Product Information

Full details

The ASICS GEL-CUMULUS 16 trainers, specifically the collaboration model with artist Griff, are designed for style-conscious individuals who value athletic heritage and comfort. These trainers combine ASICS' signature performance technology with a unique, ballet-inspired aesthetic that features a distinctive ribbon lacing system. While they offer excellent cushioning for daily wear, the intricate lacing design requires more attention during the initial fitting process compared to standard athletic shoes.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While built on an ASICS performance foundation, the Griff collaboration model is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer for daily use rather than high-mileage distance running.

How should I clean the leather parts?

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a slightly damp soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could strip the finish.

Can I replace the ribbon laces with standard laces?

Technically yes, but the ribbon laces are an integral part of the intended aesthetic and design language of this collaboration.

Do these shoes fit true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard ASICS sizing; however, the ribbon lacing allows for minor adjustments in tightness across the bridge of the foot.

What is the benefit of GEL technology?

GEL technology provides excellent shock absorption, reducing the impact on your joints and heel during walking and daily movement.

Troubleshooting

Ribbons slipping or coming untied

Ensure a double knot is tied at the desired tension and tuck any excess ribbon length inside the shoe or under the outer lace loops.

Creasing on the overlays

Use cedar shoe trees when not in use to help the leather overlays retain their shape and minimize natural folding patterns.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated design blending athletic performance with lifestyle fashion
  • Exceptional comfort provided by signature ASICS GEL cushioning
  • Lightweight midsole construction reduces foot fatigue
  • Unique visual aesthetic sets them apart from standard trainers

Cons

  • Ribbon lacing system requires more time to adjust than traditional laces
  • Not intended for high-intensity competitive athletic training
  • Materials require specific care to maintain the finish of the overlays

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, spend time adjusting the ribbon lacing system to match your foot shape; the ribbons offer a unique tension compared to standard laces. These trainers should be wiped down with a soft, damp cloth to keep the leather or faux leather overlays clean. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes, as this can degrade the specialized bonding of the overlays and the internal cushioning properties. Always air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the integrity of the materials.
