ASICS Gel-Cumulus 24 Women's Running Shoes
The GEL-CUMULUS 24 shoe is a versatile everyday trainer for various runners covering different distances. From the upper to the foam underfoot, this shoe feels softer and more responsive.
Engineered Mesh Upper
Crafted from an engineered mesh, this upper delivers unmatched breathability. Micro-perforations allow heat and vapour to escape, whilst simultaneously encouraging fresh air to flow in and circulate. This provides a pleasant cooling sensation that helps create the perfect microclimate for happy, healthy feet. An update from the previous Cumulus 23, this mesh is now even softer, for unbeatable comfort. The upper delivers strategic support to targeted areas, giving you a helpful boost and a comfortable wearing experience. This upper works closely with the midsole's movement, which creates a smoother stride from footstrike to toe-off while the reflective details enhance visibility in low-light conditions. Lastly, a traditional lacing system helps to lock the feet down and prevents any excessive movement.
FF BLAST Midsole
To improve cushioning and flexibility, ASICS have added FF BLAST cushioning to the midsole which creates a lightweight impact absorption zone and a responsive energy return. A 3D Space Construction has been implemented to the top layer of the midsole. This technology is implemented through a series of strategically planted pillars within the midsole, allowing runners to experience more compression in a specific area without reducing durability or stability. These pillar formations are tuned differently in the men's and women's models to address each gender's biomechanical data. By helping runners appropriately compress the foam during the landing phase of their stride, this shoe promotes a smoother ride and improves shock absorption. FlyteFoam helps create a smoother and more supportive ride, providing further cushioning and springy rebounds. This is done by utilising the force from your last step to power you into your next one, so you can go further than ever before. Lastly, an OrthoLite X-30 sockliner provides soft step-in comfort.
ASICS Lite Rubber Outsole
Supreme grip and traction are guaranteed with the ASICS Lite Rubber Outsole. ASICS' lightweight, high-abrasion rubber is a tough rubber compound used in heavy-contact or high-wear areas which helps to cut down on excessive wear. The high abrasion outsole provides a strong grip and works to protect itself from damage, and protect users from losing control and slipping. Creating a strong bond with the ground beneath it, the outsole allows you to stay in full control at all times. AHARPLUS rubber has been strategically placed in the heel to improve durability. Flex grooves also adorn the outsole to provide added traction underfoot, the grooves allow for natural foot flexion for easy, unhindered paces. An impact guidance system exists underfoot to enhance the foot's natural gait from heel strike to toe-off. The guidance line exists to enhance gait efficiency while increasing the shoe's torsional rigidity to prevent it from twisting. Lastly, deep flex grooves create smoother transitions through the gait cycle.
