I have the nimbus 15 and it feels and does great. The size is correct. I ordered the Gel-Cumulus 15 lite shoe to rotate shoes for running. It fits snug and tight. I had to send it back and get a 1/2 size larger. This shoe has alot of cushion and is very light. It really feels great. I recommend it but try it on instead of ordering online it you can because it runs smaller.Best Deals for ASICS Men's Gel-Cumulus 15 Lite-Show Running Shoe
I absolutely love those shoes. They are very comfortable with a lot of padding for shock absorption, great foot balance, and a general feel of light-weight sturdiness.I have a fairly thick body frame, weigh ca. 180 lbs, my feet are somewhat overpronated, and I attack the ground with my heel first when running -this is why I need a lot of protection and a solid base in a shoe or else I risk an injury. The new Cumulus delivers what I need. Although I should probably wait another couple of months before making a definite judgment on how much punishment the shoe can take, I can say already that it is well-designed and well-made, and so far it looks like good buy.
About the size: the shoe does tend to run small compared to other brands. When I first put it on, I was afraid I would need to send it back. But after I gave it a try, I actually decided that it is good for size, but snug. In particular, the upper lining in the back is high and thickly padded, pushing your heel a bit forward. But when you are running rather than standing, your body leans forward a little, so the angle at the ankle joint changes, and so does the shoe fit. If you want a shoe that holds your foot tight for protection and a balance, it really should not be very loose. If you do want it lose, order half a size larger than usual.
About the laces: they are kind of short. Again, no complaint there: I actually prefer them short in running shoes, so that don't drag or bounce. Also, if you tie your shoes tight, you would obviously end with more lace to tie with.
About the stitching and sole: the outsole is solid, bends well for all the gel they put in it, offers a good grip on asphalt, dirt, and gravel. The stitchings are nice; in the pair I got there were no loose ends, excess glue, etc. so the build quality looks good.
