ASICS GEL NIMBUS

The ASICS GEL-Nimbus is a go-to shoe for many distance runners. The high level of support and comfort that the Gel-Nimbus provides enhances the running experience for distance runners within a variety of styles, from the underpronator to the moderate overpronator.

When it comes to running shoes, the ASICS Nimbus model has been at the cutting edge of comfort and functionality for years. With more than a decade of development behind it, the GEL-Nimbus 14 comes packed with an arsenal of advanced features.

Reflective 3M Scotchlite material enhances visibility in poor light, making those late-night runs safer. An asymmetrical lacing design, discrete eyestay lacing, and a biomorphic upper provide increased fit and comfort. It's tight where it needs to be, without being irritating. For customization, the removable ComforDry sockliner provides additional cushioning and keeps the foot dry, while still allowing for the use of a medical orthotic.

ASICS High Abrasion Resistant Rubber, DuraSponge, and Solyte Midsole Material all add further comfort by providing cushioning in the critical areas as well as increased durability by covering areas of heavy contact with a wear-resistant rubber.

As the shoe's name implies, the ASICS GEL cushioning system reduces stress on the body with gel technology placed in high-impact areas for shock absorption. This silicone-based gel makes for a smoother ride by allowing the foot to move through multiple planes as you transition through your gait cycle. Adding to the efficiency of your gait is the Guidance Line, a visible groove that follows the natural curve of the foot from heel to toe. The Guidance Line allows for a cleaner transition from heel-strike to toe-off and enhances the natural efficiency of your gait.

The Impact Guidance System (I.G.S.), an ASICS design philosophy geared toward making shoe components work together effectively to allow your body to move naturally and efficiently through each stride, backs all of these technologies.

The ASICS GEL-Nimbus 14 is just the latest in a long line of running shoes designed with runners in mind. The special combination of features in the GEL-Nimbus were chosen particularly for distance runners, with an eye toward comfort, durability, and functionality. Whether you're a chronic marathoner, regular evening runner, or casual Sunday walker, the ASICS Nimbus line offers the best distance package for your fitness needs.
