ASICS GEL-Nimbus 9 Candy Floss

ASICS’ GEL-Nimbus 9 portfolio is getting stronger by the minute, with no shortage of exciting colourways in sight. After Brain Dead exploded onto the shelves with its vibrant versions, this “Candy Floss” iteration reveals ASICS is also ready to introduce some flare onto its general release roster. With Hysteric Glamour proving how much demand there is for a Y2K aesthetic, this GEL-Nimbus 9 is here flaunting similar energy.

Originally released in 2007, the Nimbus arrives with a heavy white mesh underlay that feeds into the silhouette’s DNA. Built for distance training, the pair is kitted out with an assortment of techy features that ensure you’ll remain comfortable throughout the day. Hot pink accents highlight the GEL technology that remains in the forefoot and heel, matching the motif above. Pink branding among the sidewall and tongue contrasts the silver synthetic panelling, which only draws a closer comparison to the GEL-Quantum Lylia collaboration. Keeping it in line with its 2000s running roots are the white laces, which in combination with its heavy mesh will have you reminiscing about the days of Nokia brick phones and Walkman CD players, even if you were too young to have used either of them.

This is sure to turn the heads of any techy runner fans out there, so if you’ve previously been rocking Nike’s Zoom Vomero 5 or adidas’ Supernova Cushion 7 then why not give this pair a try?
