Experience a soft feel underfoot with the GEL-CUMULUS 26 shoe. This neutral everyday trainer is a versatile choice for various running workouts and distances.​ FF BLAST PLUS cushioning and PureGEL technology are strategically positioned in the midsole. These materials help create softer landings and a more energized toe-off during your training.​
Engineered Mesh Upper
Utilising an updated engineered mesh upper, the Gel-Cumulus 26 shoes will work to keep your feet cool and comfortable during training and running. The mesh construction allows air to flow freely through the uppers of these shoes, keeping feet cool and preventing them from overheating during high-heat activities. Not only this, but the uppers have a great level of stretch to prevent restrictions and allow your foot to flex, whilst simultaneously keeping your foot secure and comfortable when wearing. More than 90% of the Polyester used in the engineered mesh upper is also made from recycled materials, providing you with a sustainable choice of footwear for your next training session. To ensure feet are locked in and secure, the shoes have a traditional lace-up construction, alongside a plush tongue and cushioned collar to help prevent irritation or chafing from occurring and stop dirt and debris from entering the shoes. At least 75% of the shoe's main upper material is made with recycled content to reduce waste and carbon emissions. Finally, the uppers of the Gel-Cumulus 26 utilise reflective details to improve visibility during low-light conditions.
FF BLAST PLUS MidsoleUtilising PureGEL technology through the midsole section, the Gel-Cumulus 26 helps to absorb more impact for softer-than-ever landings and provides you with a smoother transition, supplying you with a pair of shoes you can rely on. This works alongside a full-length FF BLAST PLUS midsole to further enhance the cushioning, whilst providing you with lightweight impact absorption and a responsive level of rebound. Working in tandem to further cushion your landing and ensure the impact is absorbed, the shoes have a 2mm increased stack height providing the most underfoot cushioning to date. The midsection of the Gel-Cumulus 26s also utilises an Ortholite X-30 sockliner, which provides you with soft step-in comfort.
AHAR LO and AHAR PLUS Rubber OutsoleSupplying you with exceptional grip and traction on varying surfaces, the shoes utilise a combination of AHAR LO and AHAR PLUS rubber. These highly abrasive rubbers are strategically placed throughout the outsole, to provide you with a great deal of grip and traction, whilst also reducing the overall weight of the shoe and ensuring durability is still provided.
