Description

The ASICS Gel-Cumulus 28 is a lightweight, neutral trainer reimagined for maximum responsiveness and a cloud-like underfoot feel.

This daily workhorse is designed for runners who need a versatile, comfortable shoe that can handle everything from recovery miles, to long training runs on paved surfaces, to cross training at the gym. Featuring the all-new FF BLAST™ MAX cushioning, this iteration offers ASICS’ most energetic ride yet, ensuring soft landings and a snappy, propulsive toe-off every time your foot hits the ground.

Compared to the Nimbus 28, the Cumulus 28 offers a lower stack height, more springy sensation and better stability. Ideal for those who want a versatile, slightly more stable daily trainer that handles daily training runs, cross-training and faster uptempo work.
