Asics Gel Nimbus 26 - The most COMFORTABLE daily trainer?
Переглядів 1,1 тис.День тому
The Asics Gel Nimbus 26 is a max cushion shoe made for easy and recovery runs. The 25 was a fan favorite and there were only a few changes to the 26 so watch to see how they stacked up! Disclosures: I paid for this shoe with my own money. No one, including Asics, gets to review this video beforehand and these thoughts are entirely my own. 00:00 Intro 00:46 Disclosures 01:12 Intended Use/Price 0...

    Your reviews are so damn solid. Great video. What distance would you take these shoes up to? Would you be comfortable up to e.g. 50 miles in these for a single effort? & w.r.t. the traction, did you manage to test the grip on any rocky terrain (dry conditions of course)?

    • @raddadbodtv
      @raddadbodtv 18 днів тому

      I appreciate that man! I didn’t get the shoe on any super technical terrain just some lighter trail but it’s definitely not prepped for the technical stuff. I feel like the shoe is a little too stiff for that and the higher drop would worry me there. I think I could take the shoe up to like a few hours max. I think up to like 90 min is great but after that I’d want something a little more comfy

      @N1kolajen 26 днів тому

      I own both. The 1080 V13 is very soft, cosy and comfortable. like a plush sofa. The Rebel V4 is more fresh, noticeable faster. the Rebel v4 is not as plush and cosy, the upper is much more bare bone. I feel they appeal to the same running style I feel. atm im using the V4 to my intervals and runs where it's okay to speed up. The 1080 V13 is used for long runs and slow runs. I love the 1080 V13... im no expert though :D
