Fit and Size

Pros:

  • "These shoes are comfortable right away. They don’t rub anywhere and have good cushion and support."
  • "I got a 1/2 size larger than normal and the Wide fit."
  • "Make sure you go up a half size for the toe box. Very happy."
  • "I did go 1/2 size larger than what I wear in dress shoes, like I always do for this style shoe, and it's a great fit."
  • "I have a very high arch and wide feet so ordered a wide and they did not disappoint."
  • "I’m an 8.5 wide and these are true to size."
  • "They fit true to size."

Cons:

  • "I wish asics made a few more shoes in size 13."
  • "The fabric separates and developes a hole right where my left big toe rests."
  • "They are wider than usual so my foot doesn’t fit as well, it’s looser."
  • "The 25 seems wider all the way thru and way too much space in the front end of the shoe making my foot slip and slide around."
  • "When I received them they were like wearing a whole size smaller."
  • "Unfortunately these are just slightly too small for my feet."
  • "Though if you wear thicker socks you may want to go up a half size."

Comfort and Cushioning

Pros:

  • "I’ve had Asics in the past, but the Gel Nimbus 25 are AMAZING!"
  • "Love how lightweight they are!"
  • "These are by far the most cushioned pair yet! I’m a plus size person and these are like walking on clouds."
  • "Like walking on a literal cloud."
  • "These really do feel like you are walking on a cloud."
  • "The sole provides so much support and cushion and the shoe material is forgiving and flexible."
  • "They are so springy and comfortable. I have issues with my legs and feet swelling but less so after wearing these."

Cons:

  • "I had foot cramps half way through my day, and then again that night."
  • "I like that it was very cushiony but the left shoe rubbed on my ankle bone so much that I developed bruising and pain."
  • "They look like they should be super comfortable but they’re kind of meh."
  • "I’ve only worn these a handful of times because they are so clunky and uncomfortable."
  • "It hurts the nails every time even the wide size."
  • "All I could feel was the hard floor with a hard rim somewhere in footbed of the heels."
  • "These shoes are very comfortable. I walk 5 miles in them without any pain. The only problem I have with them is after owning them for a few months a hole formed on the top."

Durability and Maintenance

Pros:

  • "I tossed them in the washer and they came out looking like new."
  • "I’ve been wearing these for 4- 12 hr shifts each week for the last 2 months and they have held up really well."
  • "You can tell it's a good quality shoe."

Cons:

  • "The white is very hard to keep clean—it’s almost like it stains just by existing."
  • "At $160.00, they should have lasted longer."
  • "After only four months wearing multiple sneakers, not just these souls the souls are torn up!"
  • "Even small stones or the road makes holes in the sole."
  • "My daughter owns several white shoes, some in this texture, and she states these are the most difficult to keep clean and actually remove dirt with spot treatment."
  • "Guessing these won’t hold up any longer than 3 months. VERY disappointed in these."
  • "While I liked my hokas, they ripped in less than 6 months."
