ASICS Women's Gel-Cumulus 16 Lite-Show Running Shoe

I love ASICS running shoes from when I could run a few years ago. They perfect for a wider with foot with excellent heel grip and good arches. Last year I developed Plantar fasciitis and went to Kohl's to get a cheaper pair for every day; I spent 50 and get a pair of hard ASICS that were very uncomfortable and no heel grip, I wore them and the plantar just got worse for several months. I researched this pair and invested in a better model through Amazon and I love them. They are lightweight, flexible, yet very supportive. Sadly, I am not running any more due to several vascular developments in my legs in 2013, but I still would invest in these shoes for every day. I heel slip in my Brooks and Nikes have always been way to narrow. After some treatment, this shoe and strengthening my calf muscles that fell apart from the vascular issues - my foot feels great again!

I've never been a runner...at least not any longer than a few minutes without getting shin pains and an ache in my foot. Then a friend explained pronation- and the importance of getting a shoe specifically geared for your foot. Honestly, I thought all running shoes were the same with a few different bells & whistles. Boy, I had no idea how much I didn't know. After doing some online research, I narrowed my search down to a few options, across several brands, that help supination. I went to a big-box sports store to actually try each type out and the Cumulus won hands down. Waited to buy them through Amazon (better price). I've only had them a week- and just a few runs, but there is significant improvement. I've just started the Couch-to-5k 9week training app, and right now my running is made up of walking/running intervals. But in those running moments, I'm NOT experiencing anymore foot or shin pain. We'll see if there's difference once I'm running in longer intervals, but based on current performance, I have hope. Quick note about sizing- I have a wide foot, and was skeptical about getting a regular-fit shoe. I've had issues in the past, sometimes brought on later in my workout when your feet swell. So far, that hasn't been a problem. They fit really well, without feeling tight.

I have been having problems finding shoes that fit properly and that will not fall apart. I have a narrow heal, wider towards the toes, and wear a small size, which is difficult to find in stores in our area. For the most, I like the style, yet I found other styles that I liked better. Fit and comfort is most important.

Love these! They are very comfortable and I can wear all day without any issues. I have foot problems and somewhat wide feet so finding shoes that fit and are comfortable can be a challenge but these are great. If you have a narrow foot these may be a little wide for you. They are as pictured and very cute. They have a little color but aren't bright all over like a lot of athletic shoes seem to be lately. I can't really think of anything that I don't like about them. I ordered a second pair in case I can't find these after the first pair wears out!

Since this model runs small I ordered up 1/2 size (8 versus 7.5), and it fits well in both the box and heel. Support and cushioning are great for runners with underpronation, and the foot feels stable while running.

I love these shoes!!! I first had the previous model of this shoe (the Cumulus 15) and loved them. Those were my first real running shoes; I have high arches and tend to get shin splints and got fitted at a running store. Then I got the Nimbus 15, which I liked less (a bit too structured for my liking/comfort). I now have two pairs of Cumulus 16s (one for inside and one for outside) and they are great. They take a bit of breaking in, but they're super comfortable for my 10+ mile runs and they hold up well. I would suggest going up a half size for these (I'm usually a 6.5-7 and a 7 is perfect for me).

I am a big fan of Asics Gel Cumulus shoes. This is my second pair and so far they are holding up very well in all types of weather conditions. This shoe runs about a half size small, I wear a 10 and a 10.5 fits me well. The shoe width is one of the really nice things about this shoe. I can't stand to have my toes crammed into a running shoe, and in this shoe they have plenty of room to move.

I have worn these a couple of times just on the carpet to see if I want to keep them. I wished I had of ordered them in a wide. My right foot goes to sleep after a while. They seem to be a little narrow in the toe box. I ordered them because someone commented on them having a wide toe box. I love the support and they look great. I am probably going to send them back for an exchange if they have them in a wide
