    I have been very confused on where asics is going with the cumulus. Ive always thought of the cumulus as the “lighter” and speedier version of nimbus. And i thought it weird that they would advertise these as the most cushioned comfortable cumulus to date. Your review enlightened me on the difference of the 2. Keep it up and thank you for the honest review/ opinion. 😊

    Great honest review 👍. I tried the cumulus 25 yesterday in the shop and they felt so comfortable and the fit was great. I did however go In to buy the novablast 3 LE and I left with the novablast 3 LE. They just felt lighter and alot more breathable, I could literally feel the difference just trying them on in the stores. Haven't actually tried them yet but can't wait to hit the cobbles with them and i feel that they will give me enough cushioning to deal with the 15 stone on top of them , hopefully anyway 😀. Worth mentioning that I did have to go up half a size as normal 10 was just too snug.

    Got a pair of these in yesterday, and personally, I'm stoked. These feel phenomenal. I'm moving away from very high stacked, high cushioned, super soft shoes (like the Nimbus 25), and although these would've been considered that a few years ago they are an outstanding balance between cushioning, responsiveness, and comfort, along with good stability for a "neutral" shoe and a roomy toe box. They've almost immediately replaced my Ride 15s, 1080v12s, and Novablast 2s, among others. I'm also a medical professional, so with Asics' SheerID program I got these for 40% off ($84 USD). I'm highly impressed; wow. Just discovered your channel; truly enjoy your reviews and positivity. Great work man, much respect.

    Thanks for the video! I just did my first run in the nimbus 25. I wanted a more cushioned shoe than my rebel v3, as I am begining to reach to the 10 mile distance mark. However, I guess because of the stack height, softness, and rocker shape, I kicked myself with pretty much every stride. It was the worst ride ever. I am planning to return and try the cumulus. They are not as cushioned as the nimubs, but are still thicker than the Rebels which only have 21mm at the fore foot. With the Cumulus being 30 mm at the fore foot, I am hoping it's the best of both worlds.

    It seems that the build quality of the Gel-Cumulus 25 is similar to the Gel-Nimbus 25 ! Last year I did not get both 24th versions, but this year I plan to once again pair the Gel-Cumulus with the Gel-Nimbus . Asics is getting better and better every single year now.

    Enjoyed the video and I can't argue with your conclusion. I'm still in Gel-Nimbus 24s but based on that experience my guess is that I'd agree with your contradictory summary as well. I can't walk across my bedroom without tripping over shoes that are lighter and more responsive. What sets them apart is how good my legs feel when I've already been running in them for an hour. It's gotta be the squish. But I don't know what they were thinking with those lace loops either.😆Keep the great videos coming, Aubrey!

Not just padding and plush materials but especially being able to run smoothly with a natural motion when I'm just ticking over the miles.

    Runners always need to rotate their shoes. So, having one Cumulus and one Nimbus might be logical to rotate each other. You can make your intervals, short runs, and speed trials with cumulus by capitalizing on its stability and return of the energy. Also, you may run with Nimbus for your daily training and long runs to feel more comfy. Personally, I have a pair of Nimbus but I am considering having one Cumulus or Kayano 30 too.

    Everyone has different feet. Mine seems to favor the nimbus more. I find it fits my feet like a glove. But I do understand why someone may opt for the cumulus if they had one shoe to do it all. So in my opinion if you're looking for a humble workhorse that can do it all, you should opt for the Cumulus. But if you have some money to spare and want a dedicated recovery/trainer you should go for the Nimbus with the knowledge that you will have another pair shoes for those moderate/speed workouts.

    I find the cumulus more comfortable overall. The decoupled groove in the shoe I find gives more cushion and more pop on toe off. The upper is also lighter, more breathable, and more roomier. It's definitely a more versatile shoe over the nimbus. I like the looks of the nimbus better, tho especially in the all black. The nimbus also has a better mid foot hold, in my opinion, as it offers that stretch tongue , sock like feel. You can't go wrong with either shoe. Definitely 2 of the best on the market today.

In the past it would be a no-brainer and I would just get the Cumulus but after having worn the Nimbus and liked those 23's, I have no idea which one to go with today having not tried on any Cumulus in the past few years.

    For me the question is whether the Cumulus 25 is as good as the Nimbus 24 which is a great shoe for easy to moderate runs. It's also less expensive than the Cumulus 25. I did try the Nimbus 25 and it wasn't for me. It's so soft that when you run the midsole bulges out the sides of the shoe. I imagine the foam will only get softer in the summer.

    I really can’t wait to try the Cumulus25. I’ve been waiting for it since I saw the shoes on RunningWarehouse channel a while ago. The thing is I have to go for the Wide (US8) version and for Women’s, and there is only one colorway😢. Or I have to get the Men’s size US6.5 from Japan (elsewhere in the world Men’s size starts at US7!!!) For Asics, the standard width for Men’s shoes is D which is equivalent to Wide in Women’s. [The standard width in Women’s sizes are too narrow for me😞]

      My favourite shoe is like your, Gel Nimbus25😊 Although I am small in height and weight, I like the protection the midsole of the Nimbus25 gives my petite body (156 cm/49kg). My second favourite shoe is the On Clouldsurfer7, less foam than the Nimbus25 but very pleasant ride.

    Hello, I'm choosing new sneakers, I'd like them from asics (they fit my foot best of all the brands) and I don't know which model to get. I don't want any high-end model like meta speed, rather one that has good suspension for daily comfortable walking and doing all kinds of outdoor sports activities). As I looked, there are two models that would most suit what I want, and that is either Gel Nimbus 25 or Novablast 3. I don't know which one to choose. I heard that Nimbus 25 is better overall. My current sneakers are Novablast 1. The only thing that bothers me about them is that they don't seem that soft and sometimes quite unstable. That's why I thought I'd try the Nimbus model. Do you think it is a good choice? Thank you in advance for your reply.

    • @AubreyRunning
      @AubreyRunning  Рік тому +1

      So… I’ve never ran in the novablast shoes but can vouch for the gel nimbus 25 but also would suggest that consider the cumulus 25. These are both amazing shoes.
      With that said though, the novablast 3 has had very good reviews. Have you also looked into superblast?

  • @EJB3III
    @EJB3III 5 місяців тому

    Out of the box, I've found the Cumulus to be better as well. It's actually been my favorite daily trainer so far (and I've bought far more than anyone should). Not only is it lighter and more versatile, but it even seems softer. Does the Nimbus require break-in time? I've heard people call the Cumulus firm which confuses me because the Nimbus too me has been the one that seems firm in comparison. I'm new to running consistently so maybe I just don't understand running vocabulary yet.

    Hello.
    I have done 500 km with the asics cummulus. I m a big guy myself and choose comfyness over anything else. I got 2 pairs a 46 size for daily street walk or office and 46+1/2 for running acrivities. My next cummulus is a 47 size for running as at 500 Km I ve pretty mutch destroyed my previous. I ve done small hole on the right side of toe box. Also I think the foam power is kind of decreased. Now , in comparison with the Nimbus the accumulus feels mutch better , the foot feels more stable , there is more stuff holding the shoe together. If your tall.. the ninbus is like.. a very weird high shoe.

    Your videos are professional and you really put your personality and character into it when you talk about these shoes, it's nice! Another thing what connect with me is that i'm also quite a top heavy guy. Whatever people have been saying about the Novablast 3, i've been noticing and feeling in the nimbus 25, the novablast 3 bottomed out for me after just 150k. It seems that if you weigh more then 80kg, you really should consider maybe having a bit of a firmer ride, or a bit more stack height, since you will loose more energy in softer foams and have more leg pounding in lower stacks. Keep up the great work!

      @@AubreyRunning For training, it's not the Nimbus 25. It's actually the SC trainer v1, took me a long time to get used to it. You need to learn how to run in it, activate that sweet spot, it's a bizare shoe.But it's truly something special, specifically for any longer runs where i don't have to push the pace, it's the best shoe ever.
      For my daily training it is the Nimbus 25 as you can gather. That used to be the novablast but it kept bottoming out. So replaced it.

    Compared to nimbus 25, I agree that cumulus are better for lightweight runner. Thought its harder;at lease for me; to compress and get the pop from the ffblast+. I wish they tweak tiny bit softer so I don't need to "stomp" to get the energy return lol.
    Not sure if I miss out from the review that the outsole is kind of downgrade from the classic asics, I feel less confident specifically in wet or even dry smooth surfaces. do you feel the same?
