Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping inside the shoe
Adjust the lacing tightness to secure the midfoot or use the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to lock in the heel.
Foam feeling compressed after a short period
Ensure you are rotating your shoes to allow the foam to decompress and air out for at least 24 hours between runs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS Gel-Cumulus 27 shoes last, it is essential to follow proper care protocols. These shoes are neutral trainers, so ensure they align with your gait requirements before heavy use.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt using a soft-bristled brush. Hand-wash using a mild detergent and lukewarm water.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as these can deform the foam and compromise the glue.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup within the materials.
- Rotation: If you run daily, consider rotating with a second pair to allow the foam compression to reset fully between sessions.
