The GEL-NIMBUS 9 from ASICS was initially designed as a distance trainer for neutral and supinated runners. This shoe resurfaces with original materials and key accent details. Its industrial look from the Y2K era is also offset with bold contrast and color blocking. In this era of our performance footwear, they shifted towards a more segmented midsole design. With GEL technology inserts in the heel and forefoot, this tooling helped create better cushioning and a more stable step.
