Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Nimbus 15 Running Shoe:

I have metatarsalagia and morton's neuroma. I wear these shoes to run between 20-25 miles per week. They provide support and cushion and have a roomy toebox. Perfection!

Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Nimbus 15 Running Shoe:

Toebox is slightly larger than the older models.
I liked the asymetrical lacing....waiting for Asics to bring that back.

Great shoe for running on treadmill and running on pavement or track. Thank you, Asics, for the
positive improvements you have made to this shoe.
I am a happy runner.

I've been wearing the Nimbus for many years and wasn't really impressed with the 14 but the 15 seems a lot better!

Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Nimbus 15 Running Shoe:

I wish these had fit me better, because they were marshmallow-cushiony, which I enjoy. Unfortunately, they slipped around on my heel.

this is my 8th pair of Gel Nimbus. They are so comfortable and give me great support.

I purchased these for my mom who is a workaholic & rarely exercises...so, she has NEVER had the pleasure of experiencing a descent athletic shoe...she would always purchase sneakers without my dad or me (my dad was an avid runner turned swimmer & I'm a runner), so she'd purchase whatever was on sale & made her foot look smaller (size 10). So, since she is having KNEE REPLACEMENT surgery next week, it was paramount that she get a great shoe that would decrease her underpronation (her feet roll outward due in part to high arches). I confess I used - um - another website to order her shoes &, without realizing it, I purchased a stability+ shoe & her feet were so slanted, it looked like her feet were attempting to roll out of the sides of her shoes . . . I learned my lesson & turned to my home base for running shoes...RSS. I used the RSS "shoe dog" to sniff out that she needed a neutral+ shoe & selected this asics shoe and the brooks glycerine in WIDE width . . . both were too short on her foot (ordered 1/2 size larger than normal per the info on the website) & will return to get a size 11 (full size larger than normal), but OMG she could not believe that a shoe could be so comfortable & supportive even though her big toe was mashed up against the tip - just by looking at her walking, it was obvious that her foot did not roll out when stepping (neutralized that overpronation problem she always has in flat casual shoes). I just ordered the size 11 so they will be here in time for her recovery from surgery. The coral & white color is SO pretty. THANKS SO MUCH RRS - your website is awesome, your prices (as always) are the best), I love my VIP membership, & please send my mom's love to the shoe dog :)

I have been running for 8 years. I am a long distance runner and run 4 days a week. I run 2 marathons a year and several half marathons a year. I used to run in Adidas Boston Classic years ago before they stopped making them and found the Asics Nimbus to take the Boston Classics place. I recently bought the Nimbus 15's to try them so I could see if I liked the changes and if I didn't then I would stock up on the 14's. I tried them on a short run first and really thought they were comfortable, very cushiony and loved the bigger toe box. I had no aches and pains or blisters etc so I tried them for a second short run and had no issues. Decided to take them for a spin on a long run and 6 miles into my run I had major heel pain. I had absolutely no issues with my foot, heel, leg or anything up until that moment. I was on a slower run, didn't twist my ankle, land strange...nothing to explain my heel pain. I had to stop running on the spot and now the bursa on my heel is inflamed has taken me from running or even walking normal. The only explanation for what happened is the shoe. I did some research on bursitis and one of the possible causes is a shoe that has too much cushion. I was told that one of the other changes in the Nimbus 15 was they dropped the heel a little and I think the combo of that drop and the extra cushion has created major issues. Honestly, I thought the shoe was comfortable but I returned them right away. Just be aware that this is something that could happen. Extra cushion isn't always the best thing.

I've worn Gel-Nimbus for a few years, and this model isn't the same fit for me. Not sure what was changed in the Nimbus 15, but it doesn't feel comfortable to even walk in. I used to jog (30 years@20 miles a week) until achilles tendon surgery, so now I power walk@5 miles per hour. This shoe is stiff and lands hard, ungiving with a pronounced lump in the middle of the front sole,rubs on the top side of my feet. Had to send it back. Every few years when I think I have the perfect shoe, they mess with it and ruin it!

Great Sneaker

In my 16 years of 6-7 days/wk running I have tried every brand of running shoes out there. Some I stuck with for a while (New Balance 1220, Nike Vomero) and most I tried and gave up on quickly. That includes Asics. I remember trying the Nimbus about 12 or 13 years ago and finding them to be way too heavy. Well, I had been wearing Vomero 5's for a few years. Loved them like no other. All of my chronic injuries (tibial stress, runner's knee, ankle pain) were gone. However, I started running 1/2 marathons, and after training for the first one I started to notice lower back pain. It got to the point where my back would become weak by mile 5 or 6 of a training run, and my form became terrible. I was arching my back and it wasn't pretty (trust me, I have finish line pictures to prove it). At some point I moved on to the Vomero 6's, finding slight relief, but still not enjoying my running the way I used to. I gave up the half marathons and started on 10ks, still being in agony by the finish. I decided it may to time to think about another brand of shoes, and found the Nimbus to be the most similar to the Vomeros and to my surprise, they actually weigh less than the Vomeros. I guess Asics decided to lighten them up over the years. Well, all I can say is WOW. This shoe is beyond comfortable. Where the Vomero's were kind of clunky (looking almost like clown shoes) the Nimbus fit my foot like a slipper. I will say that the toe box is kind of narrow. But I have a very tiny foot and I know if I had gone with the wide, they would have been too big. I've only been running in them for a week, with a long run of only 5 miles, but so far, so good. The back pain is still there but I think it's residual from the Vomeros. Definitely not affecting my form and my speed is back to a 9-9:15 minute mile pace. I was up to 10:30-10:45 with the Vomeros. The cushioning is phenomenal, as is the flexibility. So, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the Nimbus will enable me to slowly creep back up to half marathons.

Had some pain when running before, no pain now.

Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Nimbus 15 Running Shoe:

This is such a great shoe! I have high arches and was getting a lot of pain in my lower legs with my old shoes. Since purchasing these running shoes my leg pain has all but disappeared and I have comfortably been able to run for longer.

I purchased half a size larger on the recommendation of previous reviews. I also chose the 2A width as my feet are narrow. They hold the bridge of my feet very well, but still have plenty of room in the toe box. They are probably the most comfortable running shoes I have ever owned! I would definitely recommend these shoes.

Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Nimbus 15 Running Shoe:

I have planters fast. and this is the only shoes that is really cushioned enough to be comfortable. Did care for the 14 but the 15 ins back on track. Love them

Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Nimbus 15 Running Shoe:

Absolutely LOVE the Asics Gel Nimbus--have run in them for years and have never been disappointed. Due to negative reviews, I stayed away from the Nimbus 14 and went with the 15's. No complaints here at all.

Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Nimbus 15 Running Shoe:

I am an instructor at a Marine Corps academy aboard Camp Pendleton and we are constantly running hills and pavement depending on the schedule. My nimbus 15's ease the pain on my joints and support my high arch. I was waiting for the 15's to come out because I was disappointed in the 14's, the cushion wore out to easily. The nimbus 15's live up to the hype, I run over 15 miles a week easily and so far my nimbus 15's let me cruise with ease! Lovem!

Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Nimbus 15 Running Shoe:

Comfortable toe box. Had previously been running in the Asics 2100 series; but the new 2000 didn't feel right. The Nimbus has more cushioning and accomodates my orthotics.

Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Nimbus 15 Running Shoe:

Very comfortable

Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Nimbus 15 Running Shoe:

I run 18-25 miles per week and four Half Marathons a year. I trained in the ASICS Cumulus 8-14. I then changed to a less cushioned minimal shoe. Not that there is anything wrong with the minimal shoes for races, but if I wear them for long training runs, I have sore knees. So I went back to ASICS and tried the Nimbus and it is great and the sore knees are gone. A very comfortable shoe, nice and wide in the toe box, and a good snug fit in the heel. Room for my custom orthotics. This shoe does run small, so order a half size up.

Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Nimbus 15 Running Shoe:

Great shoe for a heavy runner who does less than three miles, 3X week. Great cushioning and energy return - I have a bounce as soon as I hit the pavement. I have worn nothing but asics, but the gel nimbus 14 was awful and decided to try the brooks ghost 5, which I really like a lot but didn't get the same kind of energy return or bounce. Then I found the 15 and decided to give it a try based on the reviews. I'm keeping both shoes.
