GEL-NIMBUS LITE 2
We Recommend
Designed For Underpronation Neutral

Underpronation
-
Foot Type
High arches -
Push Off
The pressure is on smaller toes on outside of foot. -
Considered Injuries
Plantar fasciitis, shin splints, ankle strain. -
How your foot contacts the ground
The outer side of the heel hits the ground at an increased angle with little or no normal pronation, causing a large transmission of shock through the lower leg.

Neutral
-
Foot Type
Normal size arches -
Push Off
There is even distribution from the front of the foot. -
Considered Injuries
Less likely due to effective shock absorption, but neutral runners are not immune to injury. -
How your foot contacts the ground
The foot lands on outside of the heel, then rolls inward (pronates) to absorb shock and support body weight.
The GEL-NIMBUS® LITE 2 running shoe continues to build on our GEL-NIMBUS® heritage by providing neutral runners with a lighter design and excellent cushioning. While the first iteration focused on combining a soft and lightweight design, this version builds on that same mindset but creates an even smoother cushioning experience. Part of our brand's sustainability initiative, this style also features a series of recycled materials while using fewer resources for a more eco-friendly design approach. Nearly the entire upper of the GEL-NIMBUS® LITE 2 is formed with recycled materials that help your feet breathe better throughout your run. Simultaneously, the FLYTEFOAM® midsole technology incorporates Cellulose Nanofiber, a sustainable material that increases the durability of the foam. Designed with an advanced software program that helps improve the shoe's cushioning properties, this model also references the design language of the GEL-NIMBUS® series while creating a lighter and softer running experience. Meanwhile, the GEL® technology cushioning in the forefoot and rearfoot improves comfort while increasing shock absorption. Fusing advanced tech with design nuances that halo our GEL-NIMBUS® series, the GEL-NIMBUS® LITE 2 running shoe is part of our mission to help create a more sustainable world while offering soft cushioning and lightweight comfort.

Good shor
Fits true to size but the arch is a little high for my feet that’s why I only gave it 4 stars

Very Uncomfortable / Should have returned them
I've purchased may shoes from Asics but these are the most uncomfortable shoes I have ever worn. They hut my feet, legs and all the way up my back. I would like to return them but I wore them for a couple of days thinking it was just me but it's the shoes.

Fantastic daily runner
Super light, great fit, crazy comfortable. Love these shoes. I have high arches and these provide just enough support without pushing into my arch. They fit as expected.

Nimbus Lite 2 Review
3rd pair I've purchased. They have the cushion and support I like. I run on streets and sidewalks. Just order a pair of Lite 3.

Never again…
Stopped wearing after three uses. Can’t return them so they sit in the box gathering dust. Waste of money!!!

Great support
I’m a heavy runner and this shoe gives me the support I need while still feeling like a much lighter shoe. Love it.

A good update
As an older runner, I’m more interested in cushion for my feet than a fast response. The Gel Nimbus Lite 2 delivers a soft ride in a shoe that doesn’t weigh a lot. I ran in the original Gel Nimbus Lite and it was a nice soft shoe, but I like the new model a bit better. Good colors, better fit. 4 stars instead of 5 because it can’t compare in cushion to my Nike ZoomX shoes, but I prefer the Nimbus Lite 2 for everyday runs.
