated this product 4 stars Tue, August 21,2007: The Nimbus 9 is a huge improvement from the 8. I no longer experience the bleeding/blisters from the seams. The shoe has great support. Felt great throughout a 14 mile run.

15.	Diane rated this product 4 stars Wed, August 15,2007: I tried on the Nimbus 8 but did not buy. A few months later I tried on the 9, this shoe felt good on at the store. The heel is higher than I like. I must be between sizes at the 7.5 was a little too short but feel the 8 is just little to big. That said, the cushioning is good, ride feels good. W...

16.	Kristen rated this product 5 stars Tue, August 07,2007: The best shoe I have run in. Awesome fit and the shoe is the most comfortable.

17.	MC rated this product 5 stars Wed, July 18,2007: It's like running on a cloud!!! Who would have thought something so cushiony would be so supportive? I've finally found THE ONE!!!

18.	flavia rated this product 5 stars Sun, June 17,2007: My new Nimbus 9 just arrived and I went out today for a 9 mile run. It is a wonderful shoe! Much, much better than the nimbus 8. Not only lighter but the seams that were bothering me on the nimbus 8 , are not there anymore... great shoe.

19.	KM rated this product 5 stars Tue, June 05,2007: Nimbus wearers... This is the update that we have been waiting for. Great cushioning- great fit all over.

20.	Runner rated this product 5 stars Mon, May 28,2007: Love the shoe! I've had a lot of trouble with shoes lately especially with the long training runs for marathons. I took my first run in this shoe this morning. -loved it. The back is high enough for my inserts so my heel doesn't slip out.

21.	Rikke rated this product 5 stars Sun, May 27,2007: Nimbus is back!!! I love the Nimbus 9. I loved Nimbus 7 and hated 8 (made me abandon Asics until 9 came out). Nimbus 9 has the very cushy feeling and fits like a glove, that I was missing in the 8.

22.	Lina rated this product 5 stars Sat, May 26,2007: I am a Nike person but they discontinued my shoe and I was forced to cross-over. I am so glad that I found the Nimbus. I am very happy with the high arch support and cushioning. It fits like a glove, for my feet! I highly recommend this shoe!

23.	Jessica rated this product 2 stars Tue, May 22,2007: I've been wearing the gel nimbus for a few years now and am very disappointed in this remodel. My usual size is a bit too big and the shoe fits differently overall. I find it heavier and clunkier. It seems to come up higher on the ankle too, which isn't comfortable and gave me a blister. I love the...
