Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Nimbus® 24

Don't waste your money. I’ve walked 4-5 miles per day in these for less than 6 weeks and the tread is completely worn away.

Our family has been wearing the Asics Nimbus for many years and we’ve been very satisfied with this line of shoes (lightweight, comfortable, good support). The Nimbus 22 was our favorite 5/5 (well padded upper tongue had a strap to secure it in place by putting the laces through). The Nimbus 23 is also a very good shoe 4.8/5 (upper tongue thinner than the Nimbus 22, but without the securing strap) . But unfortunately, the Nimbus 24 we recently tried (color Black/Black) had a catastrophic material issue. In order to make the shoe lighter, Asics seems to have constructed the midsole foam using a lightweight material that easily shreds and tears. Attached are photos after its first and only day of use (approximately 2 hours). Did we by chance receive a bad manufacturing batch of defective shoes? Maybe. In addition, the upper tongue is even thinner than the previous two models (and without the securing strap). So unfortunately, we will need to try another model of shoe / or maybe brand. We’re hoping Asics fixes this problem in the next model (Nimbus 25?) The current Nimbus 24 is not recommended.

These shoes fit perfectly, very true to size. The coushioning is super, it’s like walking on a cloud. Great school absorbing soles. Worth it!!

Comfy shoes. Little warm working outside in them.

I have been wearing GEL-Nimbus since the 22. The 24 improves on the heel cup, which is firmer and the heel stays tightly planted. The thinner open weave tongue is comfortable, and does not have the 23's tendency to get pushed forward when putting the shoe on. The shoe box is slightly narrow. With thick socks, I can feel my toes being a bit cramped. The sole material is very soft, and it is easy to feel the grip on concrete. Unfortunately, this soft grippy feel comes at the expense of wear. The tread wears much more quickly than both the 22 and 23. The comfort of the shoe is fantastic, and I'm a big fan in spite of the few shortcomings. This is my second pair of 24s, so I can rotate them between workouts and perhaps extend the tread life a bit longer. A great shoe that I wear walking every day.

I originally bought my true size as the comments said they true to size. My previous Nimbuses ran small. I returned them for a half size larger, as at least for me, they still ran small for size. Like the color and the fit is great.

Very comfortable and responsive. The cushioning is great! My only hesitation or complaint is that the stretchy tongue tends to pull my socks down into the shoe, causing them to bunch up. To combat this, I’m tying them tighter than I normally would. I came from a pair of Brook’s Glycerin, and while these are comfortable, the fit is different. Still trying to get the lockdown right for all day comfort.

I have a pair of GT-1000 10 in the same size and they fit amazing. I thought these would be similar, but they are way too narrow and actually hurt my foot.

The fit and size were perfect. Unfortunately, the lining started wearing out in less than 3 months.

The sole on these shoes have no durability. I walk 10-13K steps per day, usually on pavement, and these have completely worn through in 6 weeks time.

These are amazing shoes. Its a shame they changed the Nimbus shoes after the 24 so much.

My husband has been wearing this almost daily. Super comfy and durable.

I like these shoes, colorful, comfortable, nice style. It’s like walking on air. Perfect size, and fit.
