The Nike Pegasus is another example of this preference with its softer PSI air pod at the forefoot than the men’s. In this case, you are also responsible for the risk of loss or damage, therefore we recommed a postal insurance to cover the value. I had a little heel slip, but there’s a second lace hole at the top of the patter and the laces are long enough to do a modified lacing technique that solved any issues.

For racing flats we ensure that we have completed intervals, a tempo or steady state run run as well as a warm up and cool down in each pair prior to review. It’s a multipurpose, do-everything shoe which is why it’s been such a crowd pleaser for over two decades. The Cumulus upper is clearly superior to the plasticky awkward fitting (for me) Nova’s and is roomier to boot. They have stood out for their innovative character, especially in the sports and sustainability area, creating the ASICS Institute of Sports Sciences in Japan, for which they have obtained several external recognitions.The shoe may not wow you with its performance, or be the envy of onlooking eyes, but it’s consistent in its ride and doesn’t try to be something it’s not.

It's made of a very lightweight EVA foam, which is reinforced with FlyteFoam technology, a nanofibre architecture that adds to durability. It is a bit lighter than the more plush Gel Nimbus 23, but tips the scales over the lighter and more modern Gel Nimbus Lite 2. If this is not lined up well, there may be excessive pressure into the ligaments, small muscles, tendons, bones and the anterior portion of the plantar fascia.

This new heel design has deeper forefoot flex grooves and a softer midsole foam to give you a plush ride.

Wrapping the foot with an even softer feel, the engineered mesh upper adds strategic support in targeted areas while leaving some of the fibers more open to improve breathability.I wear these every day for a 5k each way to and from work on a mixture of pavements, parkland pathways and fields They are well cushioned, so I don't feel the pavements, and they keep my heels locked, yet at the same time have space for my toes to move naturally. The density of the rubber on the Cumulus 23 is higher than that of the Nimbus 23 which leads to firmer landings but increased durability. Ahead of many Asics shoes with the change to a full ground contact outsole 3-4 years ago, the newest version makes some changes to soften the ride, widen the fit and make it a bit more accommodating.
