Long-time buyer of ASICS, and especially the Gel-nimbus series. The version 27 is a convenient and comfortable shoe for walking.. BUT...
While usually my past gel nimbus have lasted through trips, hundreds of hours of walking and generally hold up well over time, this particular model was destroyed with mild use in 3 months.
The inner walls are torn in both shoes at the back and the gel underneath is already worn out in many places, which is unacceptable for a €150 shoe in such a short period.
This is not enough to change how much I believe in ASICS, but it does make me have concerns and I am taking a break from this particular shoe series by switching to the Novablast 5.

    After 3.5 months it got a hole in the front, I took it to the store where I bought it (Crete), he sent it to Athens where they supply them from and they didn’t replace it!!! Now the other shoe is about to get a hole in the same spot. Never again Asics.

    Very comfortable, but unfortunately like all the latest Nimbus, the interior and also the exterior wear out. I switched to On Cloud, equally comfortable and more durable

    I bought them a year and something ago and so far I've run about 120 km. For walking, they're amazing, you don't even feel like you're wearing shoes. If you have knee or back issues, you'll be saved. However, for running, especially on asphalt, I notice that after the first 2 km the sole hardens and starts to tire you out. As athletic shoes, the fit is perfect, at least for me, and they're durable even off road, but they're really for walking, not for running, so they're expensive. My next pair will probably be Saucony.

    The shoe is very pleasant and soft but it has a very narrow fit and you definitely need half to one size bigger than what you usually wear, and don't be afraid because the upper part is like an elastic sock and it hugs the foot quite well.

    I liked them so much that I got them in 3 colors. They helped me a lot so that my feet don't hurt when walking. I have a problem with arthritis and these turned out to be the best choice. The truth is you get what you pay for and these turned out to be very good. I also have them in red and green. Especially the black ones, I wear almost every day and they have more than paid off. Months now and nothing has happened to them

    After owning Nimbus 25 and 27, here are my thoughts:
    - Comfortable for daily use and running.
    - Over the course of a year, there is a high chance they will tear or get holes...
    - After a year, the gel sole will harden significantly, making the shoe unusable.

    With a bit of research on runrepeat.com, I ended up choosing other shoes.

    Unfortunately, they tore on the side at the little toe after almost 7 months of almost daily use. I took great care of them!
    Other than that, very soft and comfortable shoe.

    I am very satisfied! My job involves standing, walking on ground with dirt and stones, walking on stairs, and generally I use them a lot. I have had them for about 4 months and they seem to hold up well. The feeling is like walking on a cloud or something fluffy and soft anyway. They have very good shock absorption. I highly recommend them for running, standing, walking, and everyday use.

    Good: more rounded line than the previous model (nimbus 25), aesthetically pleasing
    Neutral: same sole as the previous model
    Bad: very cheap fabric quality at the toe of the shoe. It developed a hole above the big toe after one and a half months (with daily use), while the nimbus 25 that I have for 2 years are still intact at this spot (with daily use).

    From size 25 I went to 27, I have had them for 3 days, I consider the first ones more comfortable. I got them for 197 euros for walking and for knee and back pain. I will update in 1 month...

    They are perhaps the most comfortable shoes of the Nimbus series that I have bought so far! If you are looking for comfort, protection, and quality for everyday use or long-distance training, they are an excellent choice. They are ideal for those who want to run or walk without thinking about their feet!! Also, they seemed much better in quality compared to the previous model, which would tear easily on top! Time will tell about this!

  • I bought them a year and something ago and so far I've run about 120 km. For walking, they're amazing, you don't even feel like you're wearing shoes. If you have knee or back issues, you'll be saved. However, for running, especially on asphalt, I notice that after the first 2 km the sole hardens and starts to tire you out. As athletic shoes, the fit is perfect, at least for me, and they're durable even off road, but they're really for walking, not for running, so they're expensive. My next pair will probably be Saucony.

  • The shoe is very pleasant and soft but it has a very narrow fit and you definitely need half to one size bigger than what you usually wear, and don't be afraid because the upper part is like an elastic sock and it hugs the foot quite well.

  • I liked them so much that I got them in 3 colors. They helped me a lot so that my feet don't hurt when walking. I have a problem with arthritis and these turned out to be the best choice. The truth is you get what you pay for and these turned out to be very good. I also have them in red and green. Especially the black ones, I wear almost every day and they have more than paid off. Months now and nothing has happened to them
