ASICS Men's Gel-Cumulus 20 Running Shoes

Comment

My husband ended up getting 4 pairs of athletic shoes over Christmas this past year and comparing this shoe to the rest, he believes this shoe is best for walking but perhaps not running. He says that the other shoes (Nikes, Adidas) give more arch support and the cushion on the bottom of the shoe seem to be much more supportive than this shoe. This shoe is also a bit heavier than the others so he doesnt find himself reaching for these when going for a run. However, he loves that it is true to fit and loves the look of the shoe. He highly recommends for walking.

These shoes are significantly lighter in weight than the past 7+ generations of Gel Cumulus shoes - which leads me to believe that there is less Gel in them. The Gel that is usually visible on the front of the shoes in the ball of your foot area is gone. The "flylite" foam that they are now using may be the contributor to the lack of weight, but one thing I did like from these shoes were that they were sturdy, rigid, and had some good weight and gel to them...well see how they fair this year.

Asics line has really hit a dead end for me. Have been wearing their shoes for 40 years, but seems like they are making cheaper shoes at higher prices. The Cumulus 20 may be last pair I ever buy. PROS: hmmm.... not sure, maybe that they look good. CONS: Squeak badly with every step - even after months of around home wear and silicon spray seems to offer only a temporary solution, tight. uppers a bit low, uncomfortable if worn too long, durability questionable.

Wore these once so far for a 10K run. They are true to size and initially felt a little tight in the area just above the arch, on the inside of my foot. After wearing them briefly, this went away. I have no issue with these. They replaced my Cumulus 18s and I feel they are more comfortable than those. Very comfortable. If I had to do it over again, I would definitely buy these again.

Shoes are little heavy, but I needed more cushion, so I guess the trade off is worth it!!!
