A new chapter in the history of an iconic running shoe: the ASICS Gel Nimbus 26. Maintaining its essence as an everyday training shoe with a maximalist approach, the Nimbus 26 continues to set the benchmark for comfort and protection. But make no mistake, these aren't just any Nimbus.
The step from the ASICS Gel Nimbus 24 to the ASICS Gel Nimbus 25 was a true revolution, thanks to a number of relevant changes in both its design and the technological aspects. The height of its geometry was increased, the new PureGel system entered the heel in a more subtle way, while the platform of this model offered a fresher and more elegant style. In fact, all these innovations not only improved the running experience of the shoe, they helped to attract new followers to the Nimbus range.
However, the new ASICS Gel Nimbus 26 running shoes continues to be revamped, now featuring a lower profile, lighter weight and an even sleeker, slimmer design. We're talking about an evolution that maintains the core values of the Nimbus range, while adapting its aesthetics and performance to the demands of today's runners.
Get ready to discover the new ASICS Gel Nimbus 26. An icon that knows how to adapt to the times.
Following the line marked by the previous model of the ASICS Gel Nimbus 25, these ASICS Gel Nimbus 26 come loaded with technology and features.
In the midsole, the technological innovation continues to be the FlyteFoam BLAST PLUS ECO foam, which not only offers a lighter and softer cushioning, but also reduces environmental impact. These ASICS Gel Nimbus 26 also incorporate PureGEL technology, which ensures lightweight and soft cushioning on every landing, and the OrthoLite X sockliner, which improves comfort from the inside out.
The upper features a soft and stretchy knit upper. A material that wraps the foot comfortably, providing premium ventilation. The tongue and collar, also made of knit, add a soft and pleasant-to-the-touch support.
The outsole integrates the ASICS GRIP compound and AHAR PLUS rubber. Both provide exceptional traction, enhanced softness and advanced durability, making these shoes a reliable choice for any type of surface.
Highlighting the major new features of these Nimbus 26 compared to their previous edition, we have:

All these new features of the ASICS Running Nimbus 26 seek to embody this commitment to comfort and softness. But also with ecological responsibility, because they contain at least 75% recycled material in the upper. Also worth highlighting is the dyeing process in the manufacture of its insole, which manages to reduce water consumption by 33%, and carbon emissions by 45% compared to more traditional dyeing processes.
The improvements of these ASICS Gel Nimbus 26 not only make them exceptional for a variety of distances, but also extend their versatility in terms of running paces. These shoes are an outstanding option for running paces in the 4:40 min/km range, depending on the runner's weight.
For light to medium weight runners, the Gel Nimbus 26 shines, especially on long runs where the goal is to rack up miles without sacrificing comfort and responsiveness. They offer a perfect blend of cushioning and dynamism, ideal for long workouts where endurance is key.
On the other hand, for runners over 80 kilos, these shoes become a preferred option. In this case, Nimbus 26 excel in providing superior cushioning, protection and safety, suitable for all distances and especially more relaxed paces, above 30 min/km.
We can assure that the ASICS Gel Nimbus 26 suit a wide range of runners, offering an optimised running experience for both those seeking agility and those who prioritize comfort and protection over longer distances.
These ASICS Gel Nimbus 26 have a drop of 8mm, which ensures optimal shock absorption and great comfort. These Nimbus 26 have a weight of 304 grams in the men's version, while in women' s running shoes their weight is 262 grams, as indicated on the official ASICS website.
As ASICS has already shown us, these Nimbus 26 go further, since they are presented as a top of the range running shoe, standing out for a exceptionally smooth, agile and versatile experience. Whether for daily training, long runs or recovery, the Gel Nimbus 26 is designed to elevate your every stride in your progression as a runner.
