Overall great running shoe. Only regret is not being able to get it in wide width. The upper part of the shoe across the top of the foot is very tight. It's very difficult for me to wear them for long periods of time.

Good shoe for a novice runner like myself who runs maybe 18 to 20 miles a week. Comfortable shoe with a good amount of cushion. The shoe looks good, as well.

The sneakers fit my daughter. She wore them for an afternoon and a short run. She said they fit well and were very comfortable. She thought they were true to size and width with great support I liked the style but she did not. Interestingly, though, after she put them on, she liked them much more. I loved the style (I am a 50 year old mom) - my daughter didn’t like the style so much.

Was not crazy about the color and pattern, However, felt really cushy, good arch support, but great walking shoe with all day comfort
I'd also recommend:

1. I wear a size 9 1/2 3E. In order to feel totally comfortable I must leave the laces loose to accommodate my wide foot! I've tried going to a size 10 but that gives me more length than I need! In all fairness most brands have similar fit problems!

Comfortable most ugly shoe (much worse than the dise view) with minimal lterl support but good price. Bought for the undersupination but shoe has lttle lateral supprt and the shoe upper seems to almost fall over with its elasticity which s comfortable but lacking any support even standing still. Good price but no selection for size 14/15 - i can always tell what 14/15 are because they are always the ugliest shoes on planet earth. If you are only running - these shoes are top notch (i know they are running shoes but i play pickleball in brooks running shoes just fine) for just going forward but even walking or turning the uppers almost seem to fall over. My feet arent fat and usually wear narrow if i can find them becuase large size feet usually mean that you are supposed to have wide feet for the masses.

These are not the regular Gel Cumulus. They are slip on and then lace up (if that makes sense). They are just as comfortable to run in as the regular Gel Cumulus, but my concern is that with always slipping my heal into the pocket, the back of the heal will become worn and wrinkled and may cause blisters. However, so far, so good. You cannot lock lace these, but they hold pretty tight to the foot. Gel Cumulus is still my favorite shoe since the 18 model. They have great control, durability, and cushion.

I gave these 3 stars for only one reason, the tongue. It's odd, that's all I can say. Other than that, these are VERY comfortable shoes. The soles are great.

I have been using Gel-Cumulus for 10+ years and this is my least favourite version; it's not a bad shoe, but it's not good enough to make me rush out and buy more, even if they're heavily discounted. What I like: * well constructed and lasted through many season * lots of colour options * can be used for many training types What I didn't like: * laces far too short for Asics recommended heel lock lacing * toe box is much tighter than previous versions * durability WAY down - I got c.200 miles vs. 275+ miles on my GC 21's and 22's

Hole developed on outside of shoe within 5 months of casual wear in clinic and hospital setting. These were worn 3-4 days/week in a hospital setting and occasionally for typical day-to-day activities, not even for running. Shoe size was measured and confirmed in a running store. They were incredibly comfortable until the upper wore out so quickly.

I like the shoes and have had multiple pairs. But the Nimbus has more vision for my heavy self and should be the only shoes I buy.

Didn't fit well. Seemed like a quality shoe but the heel rubbed and the tongue was very tight over the top of my feet. Had to return.

Nice shoe, fits well, and decent cusioning, but the upper is not substantial and not as supportive as earlier versions. Also, the sole is not as wide as previous versions either. I would appreciate the previous "net" type upper and wider sole. This shoes does not feel like it will be durable with heavy running wear. Seems more like a walking shoe.

Took some getting used to. The knit fabric of the uppers fit snug, but not tight. But you don't have the open space of a normal toe box.

I’m afraid these are going to be part of the runtastic return policy. I speed walk 60-90 miles a week so I go thru shoes about every 35 days or so. Recently switched into these after starting to have foot pain w gel nimbus 23. Last pair of gel cumulus was great right up until they were worn out then caused a lot of blistering and foot pain. This pair was good for one day and has been pretty awful since. I’m having to alternate between different socks and moleskin just to get my moneys worth out of them. But in the end I think these are going back becuase I’m trying to hit 100 miles a week in august and I can’t have shoes tearing up my feet.

While these are fine, they do not fit like my Gel Cumulus Retro Tokyo. I'd like to find more of those but they are no longer made.

I ordered this shoe and the Nimbus 23 in the same size (9.5 2E). The Cumulus was not only a smidge shorter it was also narrower. I returned the Cumulus 23.

I I only buy ASICS. But this particular shoe was a lot tighter than my previous pairs. I always buy the same model so not sure what happen! Possibly just a Manufacturing defect?
