Customer reviews
Manufacturing defects or intentional design flawsI ve been running in Asics for 25 years and it pains me, literally, to give these shoes 2 stars, but here is my logic. I needed to replace my Nimbus 18 s, so I intentionally skipped the 19 s due to the negative reviews and went for the 20 s. In years past, I have been able to simply buy size 12 Nimbus and be done with it...yes, there were slight variations between the generations done, I imagine, in order to say it s a new and improved shoe , but none adversely affected my experience. From what I could tell, the 20 s were said to have corrected the cramped toe box issues described on the 19 s, but the 20 s I received did not fit properly. The left shoe tongue was too short compared to the right shoe, causing the shoe to pinch press on my ankle when flexing and the insole just never felt right there was an odd lump under the forefoot . My observations were confirmed when I went for a quick 3 mile run and, upon completion, my left foot and left hip were sore. I have returned them for a size 12.5 to see if that corrects the mismatch between the feet, and makes a difference in overall comfort. If not, Asics may have lost a very long-time customer. I ll post a review for the new shoes, once they arrive.
