    Is the 24 version much better than this 23 version? Or are they pretty much equally great? 🤗🤔 the 23 is more affordable than the 24, on amazon. Should i spend more money for the 24, or not really. ?

    Asics would sell more shoes over here (uk) if we got the full range. We didn’t get the Nimbus lite or kayano lite. The nimbus lite 2 is out in USA Asia. Cmon Asics we want them too!.

    I bought the Asics Nimbus 23 shoes for running and it has been a complete disappointment and an absolute nightmare. I had used the shoes for only about 250*kms of running appro, and already the shoes are tearing apart. I had spent a ridiculous amount on these shoes, expecting a good quality product from Asics. Unfortunately, the quality of shoes sold by Asics in India is very poor. What's worse is that the customer care team is unwilling to provide any support, leaving me stuck with a defective product. I urge everyone to be aware before making a purchase of Asics shoes. These shoes are a waste of your hard-earned money and will only lead to disappointment. If you're thinking of buying Asics shoes, think again! Save your money and invest in a better brand that values their customers and produces quality products. Asics Nimbus shoes are a complete waste of money and a disgrace to the sportswear industry.

    Hi Fordy. I wonder why asics gb are so crap? Takes them an age to get new models... no sign of Kayano Lite. Asics is huge in the UK, but they are super slack.

    I really like Asics Kayano shoes (stability version of this). I'm one of those "get out and run 5k" types and I think these are great for that. I love the gel cushion, the support they have, and I find them very durable. My wife's first running shoes were a pair of Nimbus 20 and she got 700 miles out of those.

      I bought my Gel Nimbus 20 when they came out and believe it or not I still use them every single day and they look almost brand new! In the meantime, during last year I was trying to find some other type of similar shoe and sadly none of all the high performance shoes had the fit and feel of nimbus 20. I'd probably go for 23-24 for my next shoe.

    Was at the Berlin Marathon expo a few years ago and had a look at the Asics stand. It seemed embarrassingly bad compared to what was on offer from the other upwardly mobile brands. Felt like entering a running shop from 30 years ago lol They have produced a few decent shoes recently but a £155 price point for those feels silly.

    Fordy, first of all really enjoy your videos!! I want to buy a shoe to train for my police physical test, 1,5 miles in 11 minutes, but if the shoes don't have a good shock absorbtion my knee hurts, the podiatrist suggested asics gel nimbus but I want a shoe to be able to complete the physical test successfully to be able to run with a bit of pace while keeping my knee pain free, would you recommend this particular shoe?

    After many reviews on YT, I did not expect much improvement from the Nimbus 23. But when I tried them the first time, I have been impressed. For me, this is a major step up in the Nimbus series. The fit is absolutely amazing, I did A/B testing with my Nimbus 22 and the difference is significant for my feet. Of course, that might be specific for my feet and others might not feel such a difference.
    Then on my first run, I have been impressed again. More cushioning without loosing control. For a midfoot runner like me this is a good step in the right direction. I don't care for the weight, as this is my normal for years.
    After watching many reviews on YT, I got the feeling that Asics was missing on innovation compared to what 'modern' brands offer. I thought, I needed to try out other brands. But then I decided not to spend my time into testing running shoes, but go training instead and just bought what I knew.
    Anyone who liked their Asics the last years: don't let you drive into Fomo from all the talk, that Asics is missing the boat. For me this is the best daily training shoe I have ever had.

    love the Novablast BUT heel / mid foot support is not working for me hope the second generation would fix this
    My ideal shoe would be the nimbus stability with novablast bounce and light weight
    nimbus lite 2 is coming apparently it's a lighter version - did you try the 1st generation?

      You can definitely feel a big difference. Also maybe because i wasnt using a proper running shoes. I was using a cross trainer shoes. So I came from a totally non supportive shoes. So it was really a big difference for me. Havent had the pain on my foot since i used it. It definitely helps with my underpronation issue. No more shin splints. If i can pinpoint one thing is that it's narrow on the toes. Im a true size 8. But it doesn't give me a lot of space around the toes so i wish i wouldve size up for more comfort. Still the most comfortable shoes ive ever used by far

    I'm a Nike fan but my father is a Asics fan he has Asics gt1000 but he wants a new Asics so we are confused between Asics novablast and nimbus 23 which is good

    • @Reggy9
      @Reggy9 3 года назад

      The Nimbus has way more stability than the Novablast. If your father runs a Gt1000 and you are between the Nimbus and/or the NB, I personally would pick the Nimbus 23 or the Nimbus Lite 2. If you want the flagship of stability shoes from Asics look for the Kayano.

    I have been waiting for this review since the video you did a few days ago with your dog. I am looking for a easy day pair and i was personally was going to buy these on release but held back due to price and wanting to hear a review or 2. By the sounds of it they have added a lot of support features, hence the added weight. I think I will wait and hold off until February when the 1080 v11 gets released. Also, have you seen the specs for the Glideride 2?
