ASICS Gel-Cumulus 28 Trainers - Orange - UK 6.5

The Gel-Cumulus 28 is designed with a standard fit. While many find the cushioning accommodating, individuals with significantly wide feet might prefer to explore models specifically offered in wide-width options if available.

For optimal performance and injury prevention, it's generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300-500 miles (480-800 km), or when you notice significant wear on the outsole or a loss of cushioning.

While the cushioning is excellent for running, the Gel-Cumulus 28 is optimized for linear motion. For activities requiring lateral stability, such as cross-training or weightlifting, a dedicated gym shoe might be more appropriate.

GEL technology is primarily focused on shock absorption, located in the heel and forefoot to soften impact. FlyteFoam is the midsole material that provides lightweight cushioning and responsiveness throughout the shoe, contributing to energy return.

Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the midfoot should feel snug but not tight.

No, the ASICS Gel-Cumulus 28 trainers are not waterproof. They are designed with breathable mesh uppers for ventilation, which means they are not designed to keep water out.

This can sometimes occur due to moisture. Ensure shoes are dry. If persistent, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Clean the AHAR rubber outsole thoroughly with water and a brush to remove any embedded dirt or grit that could be hindering traction.

Check the lacing for even pressure. Ensure the correct size is being worn, as an improper fit is the most common cause of rubbing. Consider thicker or thinner socks based on your experience.
