Stand out from the crowd in the GEL-NIMBUS® LITE running shoe. This shoe offers a one-piece midsole that's made from a soft and lightweight foam for an excellent underfoot feel. Comfortable and stylish, this versatile shoe is for those who love our popular GEL-NIMBUS® 22 series, but want a softer and lighter offering. This shoe is lightweight and features excellent bounce-back properties. Our FLYTEFOAM® technology in the midsole works with the GEL® technology in the forefoot and rearfoot to soften your stride and improve your comfort. Nearly the entire upper of the GEL-NIMBUS® LITE shoe is formed with a recycled material, while the FLYTEFOAM® midsole technology incorporates Cellulose Nanofiber, which is a sustainable material that also increases the durability of the foam. The shoe's soft upper will help your feet to breathe and move naturally as you run, while added cushioning reduces the overall shock you experience in your step. A lightweight full-ground contact AHAR® outsole also promotes extra durability — prolonging the mileage you get out of your running shoes accordingly. Fusing advanced tech with a stylish design, the GEL-NIMBUS® LITE shoe works hard to improve your running experience.

Not great
Really uncomfortable shoes, would not reccomend. I am pretty disappointed. Not much ankle support at all. The bottom looks like it has thick cushion but it doesnt feel very cushioned.

ASICS gel nimbus lite
A very comfortable shoe with great cushioning for your feet- I work in a hospital and do 12 hour shifts so these shoes are perfect for me.

Worth it -
I run every day, and I have plantar fasciitis in my right heel. These are so nice and cushioned. The pain reduced a bit after switching to these. Also, my pinky toes tend to break out and cause a tear on the sides of all of my running shoes. This does not happen with the Gel-Nimbus series though.
