Lightening is best for road running

These shoes really help me spread my body weight over the increased surface area. Light and spongy, really helped reduce my fatigue while running.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Some bugs

Great fit and perfect support

Of course, running shoes are designed for different types of running movements. My movement is "neutral" and these shoes still look amazing to me during my runs. I haven't run eight miles yet but I love these shoes and I'm sure I will continue to love them. They are also stylish and make me look really cool!

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Discontinued model

Very good running shoe

I didn't want to spend money on running shoes so I wear my son's used shoes. I started training more seriously and signed up to run a 1/2 marathon. I decided it was time to splurge and get myself a pair. They were perfect for racing and long runs. I need an extra pillow as my legs are a bit sore from being a bit older. They helped me get through it and my legs felt good.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Update available

Narrow Toe Box โ€“ Men's

Gel Nimbus 22 replaced with this one after 306 miles. My only complaint is that they already are. The ball of my foot is over the edge, which wasn't a problem with the GN 22. I was very surprised to read online reviews that the Elite 2 is wide. That's definitely not true. As far as I know, there are no wide options for the E 2. The cushioning is wonderful and a noticeable difference to my GN 22s which I absolutely adored. For reference, I average over 21 miles a week these days and have beenโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Sauber

Good boot but not for me

I overlooked that this shoe doesn't fit my pronation type (above) so I'm surprised it isn't mentioned in the description or shown in the photos; had to look elsewhere to catch it. However, they felt like a very sturdy, well-tailored, good-looking sneaker to wear and run. I ordered another ASICS running shoe this week. Returned gift card and no one gave me any indication that this would happen. Luckily I decided to order my stuff here, but it's been a few months since my last order. Veryโ€ฆ

Pros
  • This is a miracle
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Not the same as Nimbus

I've been wearing the ASICS Nimbus Gel since the beginning but wanted to try a different, more modern shoe. I needed a new pair of shoes and am now training for a half marathon. After thinking about trying a few other brands, I chickened out and ordered the Gel Nimbus Lite 2. I really like the shoes and they are comfortable. I ran for 3 weeks only to find that I had heel pain and my knees and hips hurt more after long runs than they did with the Nimbus 21. Went back to my original old boots and

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Unreliable

Fast Rebound Shoe

Male 5ft 7in 165lbs Size 9. I have been running every day for a long time but also spend time in the gym and therefore with my body weight. For me, the Gel Nimbus Lite 2 is a rebound shoe that almost immediately gets me running much faster than the Nimbus Gel 23 (a great lightweight casual shoe). Of course, the architecture between the two is completely different, with the possible exception of the FlyteFoam -midsole. but still cushion very well for higher speeds and have a rebound that putsโ€ฆ

  • Easy Fit

Shoes hot and blistering

I was very excited about this shoe as I have started running again after many, many years (I ran on the cross country team about ten years ago). After reading many reviews I chose these shoes for longer runs (hoping for cushioning and durability). Unfortunately I was very disappointed. First the advantages: The shoe is true to size, has a lot of cushioning and looks cool. Now for the cons: the shoes get very hot on my feet (if you're in a warmer climate I wouldn't even consider these shoesโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
