The ASICS Gel-Cumulus 27 is engineered to be your reliable companion for daily runs, consistently delivering comfort and protection. The PureGEL Technology shines during longer runs or for runners seeking maximum joint protection, absorbing ground impact effectively with each stride. This translates to less fatigue and a smoother feel, allowing you to extend your mileage comfortably. For example, during a 10k run, the improved shock absorption helps maintain comfort from start to finish.
The FF Blast+ ECO cushioning provides a responsive yet soft underfoot experience. This means you get a gentle landing and a light feel, making transitions smooth without sacrificing the plushness needed for recovery runs or easy-paced efforts. Imagine a steady, comfortable pace on a city park path—the cushioning makes it feel effortless.
Breathability is key for performance, especially on warmer days. The improved engineered mesh and knitted tongue top work together to ensure constant airflow, preventing your feet from overheating and reducing the risk of discomfort or blisters. Even on a hot afternoon jog, your feet are more likely to stay cool and dry. The refined knitted heel pull tab and tongue design ensure the shoe hugs your foot comfortably, minimizing rubbing and irritation, which is particularly beneficial when logging higher mileage. This shoe truly excels as an 'everyday trainer,' delivering consistent comfort and support for a variety of running paces and distances on roads or paved surfaces.
Your ASICS Gel-Cumulus 27 running shoes require no complex setup. Simply unbox, loosen the laces, slide your foot in, and tie them securely for a snug but comfortable fit. Ensure your heel is seated correctly in the heel cup and there's a thumb's width space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Running Type: Ideal for neutral runners on roads, pavements, and track surfaces. Designed for everyday training, from short recovery jogs to longer distance runs.
Pronation: Best suited for neutral pronation, meaning your foot rolls inward minimally and efficiently.
Terrain: Primarily designed for hard, even surfaces like asphalt and concrete.
Proper care extends the life and performance of your running shoes:
Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush (e.g., old toothbrush). Hand wash using lukewarm water and a small amount of mild soap. Gently scrub the mesh and sole. Do not machine wash or use harsh detergents.
Drying: Air dry your shoes at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or using a dryer, as high heat can damage materials and adhesives.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct heat and sunlight. Allow them to air out between runs to prevent odor buildup.
Insoles: Remove insoles periodically to air them out and clean them separately if needed.
Rotation: If you run frequently, consider rotating between two pairs of shoes to allow each pair to fully decompress and dry, prolonging their lifespan.
