Asics Gel Nimbus 9

GEL-Nimbus® 9, has the samee upper comfort but a redesigned platform and overall ride. With a Space TrussticTM unit that is more rigid than in past models, creating a much improved midfoot support and aiding the transition from foot-flat to propulsion. The changes to the upper are subtle with a slightly shortened collar length and a two layers of memory foam Personal Heel Fit® (PHF). In addition, a new one-piece tongue/vamp construction eliminates the need for excessive overlays at the bottom of the eye-stay. Working in concert with the Biomorphic Fit System, this new upper set-up ensures a roomy forefoot that nevertheless secures the foot comfortably on top of the midsole.

very light-weight. very ..breathable...I know they'll go the distance. Good support. but they feel heavier in the heel - maybe a little more rigid in the heel too - not sure what it is but something has changed. Having said that....I had a great run in them!

Fit like a glove. Weaknesses: Have laced these IX's to stop heel slip.
