Here you have the new Asics Gel Nimbus 20 Platinium!
The ASICS Gel NImbus 20 as you've never seen it before. That's what comes with being a limited edition of one of ASICS Running's most iconicRunning shoes. To celebrate, in style, the 20th anniversary of the best-selling model for neutral runners, and offering the best performance and long-distance performance, the Japanese brand has had the brilliant idea of putting on the shelves of specialized running stores a special edition, which responds to the full name of the ASICS Gel Nimbus 20 Platinum. Just look at the images, and you can see the attractive aesthetics that dresses the legendary Gel Nimbus in this latest update.
ASICS has already gone ahead to announce that this new happy birthday of the Gel Nimbus 20 is also accompanied by different shades, although it is also emphasized that only the ASICS Gel Nimbus 20 edition features exclusive details, such as the galvanized touches in the heel area; specially designed insole; its reflective side stripes; the galvanized clip; and even the flat white laces, which come personalized.
As you well know, to talk about the ASICS Gel Nimbus is to talk about a running shoe in capital letters. Although comparisons are odious, the designers and engineers of the ASICS laboratory in Kobe, who have brought so much joy to the Japanese brand, with respect to its predecessor, the ASICS Gel Nimbus 19, the technical improvements in the Gel Nimbus 20 are palpable.
In addition to being the lightest version of the entire prolific and successful Gel Nimbus family, the ASICS Gel Nimbus 20 has a design conceived to adapt to the foot of both the beginner runner and the more experienced runner. This is a direct consequence of its excellent cushioning capacity, which has led it to become one of the references of the top of the range models that you can find in the market. In fact, the latest interaction of the Gel Nimbus brings with it the most cutting-edge and latest-generation technologies from ASICS Running.
Thus, no one doubts that the key to success in the ASICS Gel Nimbus 20, and therefore in this limited Platinum edition, lies in the successful and efficient combination of the exclusive technologies, trademark of the house, FlyteFoam and Gel, which results in the ASICS Gel Nimbus 20 provides the neutral runner a superior cushioning capacity, while also offering a greater degree of lightness in each stride.
On the other hand, in the chapter of the novelties, and in addition to being about ten grams lighter than its previous version, the ASICS Gel Nimbus 20 incorporates significant changes in its upper, and introduces the Gradient Jacquard Mesh, which stands out for being made with 3D printing, and in a strategic way, while avoiding seams. The result is greater and better support throughout the foot strike cycle.
In addition, with this new technical mesh, the ASICS Gel Nimbus 20 also manages to add extra comfort, and even more so in the flexion area, a strategic point of the shoe, because it is the point that bears the greatest stress in each impact on the asphalt.
Of course, it should also be noted that all this also increases the breathability of the model and improves the fit.
And by the way, one last detail that you may not have noticed yet, if you have had the chance to see photos, or even have had them in hand, and that is that the ASICS Gel Nimbus 20 incorporates a star-shaped eyelet mesh with the idea of minimizing friction in the instep area.
As a quick summary, the ASICS Gel Nimbus 20 is aimed at runners of all levels, who enjoy the pleasure of running long distances, and moving at a rather medium to slow pace, above 4:30min/km. Oh, as for the cost of the ASICS Gel Nimbus 20 Platinum, it is around 200, at the starting price.
Oh, and you should know that our team of #RunTesters of the Runnea Team is already working on the review of the ASICS Gel Nimbus 20, and as in our particular idiosyncrasy is not to marry anyone. However, the objective data is not provided by David Cardenas, who in his formidable review of the ASICS Gel Nimbus 19 says things like this: "High performance, cushioning, stability and comfort for long, unhurried runs". And the ASICS Gel Nimbus 20 is on the same path, even bettering it, hard to believe #IMoveMe.
