From the Manufacturer
In 1949, Mr. Kihachiro Onitsuka began his athletic footwear company (Onitsuka Co., Ltd.) by manufacturing basketball shoes out of his living room in Kobe, Japan. He chose the name ASICS for his company in 1977, based on a famous Latin phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano," which, when translated, expresses the ancient ideal of "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body." Taking the acronym of this phrase, ASICS was founded on the belief that the best way to create a healthy and happy lifestyle is to promote total health and fitness. Today, ASICS offers a full line of performance-driven athletic shoes and technical active sports apparel and accessories dedicated to bringing harmony to the body and soul.

As an under-pronator with high arches, I had high expectations for this shoe. I read the reviews and ignored some early reviews saying that the shoe felt firmer than prior models. That was a mistake.
The shoe is way too stable and not flexible enough. I feel they made the shoe more stable to market to "slight overpronators", which is a bigger market than the true cushioned shoe market for under-pronators. I'm disappointed in this shoe and feel it should be classified as "structured cushioning" by Asics instead of being placed in their cushioning category. Hopefully they will realize their mistake and make it more flexible in later versions.
I'll revisit this review later if the shoe breaks in better over time. For now, I'm not sure if this is the shoe for under-pronators. Asics makes great shoes. I love their Hyperspeed, Speedstars and Piranhas. Less cushioning, but at least they are flexible for my high arches. I bought the Cumulus for long runs but didn't expect this amount of rigidigity. It's a really firm shoe.

The outer dimensions on this shoe have changed and gotten smaller. I've run with these for many years. Will switch to a competitor brand. I'm very disappointed that ASIC chose to do this.
If you are used to the previous models of this shoe, bring a tape measure along to check the dimensions for yourself.

I loved the Cumulus 13 and the Kayano 17 models. Absolutely loved them. Super cushiony and nice wide toe box. So, everything the other reviewers are saying is true--Asics took the shoe from pillowy and cushioned to rigid and firm. The toe box is noticeably narrower. I'm stuck with mine since I wore them for a full day, but don't waste your money on these if, like me, you really enjoyed the cushioned, cloudy feel of the cumulus 13.
