I love these shoes! Very comfortable and provide plenty of support. Colors are great and I've gotten several compliments on them. Can't say enough about zappos. My order was on my doorstep within 24 hours of ordering!

this is a very comfortable shoe. I had been buying Brooks but found that they didn't hold up too well. I'm a nurse and am on my feet all day. I need support and comfort. I wear a size 12W but found these sneakers to be a bit too short. I will return them for a size larger.

Great looking sneaker and super comfie too! Order 1/2 size up. I know it's hard to pick the ideal sneaker because there are so many choices but with asics you can't go wrong. Definitely recommend

I go through shoes like crazy to try to find the most comfortable fit, and I'm soooo happy to say, I have found the most comfortable shoe in the world. I have terrible leg/feet pain due to arthritic conditions and these shoes have been a lifesaver!! I can stand, walk and run in these for hours. I'm on my feet all day as a nurse and these have definitely saved me.

It is a great shoe for both style and comfort. The wide size didn't seem much wider than the normal width, so that was a bit of disappointment. It still fit securely and had adequate room in the toe box for larger feet and for runners. Most shoes now are becoming too narrow in the toe box , but these fit great. Definitely worth a try.

I previously have owned the Nimbus 17, and hoped for a similar fit with these: I wasnt disappointed, I feel like they are still similar in feel and lightness for my feet. I suffer from plantar fasciitis and work in healthcare, so I'm on my feet a good part of my day. Definitely helped to resolve the aching and wear and tear on my feet.

I've been a Gel Nimbus owner for several years and there is no other shoe that compares. This shoe provides some much stability and cushion as you run and or walk. Once you wear these shoes you will never buy another kind!

I have an average arch, size 12 narrow (skis for feet), am a neutral pronator, run 40-50 miles a week. These are my favorite shoes EVER. And that's saying a lot. I've tried and returned about 200 shoes (who knows) in the past year trying to find "the ones" since zero stores carry 12 2A. These are the ones. I LOVE that they come in 2A/narrow widths and they are so cushioned without feeling "mushy." I thought the gel would be too mushy but they are still responsive and don't feel heavy or like you're running with hooves. Perfect amount of support and cushion while feeling natural. No big "bump" on the arch or very prominent arch support which is perfect for my neutral/average arched foot. They seem like they will last a long time too. Very well made shoes. Never stop making these shoes Asics! I will run in these shoes for as long as they exist.

Best shoe ever for me. This is my 5th pair. I use them everyday sometimes all day. I have plantar fascia and my inserts fit great. They have been consistent in sizing. I wear an 8 medium and each pair has fit great. They are my go to for walks, work etc. The construction is good and they last a long time.

These are SO comfortable!! Great arch support, and ankle support as well. I have an injured ankle, and can really tell the difference when I wear these. MUCH more stability.

I have worn the Gel Nimbus for years and love them. These are no exception. Yes, the "cush" is a bit different in this model, not such an immediate pillowy feeling. But like another reviewer said, be patient, because the cushioning will just feel better and better the more you wear them. Excellent shoes, great for walking or running, short or long distances. They are always supremely comfortable from the moment you put them on.

I always wear Asics as my athletic shoes. The past few years I've noticed their sizing has become unpredictable; sometimes they run true to size, other times, a half size small. These are smaller. Wonderfully made, extremely comfortable. The picture didn't show that the pink is neon.

I have high arches and have worn Nike for years. Not anymore, these Asics are wonderful!! I truly feel as though the gel supports and reacts to movement. It's impressive and oh so comfortable!

Love the Asics brand, have worn them for years! By far the most comfortable shoe for my foot. Ordered this pair and had to send back they run a little short. Thankfully there was a bigger size in stock! Customer service very helpful! No issues at all!

I say it fits true to size, but I go up a size in my athletic shoes. These are great with plenty of cushion. I use them for boot camp and they are just what I need.

Love the colors and the fit is good. Definitely go 1/2 size up because the fit is snug at that size. Comfortable shoe and seems to have a lot of support.
