Review #1
Disappointing
I've been running since 1980 and have always bought Asics shoes since 81. I have been using the GT models for a long time. But since visiting a sporting goods store, and was informed that the Nimbus VII would be a good shoe for my high arches. I bought them. They were great I ran in them for several months. All thought the winter of 2006. So when the version VIII's came out i went right down and bought them for $119.
I was disappointed. After just a few weeks of using them there seemed to be no cushioning left in them. The fit just wasn't the same.
Since then i have switched back to the GT's. Getting the GT2120's proved to be disappointing also. They seem very flat and no cushioning in the forefoot. Review #2
nimbus VIII
excellent running shoe. comfortable but supportive.
great shoe for every type of runner Review #3
Very nice
I bought this shoe to replace my Nimbus V and I'm very happy with it. It's lighter than the previous version but that also means it's thinner so it can be a cit cold for winter running but I just wear two pairs of socks and look forward to being cool in the summer.
