    I've done 700km in the 25s, and you're absolutely correct. It's a no-frills comfortable daily trainer. It's not the most exciting, but it just gets the job done.

    Asics knows how to make a proper shoe. seriously, All of their shoes are the best. And I know how much you love the gel nimbus 25, Novablast 3, and Superblast, and even the metaspeed sky! Top notch brand👏👌👌👆👆

    I’ve got the superblast for long runs/marathon paced runs. Would you reccomend nimbus 25/novablast 4 or NB 1080v13 or even the ON Cloudsurfer as a daily trainer?

    For what it's worth I personally love this shoe. So comfortable, like wearing a sock with a thick sole on 😊

    Thx for the video Ben! Looking forward to cop either kayano 30 or nimbus 25-26. As a flat footer, I already ran in novablast 3 but I feel like I need different shoes for long run because after 13km I start feeling pain. Any recomendation?

      I rlly like the new balance 1080 v13, it’s SUPER soft and it’s not necessarily a bouncy ride but it does give some bounce back and its foam is plush and soft enough to mold to the flat arch of your foot and shouldn’t give any discomfort in the arch, but it’s a neutral shoe so it doesn’t offer the best support for over pronators and it’s also not the most stable; it’s definitely much more stable than the Nike invincible 3 and its stable enough but if you want something more stable and more comfortable for over pronation, check the ASICS gel Kayano 30, it’s gonna be slightly firmer than the gel nimbus 25-26 but it’s still very soft and comfortable and it’s basically the stability version/shoe for the gel nimbus, I think the medial side is slightly higher than the lateral side so it does help with over pronation

    Ben , do you noticed some difference in trems of the size between both shoes ? ...some people are saying the 26 is more lenghty than 25....saying for us to buy HALF SIZE DOWN than 25 ...what yo think about this ?

    Hello team thanks for the information on the asics gel nimbus 26 product. So my concern is I bought Nike shoe for 4k and after one year shoe cushion had gone and it is not giving any comfort now. So now I am planning to buy this asics gel nimbus 25 or 26 so can you tell me for how many years the cushion gel will be available in the shoe because as the cost of the product is very high so I am expecting the comfort and cushion and gel present in the product has to be sustained at least for 1835 working days. So can you provide an answer for my query by testing or by checking the same question to the company

  • @Potenti4lz

    26 feels firmer at the heel. I returned a K30 due to plantar fasciitis. Tried the 26 yesterday and it's not as soft as the 25.
    Also I feel ASICs get hot fast when you wear them. Haven't had much chance to compare other shoes apart from Decathlon ones which weren't as comfy.

  • @garthcox4
    @garthcox4 Před 7 měsíci

    I went for the novablast 4 instead as they are well cushioned and give more options. I find the nimbus are good for recovery runs but are slow for long runs as they have no responsiveness. I doubt I'll buy the nimbus again.

    To be honest I'm not a runner, but the 25s for walking and every day use they are extremely comfortable ! So if you want them for just comfort they do the job! But I know the shoes were made for running so you guys are the experts!

I'd have to come back to you after about another 3 months and give you a report to see if there gonna fall apart! But I think your good if your just using them for walking and every day use!
