First time user of nimbus 26, preordered for launch date, paid full price a month before.

I thought wide will be good enough, but wide is like normal for other shoe brands like NB and nike zoomx invincible. If you need to compare they are not as cushiony on the heels but they are very breathable and comfy around the feet and toe area. After wearing it for 40 hours on a flight and walking around airports they didnt hurt my feet. I would expect more responsiveness from that large soul but they are bit stiff.

I am not a runner , just a user who wears shoe on most occasions to walk around malls , parks etc. So better watch reviews and compare it to other brands. Btw many people said nimber 25 is a good choice for the reduced price but at this price is a no brainer for any casual users

Thanks! I had been aiming to get the Nimbus but had been leaning towards the 25 used from Poshmark, but for this price I'm willing to jump ship for the 26. I've heard the Nimbus run narrow but I have pretty small feet. Unfortunately, by the time I saw this deal the size 9s in men were out. I wear 10.5's in Women's so I went for one of those. Hoping they work out!

Quote from GregryS :
What a rip off all these companies are using. Literally a woven heavy duty sock on top of injected foam. I've been running for a long time. They remember when the gel nimbus 13 cost this but was substantial and wasn't literally a sock glue to a wedge of foam a6 quality as well as all the other brands have really gone. Downhill tremendously is not about the weight. It's about the survivability of the shoe and these are just an absolute rip-off
I agree that most modem running shoes have become very thin in the upper sections (except for trail shoes), but I haven't personally found that these newer shoes wear out quicker. I used to have problems with the Nimbus 16-18 bursting holes in outside edges of the uppers where my pinkie toe would touch, and also sometimes on the tops where my big toe would run against the fabric. The sand thing with Brooks Glycerin 15. I haven't had issues with that much on other newer sneakers from Brooks or Asics.

One thing for sure is that I completely swore off running in anything from Nike back in the late 90s because they would just completely fall apart after 150 miles. That was a long time ago obviously but their lack of quality was blatant at the time.


I haven't had any issues at all with modern sneakers falling apart. My experience is that they are actually more durable as long as you aren't abusing them and use them as intended. I go through about 3 pairs of sneakers per year over the course of around 1300-1600 miles of split road/trail running. Been running since 1993... Competitively for the first 12 years of that.

Ugh, missed out on my size. These are my go to walking/running shoes. I overpronate on one foot and underpronate on the other so these are the most comfortable neutral shoe for me. Great price on something just released this year.

Men's side most sizes out for black/graphite. Not seeing waterscape or feather grey options. Slick deal though if you have your size

Anyone has tried the new nimbus line? It looks so different from the previous versions.
The $20 coupon works for the Nimbus 25 as well!

Haven't tried the new nimbus 26 yet. I swear up and down that the 25s are the most cushion for me and have recommended them to all my family and friends. This is definitely a no brainer if your size is available. This pair will be here on Tuesday, can't wait to try. I watch he's kicks on most comfortable/bouncy shoes. My top choices are nimbus 25, invincible run, and brooks glycerine 20. No runner here just use as walking shoes

This is a great price for this shoe being new this year. I had previously tried these at a running store before all the colors came out and it was awesome. Since I had to wait for more colors to come out-I opted to buy a pair of 25's in the meantime since they were cheaper than the 26's. I have been running in the 25's with no problem and prefer them to the Brooks Glycerin line.
The Glycerins have a way wider toe box to me and I felt like my feet were constantly shifting around in the front. The Nimbus line has a narrower toe box (not a huge amount smaller) and if I wear slightly thicker socks instead of those really thin ankle ones, it fits just fine and is secure.
At this price, I will have paid more for my 25's than 26's…but who knew 🤷🏻 ♀️.
