GEL-CUMULUS 13

Following the main principles of the GEL-NIMBUS, the GEL-CUMULUS 13 is lighter, but maintains a high level of cushioning and comfort. Improved shock absorption comes from the GEL Cushioning System in both the rearfoot and forefoot areas, and from the gender specific forefoot cushioning – a top layer of lower density injected Solyte, while the gender-specific Space Trusstic System recognises the normal periodic changes in the shape of the woman’s arch and provides for the controlled deformation of the arch into the space within the system, which also gives the GEL-CUMULUS 13 structural integrity and support.

Technologies

Space Trusstic System

Plastic bridge under the arch creating a pocket between it and the midsole which improves flexibility and gives the shoe strength and stability.

AHAR (ASICS High Abrasion Resistant rubber)

Tough material placed in critical areas of heavy contact on the shoe for exceptional durability.

I.G.S. (Impact Guidance System)

The Impact Guidance System (I.G.S.) is an ASICS design philosophy. It aims to make shoe components from rear to midfoot and forefoot to work together effectively to allow the body to perform in a natural manner. ASICS designers strive to compliment, not correct, how the legs and feet move.

Space Trusstic System

Plastic bridge under the arch creating a pocket between it and the midsole which improves flexibility and gives the shoe strength and stability.

AHAR (ASICS High Abrasion Resistant rubber)

Tough material placed in critical areas of heavy contact on the shoe for exceptional durability.

Guidance Line

Guidance Line places a visible groove in the mid and outsole that follows the foot's center of pressure from heel to toe. The result is a more adaptive running platform, creating a smoother transition from heel strike to toe-off with each stride. The Guidance Line thus helps runners to maintain a natural, efficient gait, especially over long distances.

DuraSponge

DuraSponge is a blown AHAR compound for enhanced cushioning and durability in the forefoot. ASICS High Abrasion Resistance Rubber (AHAR) is a tough compound used at the heavy contact area of the outsole.

ComforDry sockliner

Insole placed inside the shoe which provides cushioning keeping the foot drier and cooler.

Solyte Midsole Material

Spongy layer between the sole and upper designed to absorb shock and cushion the foot. Solyte is a lighter material than SpEVA and EVA and features enhanced durability.

3M Reflectivity

Special reflective material which enhances visibility in poor light. 3m Scotchlite is a registered trademark of the 3M Company.

Gender Specific Forefoot Cushioning

Gender Specific Forefoot Cushioning refers to the inclusion of specially formulated Solyte material in the forefoot. The material's density is reduced, allowing the female foot to compress it sufficiently and benefit fully from the bounce-back qualities of Solyte. Traditionally, women's running shoes contained cushioning material of the same density as men's. However, as women are usually lighter than men, the female foot would not fully compress the material, resulting in a less than optimal ride. Gender Specific Forefoot Cushioning addresses this issue and provides women with a more comfortable and responsive ride. The cushioning material, located under the ball of the foot and extending across the width of the shoe, also acts as an efficient shock absorber.
