Great shoe! Unfortunately had to return, too wide for my skinny feet. Fortunately found Kayano in narrow and I have happy feet!

I like the feel of the new shoes but they dont feel secure with the new tongue design. Feels to wobbly to comfortably run in.

I recently received the cosmos/ash rock color, and it is just beautiful, and nice fit.

I use these shoes for walking and hiking. This is my second pair. My first pair was a good fit and comfortable. This new pair is not well made: the side of the left shoe hits against my ankle bone as I walk and after a while it becomes painful. I wish I had returned them before I started walking outside but the problem didn't reveal itself when I tried them inside.

This shoe has a strange fit on the inside, it felt unlevel and odd. Really liked the style and color, the fit is off.

Usually I wear a 9.5 wide in my shoes, but definitely had to size up .5 in these as my pinky toes were being pinched. The cushioning on these sneakers is really strange. No doubt it's plush, but it feels super concentrated in the ball of the foot - almost like there's an air pocket there. I'd rather have a more uniform feeling sneaker so I'm going to keep looking. Style wise these are really cute.

Based on reviews I was ready to love these and specifically ordered Wide width. Normally I'm medium. The front top of the shoe "curves" into the big toe on both shoes, pushing the big toe into other toes. Not good. Also, the back outer leather is pretty high, cutting into the ankle. Disappointed.

Asics fit me best, but this version has no arch support, so I will return them. Will continue to search as whenever they make a change to a shoe, it is not the same fit.

These felt great until walking. They were wider in width and length. There is no structure in the upper shoe, all fabric and very elastic. Sole is too wide at the toes. Not enough overall support for fast-walking distances and width of the sole is awkward.
I'd also recommend:
I have been wearing only Asics for fit, appearance and quality.

While I loved the color on these and the fact that the shoe/toe box was wide enough for my foot, this was not enough for me to want to wear them. Did a very short run in them and I didn't find them comfortable at all. The entire bottom of my foot was sore and in pain, which I've never had from a running shoe. By the time I finished my run I couldn't get the shoe off fast enough.

Fit and size felt fine when ordered. All tred wore off of sole, had to throw away after three months as the soles were completely smooth and slippery

Asics. I would never buy Gel Cumi

This was my first pair of asics that were a horrible fit. I wore them once thinking they would fit like my others and the sides came up so high and kept digging into my ankle bones to the point where they hurt. I can’t even walk in them. So disappointed for the price.

The quality was terrible. I’ve been running in ASICS for a decade or so. I overpronate and have knee / hip pain at times and ASICS work great. Unfortunately these shoes were apparently made out of garbage materials. During my first run I could tell these ASICS were not like the dozen other pairs I have enjoyed over the years. The shoddy material ruined my run. This is the first time I have returned shoes after wearing them outside, that’s how bad they are.

These shoes had already been returned(unworn) and I could tell why. I'm not sure what happened with the design. I've have several pairs of 25. The heal cups have no cushioning. All you feel is solid metal. I wear an medium, but they were also too tight. I returned and found the older model.

I was not pleased with these shoes as they felt wider in the forefoot than I wanted.

Very frustrated. I ordered the 9.5 wide in this shoe. (I wear an 8.5 Wide in the ASIC Gel Pulse) and it was way too big. I returned the shoes and ordered the 9.0 Wide and my big toes were touching the top of the shoes. There is a ridiculous difference in size between the 9.5 and the 9.0. I’m very frustrated with ASICS. It appears their shoes vary WAY too much. I’ve just wasted a lot of time for nothing.

I’m a runner and have ordered ASICS through Zappos for many years. I ordered these shoes for a race and they are uncomfortable, especially in the toe bed. After the run, my feet throbbed and my left toe was painful and swollen. I’ve never experienced this with ASICS before. Because they were worn in the race, Zappos refused to accept a return or offer a credit. My history with Zappos and ASICS means nothing, apparently. Very frustrated.

I've been an Asics loyalist for 10+ years and had worn a number of the previous Cumulus models. The Cumulus 26 felt great on my feet when I put them on, but it's become clear since then that the design has completely shifted, for the worse. The shoes feel flat and lacking in support, despite all the extra cushioning. I think there might be a heel drop difference between this model and the 23s even though both are supposedly 8 mm. I had to stop running in these shoes because they gave me persistent top-of-foot pain and my IT band started to act up. If Asics wanted to mess around with the formula I wish they'd done it with a new model, not ruining my favorite line.
