I am a slight under pronator and need neutral cushioned shoes. ASICS nimbus was the only brand that would work for me (concluded that after trying brooks, mizuno, saucony and new balance). Since the cushioning and toe space is not that good in the previous 2 versions of nimbus , decided to try Hoka Bondi. So far it seems to work well for my feet. (Edited to add) anyone looking to convert from ASICS nimbus to Hoka , it will take some time to adjust but it is worth it in terms of drop. Heel to toe drop of nimbus is 13 mm which would force you to become a heel striker whereas Hoka has 4 mm drop which would result in less injury. This is the link that used to understand shoe drop and how to prevent injuries https://www.zappos.com/c/what-is-heel-to-toe-drop . I don’t know if I am a heel striker or 12 years of using ASICS Nimbus made me into one, I was having ankle injuries most of the time. |
