The Gel-Nimbus series is known for its maximum cushioning and comfort, generally offering a softer ride than models like the ASICS GT-2000 or Kayano, which focus more on stability.
Typically, running shoes like the Gel-Nimbus 26 last between 300 to 500 miles, depending on the runner's weight, gait, running surface, and how the shoes are cared for.

While ASICS does not specify compatibility with orthotics, many users find ample space for custom insoles, though it's best to try with the included insole first.
Care: To maintain the trainers:
