Like Walking On A (Cumulus) Cloud

I am a long-time ASICS wearer, but I haven’t purchased the Cumulus model before. They are super comfortable and shock absorbent.

Asics Gel-cumulus 26 A Step Back

Everything about the 26 seems like an attempt to reduce cost at the runner's expense. Compared to the 25 there is less padding around the ankle and the tongue. No doubt lighter weight, but at the expense of degraded quality. Still functional, but disappointed.

Good Show At A Great Price!

I have owned a prior model of this shoe and use it mostly for walking on weekends, etc. It has good cushioning and is comfortable.

Very Comfortable.

I am an Asics guy for year. I shifted to these over the Kayano to help with plantar fasciitis. The shoes are a slight improvement for me. I just wish they (and most shoes) had a better insole for arch support.

Light And Comfortable

The color of these is a little flashy, but my son likes them. They are light and cushioned.

Gel Cumulus

Not as much cushion as the gel nimbus, but still comfortable.

Great Shoe

This shoe is a staple for my boyfriend. He’s bought this model multiple times and likely won’t ever switch away.

A Running Staple

I’ve worn gel cumulus for over 15 years. They consistently fit well. I can purchase them and go for a long run in them.

Solid Training Sneaker For Beginning Joggers And Runners

I've purchased Asics some the 1980's and the Gel Cumulus 23 model was extremely comfortable so when it came time to replace them, I purchased the Gel Cumulus 26. They are still a very comfortable running sneakers and even though I believe the 23 model was more cushioned, it still offers a comfortable ride. They have done some things to update the model like a lighter tongue and the foam for the sole has changed.

Great Shoes Except

I got these shoes to help with my 5k training efforts. They felt great on my feet when walking and even while running until about a mile or so. I could feel a hotspot forming the outer portion of my right foot and along my mid foot area of my left. The shoes gave my leg, knees and ankles great relief but brought pain to my feet. I would have tried a bigger size but they didn’t have any on line or at the location where I shop. So I returned them and bought a different brand. I would love to try again in a wide or larger size in the future.

Like Walking On Cloud

My first pair of Asics Gel-Cumulus and I am very impressed. These feel like you are walking on cloud. The cushion is very good. Though I am not a runner, I find these very useful for light jogging, on the treadmill or casual wear. They provide a good support and perfect even when I have them on for more than 12 hrs. Highly recommend.

Running On Clouds

Have only put a few miles on these but they were very comfortable miles. Replacing Nimbus 24s. The rear heel was not locked as good as I would like but I think I can fix that with some a change to the lacing routei g.

Comfortable And Quick

Came to this shoe after 500 miles on a pair of NB fresh foam x more V4, a heavier more cushioned shoe. After initial run, I found these to be comfortable, supportive and very light/fast. Now I’m thinking I should have bought 2 pairs. I do about 120 miles a month, so I’m curious to see how long they will last running asphalt hills.
