Do you like the softer plush sort of max cushion vibe of the Nimbus? Or, do you like the more standard firmer and a little more responsive kind of ride of the Cumulus? I like a more max cushion plush feel underfoot. But for me, I would go with the Nimbus Lite over and over again. The major selling point for me is the midsole. Again, do you like a softer ride Nimbus or do you like a more responsive firm ride Cumulus? So there you have it. This kind of concludes Asics Nimbus vs Cumulus comparison.
I hope I was able to make the picture as clear in your mind as possible. So, are you team Nimbus Lite or team Cumulus 22? Both are really solid shoes from a great brand, Asics.

The cool thing with Asics is they do offer a variety of widths in their key running shoes. The Nimbus, the Cumulus and the Pursue do come in a variety of widths. Asics and other brands do that quite well, but Asics especially. As always with all my reviews if you need something clarified contact our Sportitude shoe experts.

Widths The cool thing with Asics is they do offer a variety of widths in their key running shoes. Until next time, happy running. That is not to say that Gel Cumulus 16 is not superbly cushioned, it is just that, well, something has to be top of the range and the Gel Nimbus 16 is it.
The Gel Cumulus 16 has closed the gap cushioning wise with the introduction of FluidRide technology for the first time in this model. The FluidRide rubber compound in the sole unit is more cushioned and more resilient than the SoLyte technology used in previous Cumulus models.
We have had feedback that the Cumulus 16 is slightly more flexible in the forefoot and combined with its being marginally lighter this is seen as a positive for Gel Cumulus 16 over Gel Nimbus The biggest difference between Gel Nimbus 16 and Gel Cumulus 16 really lies in the quality of the materials used in the upper.
The ample use of memory foam around the collar and tongue of Gel Nimbus 16 gives a really plush feel. Having said that we have had feedback that the use of memory foam has impacted negatively on the breathability of the upper, but that might be splitting hairs.
The heel counter on the Gel Nimbus 16 is a little less rigid than the Gel Cumulus 16 giving a more customised and more comfortable fit at the back of the heel.
The other main difference in the upper is the new FluidFit technology that is used in the Gel Nimbus 16 but is absent for the Gel Cumulus
