The Asics Gel-Nimbus 27 is a max-cushioned running shoe designed to deliver comfort and protection as a priority, but I also found it to have more versatility than I expected. That’s largely down to the stiffer and smoother ride of the shoe compared to the last two models in the line, and it means the Gel-Nimbus 27 is a good daily training option.
It’s not as versatile as some of the best running shoes though, lacking speed because of the heavy design, and while I do prefer the Gel-Nimbus 27 to the 25 and 26, it’s pretty close and you might get better value by finding deals on the older shoes.
