ASICS have released some killer runners recently, the top three for me would be the Novablast 3, Glideride 3 and Nimbus 25. I think Glideride 3 is my number 1 pick as most cushioned daily trainer

@DaveTheRunner Жыл бұрын

The glide ride is even more cushioned ? That’s wild ! How do they hold up at a moderate pace ?

@erikvaage576 Жыл бұрын

Only have 21 miles in the Nimbus 25, so far, but I love them for easy/recovery runs! You said it well: super smooth and comfortable. I haven’t ran long in them yet, but am curious how they would feel for easy long runs. Any thoughts on what this shoe would pair well with?

@DaveTheRunner Жыл бұрын

Love it mate 👌🏼 It definitely still performs on the easy long runs! It’s still my shoe of choice for that

I walked into a sports shop to check out shoes for my daughter and I was drawn to these shoes. The white colour and the fact it said ASICS gel nimbus. Many years ago I used to buy ASICS gel nimbus as my staple shoe for running. I was soo shocked at how different they looked compared to back in the day. The owner of the shop mentioned the shift for thick soled runners. I’ve been running in a pair of nobull runners and haven’t bought new runners in awhile. I tried these on and I was sold on the comfort and the look of it. As someone who wants to get back into running these seem perfect.

im ttrying to deciede between the Nimbus 25 or the saucony endorphin pro 3 for a gym/daily running shoe. Have you ever compared the two? if so which do you prefer?

@DaveTheRunner Жыл бұрын

I haven’t worn the pro 3, but I can say the nimbus are super comfortable for day to day activities and gym 💪🏻 unless you’re doing squats ect where you’re better off wearing a flatter shoe

@snowwalker9999 10 ай бұрын

Pro 3 is a race shoe. It has a carbon plate shorter life. Why would you get them for gym and walking around? I’d get the Nimbus.

I'm waiting to see some more reviews on the Puma Magnify Nitro 2. Early reviews have been promising and it seems a little better for one-shoe rotation guys. The Cumulus 25 looks great but I wish Asics would put some better outsoles on their shoes. The outsole on the Kayano 30 looks decent.

I’m also intrigued by the Pumas! Let me know how they go if you end up copping 🫡

If you stand all day be nice to your feet. Yes Nimbus would be great for that. I too stand a lot at work. I wear Kane recovery shoes or my NB fresh foam. I’m thinking about getting a pair of Nimbus if they ever go on sale.

Here in Portugal they cost 200€. There are better less priced options out there! Got the invincible version 2 for 41,99€, before version 3 came out. Thats my verdict about the Nimbus 25. Even the superblast does a better job for easy paces. Got them 50% off!

@DaveTheRunner Жыл бұрын

You honestly can’t go wrong with that deal haha! I’m itching to get my hands on some superblast, do you love them?

@LuisRamos-qw1gj Жыл бұрын

@@DaveTheRunner For me the most important aspect, is that they provide superior protection for the legs. they work for me at different paces. In the begginning they feel stiff. After 50 kms or so they soften up without sinking too much on the foam and give a good amount of energy return. US Men 8,5 230 grams. They are very Breathable, good for summer and have a durable outsole. Very stable for a shoe with so much stack height. keep in mind that i only got them because i had a cupon with 50% off. I dont know if they are worth the 220€ retail price!
