FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The GEL-CUMULUS 16 is primarily designed for lifestyle comfort and everyday wear. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact running compared to dedicated ASICS running models.
What is the primary benefit of the GEL cushioning?
The GEL cushioning technology is designed to absorb shock effectively during impact, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on your joints.
How do I know if this UK size 12 is the right fit?
It is recommended to try them on with your usual socks. You can also compare your foot measurements to the ASICS sizing guide available online. Consider the shoe's internal length and width.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
The trainers offer some protection, but they are not waterproof. The rubber outsole provides traction, but caution is advised on very wet or slippery surfaces. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain.
What is the difference between FLYTEFOAM and FLUIDRIDE?
FLYTEFOAM is an extremely lightweight midsole material offering excellent bounce-back and durability. FLUIDRIDE is a technology that combines two different densities of foam and rubber for a cushioned, responsive, and durable ride.
How often should I clean my trainers?
Clean your trainers as needed, especially after significant wear or exposure to dirt. Regular spot cleaning and airing them out will help maintain their condition and odor.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels slightly off
Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks. If still uncomfortable, consider the break-in period or consult the ASICS sizing chart for accurate measurements.
Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time
The cushioning may naturally compress with extensive use. Regular cleaning and proper storage can help maintain performance. If the cushioning feels significantly diminished, it may be time to consider replacement.
Traction seems poor on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole is designed for general traction. For enhanced grip on very wet or slippery surfaces, exercise caution. Ensure the outsole is clean, as dirt or debris can affect grip.
Discomfort or rubbing on the heel/sides
This could be due to the break-in period or incorrect lacing. Try adjusting the lacing pattern or wearing thicker socks. If the issue persists after a week of wear, there might be a fit issue.

Care Instructions:
