Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Gel-Cumulus 27 is a high-performance trainer designed for adult female runners seeking a balance of plush cushioning and structural support. The key benefit is the combination of PureGEL and FF BLAST PLUS foam, which provides exceptional shock absorption for long-distance comfort, though the specialized foam composition may feel too soft for runners who prefer a firm, high-ground-feel ride.

FAQs
Is the ASICS Gel-Cumulus 27 suitable for high arches?
Yes, the neutral design and generous cushioning are well-suited for runners with high arches who need impact protection.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While excellent for running, the high stack height provides less stability for heavy lateral movements like side-to-side training.
How often should I replace these shoes?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and body weight.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Gel-Cumulus 27 is designed with breathable mesh for ventilation and is not considered waterproof.
Can I put the insoles in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can distort the shape and density of the proprietary insoles.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on the top of the foot
Adjust the laces to a 'window lacing' or 'parallel' technique to reduce pressure points across the midfoot.
Outer sole wear occurring prematurely
Check your gait for signs of over-pronation or supination; consider checking your surface consistency.
Midsole foam feels damp after a run
Remove the insole and stuff the shoe with newspaper to absorb moisture, allowing it to dry slowly in an ventilated area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best results, ensure your size UK 4.5 fits with roughly a thumb's width of space at the front of the toe box to account for foot swelling during exercise. To maintain the integrity of the FF BLAST PLUS foam, store your trainers in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight when not in use. Clean the exterior with a soft cloth and mild soapy water, avoiding submersion or machine washing, which can compromise the adhesives and cushioning properties. Always allow shoes to air dry at room temperature; do not use a heat source such as a radiator.
