Full details

FAQs

What type of activities are these trainers best suited for?

The Asics Gel-Cumulus 16 trainers are ideal for casual wear, walking, and light jogging or workouts. They are not designed for high-impact sports or intense athletic training.

How does the GEL cushioning work?

The GEL technology is strategically placed in the midsole to absorb shock effectively upon impact, providing cushioning and reducing stress on your joints.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the trainers are made from textile and synthetic materials designed for breathability and are not waterproof. They are best protected from heavy rain.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is a combination of lightweight textile and synthetic materials, designed to offer both breathability and durability.

How should I clean my Gel-Cumulus 16 trainers?

Clean using a soft brush or dry cloth for loose dirt. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap and water. Always air dry naturally and avoid machine washing.

Can I use these for running marathons?

While they offer good cushioning for shorter distances, the Gel-Cumulus 16 is more suited for everyday wear and light exercise. For marathon running, a shoe specifically designed for long-distance endurance would be more appropriate.

What does the 'retro-runner' profile mean?

It refers to the design aesthetic which is inspired by classic running shoe styles from past decades, combined with modern technology and comfort features.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring not to overtighten. If the issue persists, consider wearing thinner socks or exploring options for a larger size if available.

Discomfort during walking

Ensure the laces are tied correctly for optimal support. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for shorter periods initially. Check for any debris inside the shoe.

Tread wear appears quickly

This may indicate heavy use or walking on abrasive surfaces. For light training and casual wear, the tread should last considerably longer. Consider rotating footwear if used for extensive daily walking.
