Let's start breaking down these ASICS Gel Cumulus 23, and let's go with what's important, its new features. Compared to its predecessor, the ASICS Gel Cumulus 22, this latest version bets on a significant change in its upper. More specifically in the forefoot area, a strategic point where the product developers from Kobe (Japan) have implemented the innovative 3D Space Construction technology, offering greater compression and softness. Thus, the elastic engineered mesh that wraps the foot is supported by this 3D design, which translates into a one-piece construction and eliminates seams. So we can talk about a comfortable sock-like fit.

Of course we must not forget to mention the characteristic GEL unit, ASICS' trademark, which comes as standard in the heel area, softer than before, with the idea of improving the shock absorption capacity, but also to increase the shoe's reactivity.
