ASICS GEL-Cumulus 16 SSCB Trainers - Multicolor - Floral

While the GEL-Cumulus series originates from running shoes and features excellent cushioning, the SSCB collaboration focuses more on unique aesthetics and comfort for everyday wear. They are suitable for light activity and walking, but for serious or high-mileage running, a dedicated performance running shoe might be more appropriate.

GEL® Technology is ASICS' signature cushioning system, typically placed in the forefoot and rearfoot. It's designed to absorb shock during impact and toe-off, allowing for smoother movement and enhanced comfort throughout your stride.

To preserve the delicate floral print, avoid harsh scrubbing. Clean the area gently with a soft cloth dampened with water and a small amount of mild, non-abrasive soap. Allow the shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight.

Generally, ASICS shoes are considered true to size. However, fit can vary by individual foot shape. We recommend checking the ASICS size chart and considering any previous ASICS purchases when selecting your size. If you are between sizes, it's often advisable to try the next half-size up.

These sneakers are crafted primarily from high-quality synthetic materials, including a NEXKIN upper, transparent TPU overlays, and a durable rubber outsole. This combination ensures lightweight durability and a unique visual texture.

While the synthetic materials offer some resistance to moisture, these shoes are not fully waterproof. The transparent overlays and delicate details may not be ideal for heavy rain or extremely wet conditions, which could also affect their long-term appearance. It's best to avoid prolonged exposure to water.

Ensure you have the correct size; refer to ASICS' sizing guide. If new, allow for a brief break-in period, as synthetic materials may soften slightly with wear. Check your lacing technique to ensure even pressure.

Gently clean these areas with a soft, damp cloth and a very mild soap. Avoid scrubbing vigorously or using harsh chemicals, which can damage the delicate finishes. Allow to air dry completely.

This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components or between the outsole and certain floor types. Try adding a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole to reduce friction. If the squeak persists, inspect the outsole for any loose parts.

While GEL and FLUIDRIDE technologies are durable, prolonged heavy use can compress cushioning materials. Ensure the shoes are used for their intended purpose (casual wear, light activity). Regular cleaning and proper storage can help maintain material integrity, though all cushioning eventually degrades.
