ASICS Women's Gel-Nimbus 26 Running Shoe

Shoes are confortable, I have the ascis 27, they recomended this for plantar fasciitis. They give good support around the arch and ankle a bit more snug on the upper part of the shoe . Nice cushion on the heel but good and stronger support.

Bought these after seeing ,multiple recommendations on TikTok. I will say this is the most I've ever spent on a shoe, and was well worth the money. I bought these to start my new PCT job and I work 12 hour shifts, and do about 10k steps or more per day. These are so comfortable and I am so happy I spent the money. I did have an issue though with an open stitch in by my pinky toe. I have the black and white pair, and always wear black socks until one day I didn't and looked down and saw my sock through a small hole. I don't know what happened or when, but I did reach out to Asics and provided pictures of the issue and they helped me out a great deal. Was able to get a new pair and super satisfied with that! While they are not waterproof, they do hold up well when showering patients! Only complaint- they are SO squeaky! I don't know if its the floor cleaner at my hospital or what, but everyone always knows when I am coming down the hall lol

Best shoes I’ve ever owned for all-day comfort. I wore them during a two-week trip to Japan, walking nonstop and hopping on subways between cities, and my feet never felt tired. Truly a game-changer for travel and everyday wear.

There’s simply no comparison between the Gel-Nimbus 26 and earlier versions of the Gel-Nimbus. The earlier models hold up far better in terms of durability. The key reason is the design and material change, which explains why I (and many others) have experienced holes forming in the Gel-Nimbus 26 within the first couple months of wear.Here is a breakdown for you:1. Material DifferenceThe Gel-Nimbus 26 (knit upper):The knit is designed for a sock-like fit and comfort, but knit fabrics tend to stretch and fray under repeated flexion. Without protective overlays in the toe area, the material wears out quickly.2. Flex & Friction Stress-When you walk or run, the toe box bends and creases with every step.-Mesh tends to “give” a bit without tearing, while knit fibers separate and thin out over time, especially at stress points.-If your toe shape or gait causes even light upward pressure, the knit upper is more vulnerable.3. Design Trade-Off-ASICS likely emphasized lightweight breathability and modern aesthetics with the knit, but sacrificed structural reinforcement.-The Gel-Nimbus 26 lacks some of the durability elements (extra layers, synthetic overlays) that earlier mesh versions had.4. Why the Issue Shows Quickly-Knit + no overlay = faster hole development.-That’s why you’re seeing reviews of holes within just months of wear — it’s not heavy use, it’s simply the material/design choice.In short:The Gel-Nimbus 26’s softer knit upper prioritizes comfort but can’t withstand the same flexing pressure — especially at the toe box.

These shoes are quite comfortable and stable. They have great padding. The fit is good and they are true to size.. The shoe quality is good. The colors are just as pictured.

These were a game changer for me! I love carbon plated shoes but they are SOO expensive. These gave me adequate cushion for running impact but also the stability and support I was looking for.I got a running injury prior to these, due to not getting new shoes when I needed them and they really helped with the recovery and understanding my running foot placement as a newer runner. I wouldn’t say they are race day shoes but definitely everyday or longer distance with the cushion and support they provide!I gave them a 4 star because they are a bit heavy. Other than that they are great! And honestly, a little extra weight in my everyday running shoes Isn’t that big of a deal to me, if it means support, comfort, and functionality.

Super comfortable for standing all day. I am on my feet for at least 8 hours a day and these are the only shoes that I buy now. I’m on my third pair. The only problem that I’ve encountered is that I got a small hole in the toe box area. To prevent this I’ve put a reinforcement patch in the toe area which I ordered from Amazon. It has adhesive on one side and you can’t cut to fit where you need it and just stick it on. It stays in place and keeps my toe from rubbing through. So other than that, a great shoe for all day wear. These run true to size and the blue color is great, gray is also nice, but it is a really light gray.

Great shoe for being on your feet for an extended time. very comfortable, and shoe was on sale too,to it all off. Definitely recommend.
