Like a number of Asics sneakers, the Gel-Nimbus 9 showcases an ever-in-demand mid-2000s aesthetic, largely due to the upper’s layered mesh and synthetic leather paneling. Initially designed as a distance trainer for neutral and supinated runners, the shoe is now a popular lifestyle option catering to daily use. Original materials and key details remain, as the Gel-Nimbus 9 is outfitted with the brand’s Gel technology inserts in the heel and forefoot for improved cushioning and stability. Another standout feature emerges by way of a more segmented midsole design, which draws immediate attention to the silhouette. asics – Gel-Nimbus 9 Frosted Almond/Black | Highsnobiety Shop
