Our read

The Nimbus Mirai 2 positions itself as a plush, sustainability-focused daily cushioned trainer with an 8mm drop and soft knit upper. Its high stack and 263g weight point toward easy miles and long comfortable runs rather than speed, though independent ride and fit testing is not yet available for this generation.

Ride

FF BLAST MIRAI foam with an 8mm drop and high cushioning aims for cloud-like softness; firmness and responsiveness remain unverified by third-party testing.

Fit

A soft engineered knit upper is claimed to wrap the foot with added ventilation; independent fit and sizing feedback is not yet available.

Best for

Neutral runners wanting a soft, highly cushioned daily trainer for easy and long road runs with an eco-conscious build.

Avoid if

You want a lightweight, responsive shoe for racing or fast workouts, or you need stability features.
