ASICS Womens GEL-NIMBUS 12 - White/Pool/Lightning
Like the name suggests, the Nimbus 12 really is like running on clouds. The most cushioned shoe in the ASICS range for a neutral foot type, the 12th version of this shoe now features guidance line technology and offset lacing to make this the most comfortable version yet.
The GEL-NIMBUS 12 has masses of GEL cushioning built into the rear and forefoot areas and has all of the fit and feel of the Kayano has but with slightly less support around the heel for those who don’t need it.
Features include:
Guidance Line
Guidance Line places a visible groove in the mid and outsole that follows the foot's center of pressure from heel to toe. The result is a more adaptive running platform, creating a smoother transition from heel strike to toe-off with each stride. Automatic Guidance Line thus helps runners to maintain a natural, efficient gait, especially over long distances.
IGS Impact Guidance System
The ASICS IGS is a technical shoe design that allows the athlete's foot to perform in a more natural manner. ASICS high-tech IGS shoes are constructed in a way that enhances natural gait
Gel
The ASICS GEL system is based on a special kind of silicone that enables optimal shock absorption. Gel units are strategically placed in the midsole and designed to enable specific functions and positions.
X40 ComforDry Sockliner
Provides cushioning performance and anti-microbial properties for a cooler, drier, healthier environment
Solyte Midsole Material
A lighter weight midsole compound than ASICS' standard EVA and spEVA. Also features enhanced cushioning and durability
Assymetric Lacing System
A lacing system that follows the curve on top of the foot in a natural way, to ensure a perfect fit and less friction. Anatomically correct lacing environment reduces potential for irritation and provides improved cushioning and durability
Personal Heel Fit
A special foam heel construction that guarantees a perfect fit around the wearer's heel.
Biomorphic Fit
The Biomorphic technology is incorporated into the upper where the areas of highest deformation are found. This ensures a better fit, improved comfort, less risk of injury and enhanced performance. Stretch material strategically placed on the upper helps to reduce buckling and the potential for irritation.
Gender Specific Space Trusstic
An advanced system that creates a pocket between the Trusstic system and the midsole, allowing for greater midsole deformation and more efficient foot function. THhis midfoot stabiliser creates a pocket between the Trusstic System device and midsole, allowing for controlled midsole deformation and more efficient foot function.
Discrete Eyelet
Improves Upper Fit, while reduces possible irritation
