GEL-NIMBUS 28

That's great! My feet didn't like the Hoka Bondi 9 either, too mushy causing me to walk on the outside of my foot (supinate) more than I would with something firmer. I currently have two pairs of Asics Nimbus 28 and two pairs of Asics Superblast 2 and I love both! 👏

Hi all, I started running last November, and have run 30k so far. Currently, i have been running in my Skechers, which have served me well for all the walking and running but i know i need proper running shoes now. About me: Male, 74 kg, about 5’9”. I have recently had a gait analysis done and it said that my feets do not pronate or anything, and they are “normal” in that regards, i am a heel striker though and i could do with extra cushion for long term legs/knee health. That seems true to me as well because over the past few months, i have ran 5Ks in the new ASICS Gel Nimbus 28s and Salomon Aero Glide 4 GRVL during their launch runs with different run clubs. I personally really loved the Salomons with their cushion etc and the run felt super comfy and very much effortless! I didnt like the ASICS though, they felt a bit “off” for my feet, not sure why. Sooo… any suggestions for the shoes? I might run whatever half marathon i can this year, and will be running atleast a couple of marathons next year with some Ultra training down the distant future. Any advice is welcome!

For my first ever sub-4 hour marathon last month, I trained mostly in the ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 and race day I used the ASICS Novablast 5. I’ve now retired the ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 and I’ve done a few training runs in the ASICS Gel-Nimbus 28, so far so good!

I walk 15km a day including some running, and therefore go through a pair every few months. I juggle multiple pairs of Asics Gel Kayano 30 (don't like the 31 or 32). If you want insane cushion, go for Hoka Bondi 8 but you will compromise on stability. If you want cushion and stability, either go for Asics Gel Kayano 32 or Asics Gel Nimbus 28. I am not a big fan of Nike Vomero plus (which I also own) because the cushion has a steep fall from heel to toe, which I find uncomfortable. PS I bacially \*live\* in sneakers because I also wear them at work.

Nimbus worked much better for me than the dead feeling NB. Adidas always rub my pinky. Not sure if it helps but some input 😂 good luck for the decision!
