I also tried both and kept the Novablast 3 TR and love it. The Nimbus is too much shoe on my feet, too bulky and soft, even for recovery runs.

IMO, at least with my weight of 72kg, the cushioning in the Novablast feels softer and bouncier than the Nimbus, which is incredible considering that the NB has 1 cm less foam and yet never bottoms out! Both will keep your knees healthy in long runs, but I don't see a point for buying a Nimbus frankly, at least if you are relatively lightweight... The NB3 has more than enough cushioning, a better ride, similar durability, a cheaper price, it's more breathable and it's far more versatile in terms of the paces you can go with it. I like the Nimbus: it's a good shoe, it's a better looking shoe, it has a better outsole too, but I really don't see the point in buying it unless you are a relatively heavy runner

@@RunTall Thanks again Tim! I’m new to running and I noticed that I show a healstrike pattern at low paces and almost a midfoot pattern when I start to run faster, I was wondering if Superblast or Novablast 3 would be a suitable option for me here, or shall I consider something else! Appreciate your answer, and thanks for your time!

N25 makes me go slower, which I have a hard time doing when going out on easy days. I do enjoy the ride and feedback with the NB3, but two great options nonetheless. I can see the overlap in use cases for some people, but happy to have them both in my rotation. Cheers!

@@victorbmadslund Nimbus for easy days & long runs. Novablast for tempo days & workouts (intervals, track work, etc). I occasionally will use the NB3’s for long runs bc they’re so lightweight it helps when my strides/legs get lazy.

I prefer the NB V2 over V3. V2 absorbs the shock better and has more bounce.

Was very hard at the beginning after launching the Nova Blast 3 at my size and in a color way I wanted. Hopefully, for the Nova Blast 4 , Asics will put more pairs for sale since day one ! About the Gel-Nimbus 25 , I have a left heel slipping problem with my Nimbus. Some socks with good grip can keep my heel in place but it is a problem that prevents me to get everything that these shoes can offer. The middlesole and the upper seems fine , no bending inward because I overpronate a bit. But I'm with you with the possibility to try an Asics at the 8.5 US size instead the size 9 US .

Interesting thoughts. I wish I'd gone 1/2 size up in the Novablast 3. I didn't notice it in the Novablast 2. The ride is nice but feels unstable for casual use. I've thought about the Nimbus after trying them on in the store. I liked the firmness over the More v4 and that "falling off the curb" rocker geometry.

Picked up the nimbus 25. It’s a great recovery day/easy day shoe for me. It’s like slipping your foot into a couch. But you’re right. The weight is noticeable. If I had the budget I would give the more V4 a try, just had to settle on the one recovery shoe at the moment.

Hey Jim. I'm sorry to hear that. Injuries so frustrating. My symptoms or pain was mainly around my ankle bone. The pain was severe. I'm still dealing with some of it today but not nearly as severe as it once was. Now it's more sore and tight at times. I didn't find anything that really seemed to help much. I tried to rest it as much as possible which has been difficult to do while trying to hang on to any measure of fitness. I'm sending you good vibes. I hope you get better soon.

Personally I'd go with the Asics Novablast 3 between these two. The Asics Gel Nimbus 25 is a little too squishy for me for that distance. My go to marathon shoe has been the Nike AlphaFly V1 and I'm really liking the adidas Adios Pro 3. Have a great day.
