The most popular running shoe, the GEL-Nimbus(r) 10 is ASICS top of the line cushioning shoe, featuring ...

The Gel Nimbus 10 is a great shoe, but don't buy it from Shoe Mall. I placed an order on 11/22 with a $20 Off + Free Shipping Coupon. The shoes were never shipped and finally canceled on 12/1 claiming they were out of stock and being discontinued. I contacted Shoe Mall Customer Service, questioning a) why their website still listed this product as "in stock," b) why they would be discontinued after only 6 months on the market, and c) why they are still prominently displayed on the Asics website. Shoe Mall just responded that there was nothing they could do and canceled the order. These shoes are STILL listed as "in stock" on 12/8, more than two weeks later! I suspect Shoe Mall did not want to honor the $20 Off + Free Shipping Coupon and canceling my order was their way out. BUYER BEWARE of Shoe Mall. I ended up ordering these from East Bay (which is where I got my Gel Nimbus 9's) without incident.

This was an upgrade from Nimbus 8. I am an under-pronator (supination) and need a cushioning shoe. I bought appropriate New Balance shoes, which created a lot of discomfort in my knees. I ate the cost and decided to buy Asics again, Nimbus 10. They are great! These shoes just keep getting better. I plan to stick with the Asics from now on.

I purchased these Asics about 2 weeks ago and they are great! I am currently deployed in Iraq and spend a ample amount of time working out. Ordinarry shoes were giving me shin splints almost always. Its only been two weeks but I can tell a huge Diffrence. These shoes fit right to the feet and are light weight. They even have all sorts of net type material for your feet to breathe. I would suggest these shoes to anyone. Well worth the money.

I had always hard feelings while jogging in my toes and knees. I was looking for a solution. Changing track and adding pads in shoes did not work. While searching for a solution I saw ASICS ad. I order the shoes to try if it works. To my surprise, I was running on the clouds. It worked and it worked very well. Just note while ordering online, check your size carefully as this shoe is physical depiction of the words in ads which mention about the size.

I've used the lower line Asics shoes (2120) I think is the model number. For the money, this shoe is a bit of a letdown. They are comfortable but they rub just a bit in the toe for me. I hope that they break in a bit better with more extended use. I run about 20 miles a week. I have noticed I don't have the same fatigue that I had in my joints from my last pair of shoes (2120's) but it might have been that my 2120's were worn completely out. I think a new pair of 2120's would have been just as good as this pair. All running shoes break down over time. Next time I'll stick with my 2120's and save a few dollars.
