Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Asics GEL-Cumulus 16 trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, perform a few light walks or short jogs to allow the foam to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristle brush to remove dried mud. Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid fully submerging in water or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the internal adhesives.
- Drying: Air dry only. Keep away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the midsole foam to harden or lose its structural integrity.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid keeping them in the trunk of a car, where extreme heat fluctuations can compromise the cushioning technology.
