FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Gel-Cumulus 28 is a neutral shoe. If you have flat feet and require significant arch support, you may wish to use custom orthotic inserts.
Can I use these for trail running?
While they perform well on light, gravel paths, the outsole is optimized for road and pavement use and may not provide sufficient grip on technical, muddy trails.
How often should I replace these trainers?
It is generally recommended to replace running trainers every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and body weight.
Are they machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the materials and structural integrity of the shoe. Hand cleaning is recommended.
What is the primary difference in the Gel-Cumulus series?
The Gel-Cumulus line focuses on balanced cushioning for neutral runners, prioritizing comfort and impact protection for everyday training.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of heel slippage
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to better secure the heel collar around your ankle.
Cushioning feels stiff initially
The foam requires a brief break-in period of approximately 20-30 miles of walking or light jogging to reach optimal flexibility.
Accumulation of moisture inside
Remove the insole after your run and place the shoes in a dry environment to allow the interior materials to fully evaporate sweat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gel-Cumulus 28 trainers, start by properly adjusting the laces to secure the midfoot without restricting blood flow. These shoes are compatible with standard aftermarket orthotics if additional arch support is needed. For cleaning, remove loose dirt with a soft brush after your run. If they become heavily soiled, wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid soaking the shoes or using a washing machine, as high heat and heavy agitation can degrade the cushioning foam and adhesive bonding. Always allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight or heaters.
