After a month+ of use and after 150-200km of running, I can say the following:

At first, coming from a much harder shoe, I thought I was stepping on clouds. They were so soft and comfortable that I couldn't adjust my feet to change my stride and gait. It took me 7-10 days to get used to the deep and soft bounce back they have, and since then I've been flying.

Clearly the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn in my life. I tried the shoe to find the size and then ordered it online. So, while I wear a 43.5 in regular shoes, I got a size 45 in these because when you run, your foot needs space to spread out. It fits like a sock on the foot.

On the road and after a few hundred kilometers, besides the fact that the pains in the locks, joints, and muscles have disappeared, the feeling is "bring me kilometers to run and stairs to climb." It simply doesn't strain almost anything.

Is it slow? On the one hand, I don't care, and on the other hand, I care about going out to run every day without destroying my body. If I take an extra 30 seconds, the world is not lost.

After a month of daily use, as shown in the photos, some small nicks may have appeared on the foam, but it hasn't cracked. Somewhere it's normal with such a long distance. I don't know how long they will last.

I hope they will last me 1500-2000 kilometers that I run every year.

I have been using gel nimbus for years. From gel nimbus 21 and onwards, I have bought each pair at least twice. Imagine, from 22 onwards, I would buy them without trying them on, one pair every 6 months, size 46.5, and they were always perfect, even the gel nimbus 24 which were the best. The 25-26 have nothing to do with the comfort of the older ones, so for me, who uses them daily, they are not worth it for any reason

  Even today, the lightest, softest, best shoe that has ever been released. I would perhaps place it in the same category as the ultraboost 5X. Awaiting the nimbus 27 as the 26 was a disappointment as most of you know in the fabric area at the toes (multiple instances of puncturing).

  Very nice shoe and comfortable. However, Asics needs to find a solution so that it doesn't tear at the front after 6-8 months of daily use. It is not feasible to buy shoes every year for 120-150 euros.

  This review is about the colour: Orange

  From me, it's a no for running!
  Yes for standing, so-so for walking.

  Regarding running: Yes, it has an excellent sole, although I would say it's overly soft; I might have preferred it a bit firmer, but that's just personal taste. However, it provides excellent support and shock absorption. I just feel a bit sluggish even on easy pace days. OK, from that perspective, it definitely does its job.

  The huge problem is with the upper part for me, around the toes, which is truly the worst I've experienced in a running shoe. After 12-15 minutes of running, my 2nd and 3rd toes hurt because they hit the upper part, which is way too hard, with no elasticity at all. So, just 30 km later (total distance from various training sessions), I got 2 black marks on my toenails and quite a bit of pain.

  I barely managed to reach 100 km slowly, and I really can't stand them anymore. They just don't work for me personally, even though I really wanted to get them! I kept them for walking and standing, but they ended up being the cheapest €150!

  BTW, I didn't get a smaller size; I had 1 thumb's width of space in front of my big toe, normally.

  I love it, it's the best I've ever put on my feet. Whether you're standing in line somewhere or walking all day, you don't feel pressure on your foot and you feel support and comfort with the sole underneath.

  I have bought and worn the nimbus 20, 24, 25 & recently the 26!!! Nothing compares to the 25! Comfortable, relaxing, for running but also for everyday use which I do! I wear it to this day and it is in excellent condition! I am looking to find a 25 in any color but now only the 26 is available on the market..

  They didn't work for me while running, but I use them for walking. Of course, it's a very expensive shoe to just get for walking.

  I bought these shoes a month ago and I am not satisfied at all. I always wear this size, however, it hits me on the heel and the sole started to come off after 2 weeks of use. Also, they are very warm after a short period of use. I did not expect such mediocre work from Asics on such an expensive shoe.

  I won't say much. Simply the best shoe I have ever worn in my life.
  Just buy it and give it 1-2 weeks to mold the gel, initially you will feel some instability.

  This review is about the colour: Gray

  Very good shoe, soft (more than necessary, in my opinion it is not suitable for heavy bodies. It is better to go for stability). Very good quality construction.
  As for the size now... do not make the mistake of only looking at the number, the number can say whatever it wants....
  Buy shoes according to the cm of your foot... all brands now have it in their language.
  That's why it hurts your toe.... they are shoes with a large fit for comfort in running... do not be fooled by the fit... and it would be better to get a larger size... for example, I wear 48.5 - 32cm in Nike, 49.1/3 - 32cm in Adidas, and 50.5 - 32cm in ASICS. As you can see, the sizes are all over the place.... So, buy according to cm.

  This review is about the colour: Gray

  So, owner of the shoe here for 2 months. Daily use. Walk in them in the morning and take them off at night. In walking and proper sitting, it's incredible. It feels like you're not wearing shoes. It's unbelievable. The only thing that bothered me is while driving. After about 1 hour, my heel started to hurt. I clarify that it's only while driving. And in the end, okay, the shoe is not made for driving. Also, as an owner of GT 2000 9, I got a size bigger in NIMBUS. I got it for 140€ on BLACK FRIDAY from the original price of 205€. I never regretted it. We're talking about a great shoe!

  For everyday use, walking-orthostasis is one of the best shoes I have tried. And I have tried several. They don't have amazing energy return or bounce, but their step feels like a caress for the soles. The sole is soft without sinking in, and at the same time, it provides stability. For work with long periods of standing and walking, they are very good. They also don't hit the foot. They are comfortable and don't squeeze the foot, causing discomfort.

  Very lightweight shoe, comfortable, with excellent cushioning and rebound. I use it for running 5-10 km and I am completely satisfied. Because I am a fan of ASICS and have worn many models of theirs, I can say that this particular one is superior to the previous Nimbus models. Excellent choice!!! Asics, indeed...
  P.S.: Because I read various things in the reviews... A very good running shoe (like this one) does not necessarily work for long hours of standing... They are not made for that purpose... One thing is one thing, another thing is another...

  It is the second pair that I buy. I got it in fully black color to wear it with regular clothes and even with a suit. Due to a problem in my waist, I exclusively wear these shoes. I bought them after the recommendation of friends and after reading many reviews online. They make a huge difference in walking. I had to hang my Stan Smiths in the living room to see them. I have been wearing them (the first pair in blue) for about 2 months now. I don't know how long the foam sole's elasticity will last. Of course, alternating between the two pairs, I believe will help them last longer.

  The best thing I have ever worn. And I have worn many of similar value.
  I wear size 43 and I needed 43.5. Excellent construction quality. Very lightweight, comfortable.
  I use them for walking, I don't run so I don't have an opinion.
  From now on, only Asics, only gel nimbus 25

  I ended up with these because I wanted something good for running on my return from an ankle fracture. First time with the Nimbus, then. They really are the best I have worn for running. Lightweight, comfortable, very good support, with shock absorption. I use them for medium distances of 5-10km.
  It is unacceptable for a running shoe worth 200 euros to have the laces come undone so easily. They are useless. They only stay tied if you make a knot. Advice: throw them away and get another pair.

  This review is about the colour: Blue

  The shoes are excellent for easy runs, recovery runs, long runs, and I would borderline include tempo runs; they definitely aren't suitable for speed. On the positive side, I would highlight the cushioning; the feeling it gives you is extremely good, it's not too soft that your foot sinks in, which I loved. You also have enough space in the toes, it locks the heel well, and it doesn't hit the achilles. (This is based on my foot using the top hole for better heel lock; without it, I felt it was a bit loose at the heel). Personally, this is the first Asics I've bought, and I really, really like it. As for the comment that says the shoes are for overpronation, that's completely off; I attach the image from the official Asics site, and I can also confirm that I have a neutral gait, and it's excellent.
  Update: After 100 km, the shoe is in excellent condition, literally like new. There is a user in the comments who mentions that the sole caused a burn; during one of my runs, I also noticed a discomfort as if my foot was overheating; the problem was the sock, so try it with better socks that have good grip and don't slide when the foot lands on the ground.
  Update: After 200 km, the shoe continues to be in excellent condition. 80% of the kilometers have been on tartan and the rest on asphalt. I don't feel that they have lost their cushioning.
  Update: After 400 km, the shoe is in quite good condition. It has started to create a hard spot behind the big toe, which means it isn't as soft as it was, but it's not something prohibitive. The sole is literally intact; it doesn't slip at all and gives you the impression that it will last quite a while longer. Inside the shoe, there are no significant wear marks.

  This review is about a variation of the product

  Very good shoe as far as the midsole is concerned, but I have two specific issues with the uppersole on my feet. In both cases, the fit is strange in the sense that it is not stable on my feet no matter how tight I lace it sometimes. Specifically, my right foot goes more forward and backward. I also put the lace in the additional hole it has to keep my foot stable. It improved a little, but the same issue remains. The second and worst issue is that it hits my arch on the right heel to the point where it causes blisters and extreme pain. This is because they have placed the hard part at the back of the shoe very close to the arch, causing the foot to touch it even with the thick cushion it has. However, I do not have such an issue with my left foot.
  The third and least negative thing for me is that the grip of the sole on the road is not very good. It can also become a bit unstable sometimes, especially on those terrible roads where you have to do parkour from tile to tile. Otherwise, the shoe is very soft. Finally, the space for the toes in the front is very comfortable.

  4 stars because it was quite difficult to break in. It is tight around the ankle area. The reinforcement at the toe creates a hard boundary for the toes, resulting in some discomfort. Wear them for casual walks or at work, as long as you don't lift weights, etc. Otherwise, it is the fantastic model from Asics that we have known for years.

  Very good shoe, with tremendous shock absorption. It has a narrow fit, not too hard nor too soft, but the shoe is quite high and tends to push the ankle outwards and correct its position, so it is intended for athletes with overpronation. CAUTION!

  It was mainly purchased for posture and casual walks, maybe in the near future I will also check it for running when I start. The shoe is the most comfortable thing I have ever worn in my life. Beautiful design and coloring, it has a bit of a futuristic feel like Lime Zest. The only downside I can think of is that as a shoe, it is narrow on the sides, not front/back, maybe it will loosen up because I have only had it for one day, I wore it for an 8-hour shift at work. It's just that little annoyance you feel, I hope it gets fixed with use. That's all from me, I believe they are worth their money.

  Running, this is the use I make and exclusively wear athletic shoes. I have tried almost all brands in the last 10 years and especially their flagship models, I have never worn a more comfortable shoe, and by far.... Comfortable, soft, with proper stability, negative in terms of ventilation as after 7 kilometers the foot starts to heat up intensely, but with amazing shock absorption..... When I wore them, it felt like I had been wearing them for years, always ASICS Gel-Nimbus 25.
