2.0 out of 5 stars. what a let downVerified Buyer Reviewed by tomh from Illinois on Sunday, March 26, 2017I've been using the gel nimbus series for years, because of the reliable fit and performance. Maybe my latest pair were irregulars, but there is WAY more room inside my 10.5s than I've ever had. With the foot sliding around so much, my feet are covered in blisters. somebody dropped the ball. and I''ve got a 1/2 marathon to run soon.

4.0 out of 5 stars. Good, so far ...Verified Buyer Reviewed by Erik the Spaz from MT on Saturday, March 18, 2017Although they are not as lavishly cushioned as my all-time-favorite Gel Nimbus 10's, they have felt lively and energetically responsive in my first few runs. I'm training for a multi-sport race in Bend (OR), so I have upped my miles in them, after the ability to skate- and alpine-ski has 'gone downhill' this season, with all the warm weather.

5.0 out of 5 stars. SuperbVerified Buyer Reviewed by Average Joe from Pennsylvania on Sunday, March 5, 2017I'm not a runner or a hiker, just your average Joe. I'm retired, however my dogs require lots of walking. The ASICS GEL-Nimbus 18 succeeded my prior ASICS GEL-2000. They are remarkably light and comfortable. Since I'm not able to rate them with six stars, I'll have to settle for the highest rating available, Five.

4.0 out of 5 stars. Gel-NimbusVerified Buyer Reviewed by Beth from Missouri on Monday, February 20, 2017I love this shoe and have ordered many through the years. This one runs very small. I returned it for a half size up and it is barely long enough.
