The women's Cumulus 23 feel substantially heavier than the Cumulus 22. The toe box is smaller too, causing them to squeeze my toes and result in blisters. They also have less feedback in response to your stride, with more of a memory foam/gel that is not responsive to taking off on tempo runs or faster paces. In summary, the Cumulus 22 were a much better design and fit.

I ordered a wide shoe and this shoe did not feel wide at all. My feet started to go numb after a while.

I could not get these shoes on. I am older and that could be part of the problem ... but the shoe entry was unfriendly and unforgiving. I could not get them on. I would not have tried them if I had understood what kind of opening these shoes had.

I was a Cumulus wearer for years until they changed the model. This new model just isn't cushiony and soft like they were before. It feels quite clunky when I run. Sadly returning them.

I own 2 pr of this style in sz 8 M. This item was uncomfortably small in length and width. What happened here?

I bought this shoe because I read it was good for feet with high arches. Could not be more wrong! I had to take the laces completely out, and I still had a hard time even getting my foot into the shoe. It just crushed my arches once I did. Didn't even take a step in them before sending them back.

I have a normal width foot, but I couldn't get this shoe on because it was so narrow. I didn't realize it had a "sock-like" insert. Seemed like it would have been comfortable to wear, but I opted for a different pair.

It would be great if Asics would come in a women’s size 13 AA. I know There are lots of women that would wear this size of shoe, I am not the only one. I used to wear Asics all the time, then I got neuropathy in my feet, thus having to go up a size in shoes. Thank you!

Very cute shoe. I really wanted to keep it. But so so so uncomfortable. The fit was awkwardly tight in weird places and this is after buying a half size bigger (which I do for all my sneakers). I returned them. Bring back the Dynaflyte!

Instep area is extremely narrow and tight for a supposedly wide shoe.
Wide width is just wide enough for comfort. Returning due to extremely
Narrow instep. Also, seems longer due to rear sole extension.
What happened to the older ASIC a styles that used to fit.
Disappointed, Zappos Customer,

This is a comfortable shoe but very hard to put on and somewhat hard to take off.

I've been running in ASICS Cumulus for years. I know the model changes a bit with each new version released. This model is not working for me. The fit is different. Started with blisters, progressed to ankle pains. I've stopped running in them for fear of injury.

I brought these shoes about a week ago and have worn them twice and they are so uncomfortable. The tongue of the shoe hurts the top of my feet. The shoe overall makes my feet hurt. This was a waste of money...

I bought the same size as I did in 2020 and 2021 (the 21 and 22 models). This 23 model fits tight. I loosened the laces as much as possible. My little toe hits the edge of the shoe. Then I grabbed my existing shoe and held it bottom to bottom with the new one. It's physically smaller!!

These were hard. I bought the exam same pair a few months back in store and they were so comfy. I guess the difference was that I bought the second pair online.

I've been wearing the Gel-Cumulus model for years. My first pair was the Gel-Cumulus 14. They always fit like a glove and were so supportive and comfortable. I bought the Gel-Cumulus 23 model, and they are by far the WORST pair I've ever owned. Honestly, I think the pair I ended up with didn't go through QC or something. There was not nearly the amount of cushion and support I expected, and within a couple weeks I began to experience horrible foot pain in my right foot. I finally put two and two together and realized it must be the shoes. I immediately stopped wearing these for my daily workout, and my foot pain slowly subsided. Needless to say, I threw these away. I switched to Gel-Nimbus and have been very happy with them. Based on the poor quality of the Gel-Cumulus, and the horrible foot pain I experienced, I'm not sure I'll ever buy another pair of Gel-Cumulus...EVER AGAIN.

The tongue on these shoes are so uncomfortable. They have too much material on the tongue so they stay bunched up. I should've returned them already. I will never buy them again.

Site recommended size 12 and it was way too big. Size 11 was not roomy enough in toe. Haven't had good cumulous fit in consistent size since the #21.

This was a bad buy, bought for long runs but the edges are so rough that if you wear ankle socks it injures exposed feet especially layered elastic rounding.

These are not worth it for the price I feel like they would not last. And they run very small. I will be returning
