Who It's Best For

The Nimbus 27 is a neutral daily trainer for runners and walkers seeking maximum cushioning for easy-paced miles and recovery runs.

If you prefer a soft underfoot feel, like me, you’ll likely find comfort in the Nimbus 27.”

Tried & True Shoe!

Angela H 1 week ago Verified Purchase

I have worn this shoe for many years and models. I have tried other brands out of curiosity and always come back to the Asics Gel Nimbus. I have run races in these shoes and due to wear and tear on my joints, wear them for work while on my feet most of the day in healthcare. They are so comfortable and support my feet, knees and legs. The Gel Nimbus 27 are Amazing in my book!
