FAQs

The GEL technology is ASICS' proprietary cushioning system designed to absorb shock effectively during impact, reducing stress on your feet and joints.
Are these trainers suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the GEL-Cumulus 28 offers excellent cushioning and comfort, making them a suitable choice for marathon training and racing for runners who prioritize a softer feel.
How do I clean my ASICS Gel-Cumulus 28 Trainers?
Gently brush off loose dirt. Use a damp cloth with mild soap and cool water for stains. Avoid machine washing and ensure they air dry naturally.

Troubleshooting
Slightly tight fit on first wear
The engineered mesh upper is designed to stretch slightly and conform to your foot over the first few wears. Consider wearing them for short periods initially.
Reduced cushioning over time
The GEL technology is designed for longevity, but its effectiveness can diminish with very high mileage or improper care. Ensure you are following the care instructions and consider replacement after 300-500 miles of running.
Traction feels slippery on wet surfaces
While the rubber outsole provides good traction, performance on extremely wet or slick surfaces may be reduced. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These trainers are primarily designed for road running and general fitness. They are compatible with various athletic socks and can be used on treadmills, pavements, and light, well-maintained trails.
Care:
- Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cool water with a damp cloth or sponge. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
