Robbe is a liar and says the midsole foam is different from last year's Nimbus, which is not true (though it is a firmer density). Both the Asics Gel-Nimbus 25 and 26 use FlyteFoam Blast+ Eco.

Think it’s time you guys go to a 4 color scale rather than 3 (red, yellow, green, and…aqua?). Almost everything gets a green, and inquiring minds want to know if something is a go or a super-go. As always, great review!

I bought the gel nimbus 25 for my wife in September to run the Detroit Freepress international half marathon and she loves it

Perfect shoe for walking, airport flying and all day stand up at Disney World!!. Feels like a fine comfortable lofa!!

The Gel-Nimbus 25 is my high cushioning shoes of the year but it was indeed really hard to pickup the pace with them. Unfortunately they were made for slow motion running only ! Glad to know that Gel-Nimbus 26 will be a bit less slow.

Always enjoy watching u guys
Thanks from Germany

Very cool Onitsuka Tiger t-shirt. And very sly wearing it while reviewing new ASICS shoes

[muscfiorentina]

I want that tiger shirt that Thomas is wearing

[Kaisersozze]

Asics needs more lower drop shoes. 8mm for a slow run shoe is too much for me as it keeps pushing me forward making me want to go faster then recovery speed. 8mm for the Superblast makes more sense. Until that's changed the New Balance More will be my go to for recovery speeds.

Between the novablast 4 and nimbus 26, which wld be a better choice for daily trainers? I’m also considering the nb 1080v13

[MrFrescocotone]

Exceptionally good show that can be used by amateurs as well as very fast runners

[NVYMUSICx]

I just got these after 2 pairs of nike and they are such a breath of fresh air.

[Mais-io]

Hi, will this shoe hold up for 260lbs runner? Concerned about the stack collapsing over time

[jfree]

I'm looking to replace my running shoes, which are the Brooks ghost max, how did these compare? Are they softer, are they better, are they worse?

[Lee-mxli]

Great job on video.. hope its a better increase, because Nimbus 25 was PERFECT!!!!

Please give review of Asics GT 2000 12

[stingforever]

I've bought 4 pairs of gel nimbus 26. They all break at the mash on top of the fingers in a months time. Too expensive but comfy as hell.

[ulipeterson]

Well, there is actually a Ziruss model from Asics.

[gonzaloespinoza]

So witch shoes is better for recovery runs novablast 4 or nimbus 26

[teomslaer]

Where’s that Onitsuka Tiger shirt from, we all need it
