Review on πŸ‘Ÿ ASICS Women's Gel Nimbus Running Shoes in Peacoat by Walter Martin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

For love when God returns 16 and 18!

I've been wearing them since I was 12. I don't really like years with a weird halo because they are too tight in the toe area. The 18s were a motherly burden for me. Finally they were perfect! Got great reviews, everyone loved it. So what is Asics doing? Make them worse and worse with new generations. The 1919s and 20s were a complete train wreck. Nothing in terms of comfort compared to the old styles. 21 was a little better apart from the terrible box. I'm excited! I heard the ASIC is going back to the old Nimbus style for 22 years! Unless you have Fred Flintstone's flat feet, that's just awful. The Nimbus has always been a neutral shoe, but my Old Navy flip flops have plenty of support at the moment. I wore them around the house for an hour and my feet hurt so much. No arch support, nothing. They're a bit softer than previous trainwrecks, but have literally no bow support, and that's the point. I'm done with this company and these shoes. They only make it worse when the shoes have already been improved in previous models. I have a pair of 18s left, gotta enjoy it. I bought 6 pairs. As if I knew they would be the end of a once great shoe.

Pros
  • Rearfoot and forefoot GEL technology cushions impact during the impact and takeoff phases, allowing for multiplane motion as the foot transitions through the gait cycle.
Cons
  • updates available
