Customer Reviews ASICS Gel-Cumulus® 11

These are very good running shoes. The online description is accurate and the free delivery helps make the price a good value.

I've been through a lot of different shoes in my running career, but oddly enough I've never owned a pair of Asics. I'm a pretty heavy runner, 6 ft, 200 lbs, and I've been with Brooks for the past 5 years. Brooks just weren't cutting it anymore so I began the quest for a new shoe. Given my weight, my preference for a wider toe box, and that I am a heel striker, I'm looking for a neutral-ish, cushioned shoe. I opted for the Cumulus 11 based upon reviews and comparisons of the same platform on different shoes weighed against my experience with other brands. 3 weeks and 100 miles later, I'm loving the shoe. There was no 'break in' period and the shoe feels just as good on day 21 as it did on day 1. I am an Asics fan from here on out. Kudos to the whole Zappos purchasing experience as well!

These shoes were great! Perfect and true to size! My husband usually wears Asics so these weren't a surprise! The delivery was quick! We're at an APO address and I figured a week or two, but I say less than 7 days! We love Zappos and will continue to order from them again!

This is a great shoe. I bought it in extra wide, and I liked it so much I bought two. My experience is if you find a good shoe, go ahead and get several pairs because you never know when they\'re going to be discontinued.

These Asics Gel-Cumulus 11 shoes are so comfortable, I feel like I\'m not wearing shoes at all. They have a good bounce, and I don\'t feel any of the gel packs under my feet, which is a good sign that the gel is spread evenly. I didn\'t have any trouble breaking them in whatsoever. My first run with them was 7 miles through the streets of Washington, DC. They ran over pavement, metal, dirt, grass, asphalt, wood, and cobblestone without problems.\r\n\r\nBy the second run, I felt they were fully broken in, and I ran 17 miles without any pains or sores from having new shoes. I threw the old ones out immediately. In fact, writing this review reminds me that I want to buy another pair of these, so I can alternate the wear on these, in case something happens to one pair during training.\r\n\r\nI have wide feet, so these shoes work perfect for me. My feet have plenty of room to expand once I get into double-digit runs. They breathe very easy and are able to whisk away water with ease. Also, they have yet to untie themselves while running, so the laces stay intact.\r\n\r\nEven for casual wear, they look stylish and comfortable, especially while wearing running socks. My feet feel a bit snug with regular cotton socks. And since people generally don\'t untie shoes when taking them off, these are easy to pop off the heel. No worries though--they don\'t feel like they\'re going to pop off while running, since they have a firm grip around your heel.\r\n\r\nI also wore them while taking a class in curling (similar to shuffle board on ice), and they kept my feet warm even when I was sliding around on ice for a couple hours!\r\n\r\nWhat else can I say? They are the perfect running shoes, and I plan on buying them over and over again until they are discontinued or until I can run no longer. \r\n\r\nI purchased them from Zappos.com\'s online store. I am training for a full marathon at the Las Vegas Marathon in December 2009.

As a gal with a wide foot and a high arch, I was so happy to find ASICS running shoes. Asics have it all for me - authentically wide footbed, superior support, and cloud-like cushioning (it’s the gel, you see). I’ve tried NB and Adidas and Asics are truly my shoe. I wear 8.5 WW in ladies’ street shoes and 84E in Asics men’s running.

These are great shoes. I got wides this time, which I normally don't get, but they fit really well. They keep my feet cool, too. It was a great value.

Received these shoes next day after ordering them, you must be kidding on that. Service is beyond great. These are now my favorite shoe. I had to go with 4E width and the fit is perfect with the heel area being just right. Very lightweight shoe, excellent breathable mesh construction. I went through 6 pairs of sneakers before I found these, the search is over at last.

These are a good value, but are lacking in arch support, also feel heavier than the more expensive Gel Nimbus. Very good cushioning and protection for aging knees and feet.
