Y’all are the best 😂 love your videos!! I was always a nimbus guy, but took up the Novablast 3 this year and loved them so much I got a second pair for all my easy/recovery days as well as long runs, but the nimbus 25 might be on deck for my next max cushion shoe. I love how asics continues the spirit of the Nimbus as a highly cushioned neutral trainer, but modernizing it with latest tech in cushioning :)

Love this shoe; really love this shoe. So comfortable and supportive - like running in the clouds! One of the very best daily trainers in my current rotation.

Great video as always! Q for all three of you … Pick only one guys… this … Superblast … nova 3 … Glideride … you are marathon training

So glad the comparison of the Novavblast 3 was made - THANK YOU!

Asics off to a good 2023 already. They aren't wasting any time getting some bangers off

Good to see Thomas feeling better 💪

I’ve had 4 pairs of NB freshfoam more x v4 and all four pairs went back as they have a crease on the side of the toe box! So I’ve just the minute received the asics gel nimbus 25 and WOW! Perfect fit super ultra hyper hyper comfy WOW WOW WOW.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who felt the 24s bottom out. They felt like a flat tire after a while.

Shifted from Asics to Hoka for several years now and for max cush I liked the Nike Invinceable Run...but these Nimbus 25 are a huge hit and hands down my favorite max cushion shoe.

You guys are the best 😊

Wonder how this compares to my More V4 and Invincible 2s. I don't really need another max cushion shoe right now but I do want it. Especially liking the colourways.

Very interesting. I recall a some years ago when a couple of other shoe companies (Saucony and Brooks I believe) went to 8MM drops on some of their shoes and Hoka came on the scene, Asics doubled down on their commitment to high drop shoes. Well, here we are years later and what a change they've made now with a max cushioned shoes and and 8MM drop Nimbus. Makes sense though. In my current Sat morning run group (60+ runners), Brooks, Saucony and Hoka are the dominated shoes you'll find being worn. Asics has fallen behind, although I myself just bought a pair of Glideride 3s and love them so far. Interested to see what they''ll do with the Kayano next go round.

24's definitely bottomed out but with that being said I found I could do tempo work with ease as well as wear them as a gym shoe. I think the 25s are gonna be less versatile but have more comfort for long easy days or even wearing as a daily walking shoe.

“I did take it out for just a 5 mile run” meanwhile I’m puffed getting from my front door to the car….

Well, after being less-than-blown-way by the Invincible Run 3, I could not resist the Gel-Nimbus 25 and I'm very impressed. I may even like it more than the More v4. The plushness and comfort of the upper is something to truly behold. The step-in comfort is the best I've ever felt in a running shoe - no, make it ANY shoe. As for the ride, it's not soft and bouncy like the Invincible Run 2 or as smooth and rolling as More v4, but it's got its own thing that's very nice. It's a bit firmer but in a balanced way so that your feet and legs are protected from the impact. It feels and rides lighter than it looks or its weight. I don't like to go over 8 miles with the IR2, IR3, More v4, and SC Trainer due to their weight and this one weighs just about the same but feels lighter and more streamlined through the gait cycles. I've only done one 5-mile run on it so far but I think I can easily go on 10+ mile runs with this. For one, it's just so comfortable around your feet and the ride is uniquely pleasant. ASICS hit it out of the park with this one.

I loved the bouncy Nimbus 24 for my easy runs and was about to by another one since it wore out quicker than expected. Can’t wait to add the 25 to my rotation

me too i love the bouncy 24s, the 25s, are not bouncy, they feel very cloudy and soft, but not bouncy. i still love both shoes, but they are very different.

I loved the gel, and miss it on the front side, when i wear the 24s, i feel the bounce, which is now gone in the 25s, i still like the 25s a lot, but they are very different. im just glad i have both, which are soo different i enjoy them at different times

Yes to Nimbus 25! I am much more excited for Nimbus 25 than SuperBlast. This will now compete with New Balance FreshFoam More v4. This shoe makes much more sense in the lineup and the price level is much more reasonable. I would have preferred if they took out GEL completely, but I guess they have to put some token to keep branding.

I love asics I just got a new pair Nov 2022, Nimbus 24 ! Getting more miles! Let's go!!👋🏼🏃🏼‍♀

I got the same size as I’ve had with my Nimbus 24’s so I’d appreciate thoughts on how to stop my feet slipping in the shoes. Thanks.

How's the width of the shoe? Im looking to replace the more v3 that fits perfect for me in the regular width.

Shoes for running on asphalt, which have practically no sole. Most are foam with thin layers of rubber, like Kinsei. I wonder how long it will last?

Hey guys, thanks for the review. Question to Megan I guess: Nimbus 25 or Bondi 8? Or is it actually closer to Clifton?

Hello, I'm choosing new sneakers, I'd like them from asics (they fit my foot best of all the brands) and I don't know which model to get. I don't want any high-end model like meta speed, rather one that has good suspension for daily comfortable walking and doing all kinds of outdoor sports activities). As I looked, there are two models that would most suit what I want, and that is either Gel Nimbus 25 or Novablast 3. I don't know which one to choose. I heard that Nimbus 25 is better overall. My current sneakers are Novablast 1. The only thing that bothers me about them is that they don't seem that soft and sometimes quite unstable. That's why I thought I'd try the Nimbus model. Do you think it is a good choice? Thank you in advance for your reply.

Love this shoe

Any chance of an upcoming review on the release of the Nimbus 25 TR? Probably doesn’t need a separate review since it looks like just the outsole is different, but just thought I’d ask 😁

Used nimbus in the start of my running journey because I liked the wider fit and was solid, but became more narrow and weird. Switch over to Saucony (speed and Triumph). Have tried Novablast, but to me it suits more a heelstriker, which I’m not. I prefer speed 3. But I will try nimbus 25 because even when I like Triumph 20, it went from 8 to 10 mm and 8 is a sweetspot for me.

hmm...... Love the looks already BUT the question is: How this new Gel-Nimbus 25 compares to the Saucony Triumph 20?

Will be a Nimbus Lite 4 this year? I hope it looks like a Gel-Nimbus 24 that is lower stack, still ultra soft ,comfortable but more versatile and still very stable then this new era of super high cushioning shoes that seems as unstable as those super carbon plates shoes.

Would you recommend this or the Superblast? I have two pairs of the Nova 3's, and I love them, but I like being able to have a variety in my shoes. I've never tried the Nimbus line, but I'd love to hear someone's pick between the Nimbus and the Superblast

Superblast is more of a performance shoe, this is a soft cushy bouncy daily trainer. So, it depends on what you’re looking for.

Damn I actually liked the all white colorway haha I wish they actually have that in the final product

Is the all white pair also Gel-Nimbus 25?

How does this compare to the Saucony Shift 3? If I'm interpreting correctly, the FF Blast+ is probably more similar to Saucony's PWRRUN+ found in the Triumph. But stack height, aesthetic and rocker geometry here are similar to Shift (although Shift is considerably lighter, which make it my favorite recovery shoe)

@@chocolatechow7697 here are a couple of personal and subjective reasons why: • I found myself liking higher drop shoes. More v4 only has a 4mm drop. • I also have a wider midfoot and the fresh foam sidewalls gave me blisters. The tongue isn’t gusseted and finding a good lockdown was hard for me. The “N” logo is a harder plastic to provide structure, but it ended up hurting my foot when I tried tightening the laces for a better lockdown. • I know NB advertised this as the softest FF they’ve made, but it felt blocky to me and I think it’s because of the giant stack. I have the 1080v10’s and enjoyed the FF much more in that one. Those are just my opinions so take it or leave it! I ended up buying Novablast 3’s as a do-it-all shoe and I couldn’t be happier.

The Cumulus 24 felt great walking around in store but as soon as I started running it was bottoming out for me at the front even though I'm only 150lbs and so it's now collecting dust as it was too harsh on my legs. Sounds like the Nimbus 24 had the same issue, glad to hear that's no longer the case. It also looks a lot better which is always a plus. So this daily trainer now has more stack height then NBs max cushion More V4? I guess we know where shoes are going this year. Comparison between the Nimbus 25 and More V4 would be cool.

My hunches is Nimbus 25 will become the leisure wear of 2023, beating the likes of adidas ultraboost, as the winner of comfort sneaker of the year. There is a huge market for this segment, and not everyone is running but almost everyone is walking. FF Blast+ feels so good on foot, but the durability must be diligently addressed. I foresee the future iterations will be concentrated on aesthetic to fulfill the demand in the leisure wear market. It will be a good start for Asics with Nimbus 25 to capture the leisure wear market.

I’ve been wearing the ASICS Novablast SPS but the new bouncy foams squeak like hell on wet grass. They don’t like us wearing a golf shoe because it’s just the extra feet on the greens. Any suggestions in the new line , the sps was discontinued and after about 500 to 700 miles the. Shoes are completely shot.
