Great cushion for my flat feet!
Comfortable and flexible. Great for walking or a jog. Love these shoes!

Perfect for those with bad knees.
Great fit and arch support. Durable and high quality. Lightweight for running with solid traction. Supports my knees (and I've a bad pair of those). These are my go-to runners, though these were discontinued :(

Comfortable
Most comfortable shoes ever and great for walking long distances. Last about 6 months for a 6-9 miles a day walker.

Extremely Comfortable, Just Not the Lightest Running Shoe
The Gel-Nimbus 26 really shines when it comes to comfort and cushioning. Right out of the box, these feel plush and supportive, especially under the heel and midfoot. They’re great for longer runs, walking, or even standing for long periods. The cushioning does a good job absorbing impact, which makes them easy on the knees and joints. The upper is breathable and fits securely without feeling tight, and overall build quality feels solid and well made. These definitely feel like a premium, well-engineered running shoe. That said, they are not lightweight. If you’re used to faster, minimal shoes or prefer something snappy for speed work, these may feel a bit bulky. They’re more suited for comfort, recovery runs, and everyday mileage rather than racing or quick tempo runs. Another thing to note is that the price is on the higher side, so you’re paying for comfort and durability rather than versatility. Overall, if comfort is your top priority and you want a reliable shoe for long runs or daily wear, this is a great option. Just don’t expect a lightweight or fast feel. 4 stars.

Worth the price, perfect for long distance running, awesome shoes! Especially for the price!
Amazing shoes. Got them for an upcoming marathon and it's just awesome. Great cushion, not too soft/hard, just right. Keeps my legs and knees feel better after running long distance. It's built for warmer temperatures but it's still good even in during winter since our feet gets warm during runs. Really durable, especially the soles, but take note that these are pavement/road shoes so not that much traction for dirt/offroad, but it's still good regardless. Definitely worth it for the price, especially for the discounted price since the 27 is out. A bit longer, I got a 10.5 wide and the length feels like it was an 11. Support is good, which is rare for someone with high arch. Color is amazing, doesn't look too dirty when it's dirty. Buy this guys, or the 27s. I'm definitely buying the 27s as well. Asics is just awesome!

Best shoes I’ve ever owned.
Been using these as a pharmacy technician for two years now and have never had a better pair of shoes than this. I actually ended up buying a second identical pair when I retire the first pair because I love them so much.

Discontinued model
Very comfortable running shoes with a handy, wide loop on the back that is very helpful when putting them on. Unfortunately this model has been discontinued. As of November 2024, Asics has replaced this model with the Gel-Nimbus 27 and as of December 2025, Asics introduced the Gel-Nimbus 28. I expect both newer models to perform equally or better than this model.

ASICS men’s Nimbus 26 Running shoe
I am a long time fan of ASICS and have had numerous pairs over the years. The shoes are well cushioned and comfortable. Unfortunately they began to show wear and fray on the outside left and right pinky area in under a month. Tread on the bottom showed wear after a few weeks as well. Comfortable shoe but major fail on durability!

A qualidade do material ficou a desejar, pois com menos de 3 meses de uso apresentou furo no tecido. Como faço para acionar a garantia?

El paquete llega en buenas condiciones, tiempo y forma, la calidad de las zapatillas es muy buena, generalmente prefiero comprar por línea, es un poco difícil porque no ves el producto, sin embargo, siempre me hago la tarea de investigar el producto a comprar para validarlo, y hasta ahora no he tenido malas experiencias, tengo varios tenis que voy alternando, pero de esta marca es el primero, son muy suaves, cómodos, la talla viene tal cual. Soy complexión delgada y no siento que sean estorbosos, los ocupo para correr, trotar en pavimento, terrenos disparejos, subidas bajadas, tierra etc. tienen buen agarre, se sienten muy seguros. en lo personal estoy satisfecho con ellos

If you care about comfort while you walk or run then this is the best shoes. Lately I bout the Asics gel nimbus 27 and was a good improvement to the already great shoe.
