## Overview

The ASICS Men's Gel-Nimbus Lite Running Shoes combine advanced adaptive Gel cushioning with a breathable gradient mesh upper and a lightweight FluidRide midsole. Designed for professional runners and active millennials, these shoes offer a responsive, supportive fit with enhanced toe-box room and dynamic lockdown, making them ideal for long-distance runs and daily training while preventing fatigue and injury.

## Description

The Gel-Nimbus 22 delivers the best ride yet with the introduction of adaptive gel, which offers more cushioning as you fatigue. Updated fluid ride creates a more responsive ride in a lighter weight packaging and a 360 fluid skin upper adapts to your foot while strategic overlays seamlessly wrap and support your feet throughout the run. Improved upper fit. Gradient mesh in combination with 3D print will provide an excellent fit combining the right amount of flex and support. A different lasting method will provide more room in the toe-area. Improve fit with new eye-stay design. The star-shaped makes the eye-stay more deformable, which improves static and dynamic fit.

Review: My current favorite walking/running shoe. - Why do I like this shoe so much? This shoe has enabled me to walk further and at a faster pace without getting sore feet as had happened with a couple of other major brands. I have some hilly sidewalks in my neighborhood and I usually walk fast, about 3 miles a day. The padding is thick enough to adequately cushion while not so thick that it interferes with feeling enough of the surface you are walking on. I credit the Nimbus with helping me stick to a 3 year regimen because my feet don't hurt anymore when I exercise. I wear a 9 1/2W dress shoe but need a size 10W in this shoe. Asics makes this shoe in an extra-wide (EEEE) in some styles, however the EE wide fits my wide forefoot and moderately high instep without being too wide on my more regular sized heel. My wife takes a 7 1/2N in other brands but needs an 8N in the Nimbus. We both started with the model 16 and own several of their other models through the 22. I preferred a thinner sole shoe when I was younger and thinner but these are more compatible with our 60's lifestyle now. My wife is thin and petite and I'm slightly overweight yet the Nimbus works great for both of us. These shoes aren't cheap but they last a long time and feel so good on my feet. I hope that they maintain high quality material standards and consistent sizing so that my wife and I can continue to enjoy them and have confidence in the Gel-Nimbus when it's time to replace. Asics, please don't mess with the toe-box. We both agree, the 16s and 22s were the best of the models we have owned. Just our personal opinion. Others were really good, but those were remarkable. Kudos! Continual process and product improvement enables loyal customers so please don't ever take the cheap route as some companies have. If you like Brooks or Solomon shoes but put on a few pounds, give your feet a break and try these out to get back in the game.
Review: Theses shoes are simply outstanding. Well done team ASICS! - I hate to be the guy that uses superlative language about shoes for Pete's sake, but MAN these shoes are comfy. Normally I only ever pay $65-ish for shoes. These were $150 (!) but the stellar reviews made me take the leap, and glad I did. I even bought a 2nd pair a week later because I love them so much. These are the shoes I always wanted but never knew I wanted them. I work in a hospital 12.5hr shifts, on feet 90% of the time, even do a little jogging, and these are unlike anything I've ever worn. Lightweight, super hugging, no slop, soft sole- like a memory foam bed for your feet. I normally wear 10.5 and these fit perfectly. Maybe it's just that these are perfectly designed for my feet and arch, but I can't imagine a more comfortable shoe and that's no lie. I hope your experience is the same.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How i know if my foot is wide ,x wide or xx wide?**
A: Asic has a few tools on their website to try to measure your feet at home, or you can go to a physical shoe store and have them use the tool. Measure both feet because they're not exactly the same size and there might be just enough difference for the larger foot to need the next size up if you're close to the size threshold.  Good luck, I have wide enough feet getting shoes is a pain but my feet love the doot bed of asic... I know this is a 2 year old question but the answer might help someone.

**Q: Is this made in USA?**
A: I'm not sure but probably not.  Most shoes are not made in the USA. Good luck finding shoes that are made here.

**Q: I have the nimbus 20 and had to buy half inch bigger.  Are these the same where I would have to go a half inch bigger in size?**
A: I have owned the 17 (best year), 10 D, Nimbus 19 in 10D....then came along model 20.  I had to go up a 1/2 size and not only did they shorten the shoe but made it tighter shoe box.  Luckily I have a narrow foot, mens C.  My question is the same, how does the 22 fit since consistency with ASIC left the building w/ Nimbus 19?  Comfort and cushion if you have had injuries can’t be beat w/ Numbus line if you can get right fit.  Tried 3 different 20’s and finally found one that would fit in the same size and width on box.  I hope they worked out consistency issues.  I need a new pair we will see.

**Q: what is the width of the shoe?**
A: I bought the regular width because my foot is “normal”.  They fit perfect. I don’t find them to be narrow or wide. I love them!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These shoes have a cult following for a reason!
*by B***N on August 4, 2020*

I've put a few hundred miles on these Nimbus 22's, and they're just as good if not better than the previous versions of the Nimbus that I've owned (last version was the 14). I read a LOT of reviews before buying this version, and honestly it seems like dedicated Nimbus runners are 50/50 split on this version of the shoe. Some people LOVE them because they're similar or better to past versions of the Nimbus, others swear that the Nimbus shoe has gone downhill since version 17/18. Personally I've owned 3 pairs of Nimbus since my first pair of 11's, and they've never failed me. ALWAYS worth the $150 spent, and I'm usually able to put a few thousand miles of road running on these before they need replacing. I compared side-by-side with the increasingly popular Adidas UltraBoosts and this shoe wins for true running hands-down. I even converted a friend from Ultraboosts to Nimbus after he tried mine on and ran a lap around the block. Ultraboosts are very comfortable and have a lot of "cushion" underfoot, but simply lack the support and structure that really makes the Nimbus shine as a running shoe. I've tried every Nike, Adidas, Brooks, Saucony, and Asics shoe over the last few decades and the Nimbus continues to rule them all. I'm now a part of the cult following! Keep in mind that since Asics is a true running shoe brand (and not a fashion brand) their shoes are created to custom-fit your foot based on your level of pronation. I attached the Asics chart to help illustrate which shoes are designed to fit each level of pronation. Have a look and take advantage of Amazon Free Returns to try a pair on!
