Following colorful and extravagant reworks by Brain Dead and Florence Tétier, the ASICS GEL-Nimbus 9 now returns in its signature white mesh and “Pure Silver” makeup with the addition of bright pink “Candy Floss” accents.

Originally released in 2007 as a distance trainer, the GEL-Nimbus 9 has seen a modern revival with its original materials and key features intact. Building off the industrial Y2K look, the mid-2000s runners arrive with a more segmented midsole design with GEL™ technology inserts on the heel and forefoot for better cushioning. The hard-touch torsion arch below comes in coffee tones and additional details include grated bannners on the heel counter and mudguard.

The ASICS GEL-Nimbus 9 is now available on the ASICS website and select retailers for $165 USD.
