GEL-CUMULUS 13

Under the hood

• Solyte

  Solyte is a proprietary cushioning material that provides an exceptionally lightweight midsole with excellent bounce-back and durability.

• Space Trusstic System

  The Space Trusstic System creates a pocket of space between the hard Trusstic device and the layer of midsole under the foot arch. The pocket allows the ligaments of the foot to extend and flex downward during propulsion. The result is greater comfort and a more efficient foot function during running.

• 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.

• 3M Reflective

  3M scotchlite (a registered trademark of the 3M Company) reflective material enhances visibility during low light hours.

• AHAR+

  ASICS High Abrasion Resistance Rubber (AHAR) is a tough compound used at the heavy contact area of the outsole, for example the heel. It helps to reduce excessive wear. AHAR+ is a lighter version of AHAR.

• ComforDry sockliner

  The ComforDry sockliner provides the optimum cushioning performance that creates a cooler, drier and healthier shoe environment.

• I.G.S.

  The Impact Guidance System (IGS) 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.

• 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. Automatic Guidance Line thus helps runners to maintain a natural, efficient gait, especially over long distances.
