I am using the Nimbus 25 for most of my daily miles and, as a lighter runner (~62kg), I don't find it overly soft. However, I may go back to the Novablast next time, which still has more than enough cushion for me and is a little more versatile. Overall, the FF Blast+ works really well for me. Great comparison. I've been wondering because these shoes are so similar. I wonder if the Kayano is not as good for midfoot to forefoot strikers though because of the 10mm drop and there is so much foam around the heel. Thanks.
Nice video as always. But it's the Gel-Nimbus 25 all day long. It's the better shoe. I also love this blue/orange colour scheme in this shoe. Looks so cool on your feet when wearing. I can highly recommend the Gel-Nimbus 25. Great cushioning and stability and I feel I can run quite fast in them to.
I always ran in the nimbus and had 0 issues, but after a small stint in PT for back pain related to a construction job, the PT told me I needed a stability shoe because my right knee collapsed inwards 🤷🏼♂️ I cheaped out on the Kayano and have been running in the gt 2000. Still no issues bio mechanically, no shin splints etc. but they are super stiff. Might give these new nimbus a try!
I’ve been rotating between both. I love the nimbus for long runs. I tend to lean towards the kayano when I’m nursing a little pain and need some support for my ankles or knees
I work mostly in standing position. After a long day at work my legs are really tired but I don’t want it to stop me from running. Between The Nimbus-25, NB SC trainer 1 & 2 which one would you recommend for the max soft cushy runs? Stability isn’t an issue for me.
To give a rough starting concept, I am a person with a damaged ankle which tends to roll excessively inward (opposite of ankle sprain direction). If I try to run in a shoe with a very soft and narrow sole, I tend to get easily injured due to excessive 'unstable' side to side wobble, which detracts from the main efficient forward propulsion desired. If you put me in something like the Kayano, with a very wide, relatively firmer platform (sole), this tends to help control my excessive, inward(side-to-side) wobble. Does anyone do better with such 'orthopedic' shoes? Yes, me for one. On top of that, I use hard 'orthopedic' insoles. But in recent years the trend is to believe that fewer people absolutely need this strong side-to-side 'stability' assistance, which I happen to require in order to avoid a quick crippling. Many people do just fine with less "stable" shoes (often labelled 'neutral' ).
It would make more sense to get a stability needs runner to review both shoes. You tube are full of reviews by neutral runners testing stability shoes.... doesn't make sense
Здравствуйте.Я не понимаю английский ,но комментарии идут с переводом на русский .Ответьте пожалуйста какую модель они объяснили наилучшим .Каяно 30,или Нимбус 25 ?
Hii, i can’t make decision between Nimbus 25 vs Kayano 30 I will used the shoes for walking arround 5 hours everyday, and i have flat foot Can you give me recommendation which one i must have to do that?
Dude... as a heavy runner, these new shoes are underwhelming. They bottom out and deform very fast, novablast did not last more than 6 months. I was very interested in these two but i think I'll have to buy the 29 before they stop producing them.
Curious to know more, I am buying the Kayano 29 for my bro who is approximately 200 pounds and he's not that keen to use them because they are kind of stiff, but I think its worth it if they last longer for him.

Used Nimbus for 6 months, and just got Kaynao, Nimbus is like a Cloud, K30 is like something more rigid.
What you suggest to use

Both are EXCELLENT options and should be at the top of any nonrunners OR runners list. ASICS is hitting it out of the park with these two.

Love the pro tip 🫡
If my Achilles tendon rly hurts when I run would kayano be better?
Asics Nimbus 25 vs Nimbus 25 TR 😁. Thanks for all the great reviews!

Vote Nimbus-25
the both are very good, but for me, I prefer gel kayano 30, for others who have normal feet gel nimbus 25 is good
Can anyone guide me which one is good for planter fasciitis?
Could you please next time explain what this stability exactly is for people who just started running? Does anyone even need such orthopedic shoes?
I would also love an episode that explained the differences/purposes between these shoes.
We'll look at getting an expert on and doing a video/podcast around stability shoes

hello. i have excessively flat feet hoping the make a 4E width.
Not enough forefoot stability for me in either, the foam is too soft. The gt2000 v12 however, perfection.
So basically it's like Diet Coke and Coke Zero.
I had to go up a size. My nor all.size was too snug
love kayanos

Get jordan 3 or jordan 4
Bro gel kayano is for flat 🦶 feigt not everyone one get comfort nimbus is very comfortable
