Description

The Asics Gel-Nimbus 28 is designed to offer a smooth and comfortable running experience. Although much has remained the same in the latest version of the shoe, there are some updates that aim to improve the overall ride and minimise the weight. The Gel-Kayano 32 continues the long, popular line of stability shoes with a few updates to improve the ride and the comfort. The most noticeable of those changes is the shift from a 10mm drop to an 8mm, adding a couple of millimetres to the forefoot cushioning. The aim here is to improve the smoothness of the transition and provide a more balanced ride. For links to both shoes, scroll down.
