ASICS Men's Gel-Cumulus 20 Running Shoes

Comment

I bought these to replace my ASICS Gel-Cumulus 17 shoes. On paper they seemed to have the same features including the 10mm heal/Toe differential. But these shoes have a thicker and firmer heal than the "17"s. The "17"s have a very soft heal-to-toe roll when walking. These shoes have a hard heal impact on the outer edge by comparison. I need the soft roll of the "17"s to avoid aggravating neck issues on long hikes. The heal/toe differential is more like 13-14mm than the 10mm specified. The shoes fit the same as the "17"s but the cushioned performance is much different. My comparison was done with a second pair of "17"s bought on Amazon 28 months ago but not yet used.

Ive been buying the ASICS Cumulus shoe for years. They changed the sole for this model (20) and I found it to be much harder than previous versions. I went to a running store and got inserts to make them usable, but Im stuck for the time being with significant pain in the ball of my foot. Im very disappointed with this new shoe and will likely move to a different brand in the future.

Everything that related to delivery was excellent. The package, the delivery time and the service was excellent. The product itselfe is much less than i expected. I wear only asics and its about 10 years. All kind of models. Kayan was good and so on, the best was nimbus. For the first time i wanted to try culumbus. The size came fine, and very much liked the color and material, but the model structure is very tight for my foot. And i have pain in my sole and my back when i wear it. It was not happened in the other models. Very disappointed of this model. Sorry for bad review.

Ive been purchasing older versions of this model shoe for a few years now. The gel-cumulus 18 were the only running sneakers I trusted. I was hesitant to try the 20s but after receiving these sneakers and putting about 10 miles the first week Im amazed at how great of a job Asics did with this upgrade. The fit is great, and for anyone like me whos pinky always manages to poke a hole in sneakers this version seems to have some extra material from the toe cap that wraps over to the outside. Overall great pair of sneakers!

This is probably the most comfortable running shoe that Ive owned. Ive been wearing Asics for years now, and Saucony before that. This MX version of the Cumulus 20 is both lighter than the regular Cumulus, and has a better-fitting toebox and more padding around the heel. This keeps my heel from rubbing and keeps my feet from feeling weighed down. These shoes also look really good. I was hoping the mesh material wouldnt look like regular fabric, I wasnt sure from the pictures. But when I opened the box, I was very pleased with their appearance. They are great for running, but also understated so I can really wear them anywhere for anything that isnt super-formal. Ill keep buying these in the future!
