Asics Gel Nimbus 17 Review
Most Asics Gel Nimbus 17 users find the new update better than the Nimbus 16. The Gel Nimbus 17 is much lighter and has more cushioning.
The current Nimbus 17 has only a few colorways being offered. There is the Orange-Blue for the Men’s and Yellow-Pink for the Women’s. Runners love the striking bright colors.
Asics Nimbus 17 is ideal for runners with under- and normal- pronation.
