New colours for autumn/winter 07.

A running shoe that has been designed specifically for treadmill use. On a treadmill empirical evidence shows your feet land slightly differently (possibly due to your perception that you are in a more confined area) and your biomechanics are also different as the belt drives itself backwards rather than you pushing off forwards in the same way as with outdoor running. This shoe takes that into account in the way the cushioning and support are set up.

While the Kinsei comes in at the top end of the ASICS cushioning line the Nimbus is going to offer more than enough comfort and protection for the vast majority of runners. It also has a more traditional feel. By 'traditional' we do not mean average though. The cushioning is good from heel to toe. The shoe is quite stable given it is neutral with your foot nicely steered through a good motion. The fit is nice and a well padded upper keeps things positive.

The Cumulus has been repositioned in the ASICS line with this shoe. The new running shoe is basically a neutral 2000 series shoe. Given the popularity of the 2000 series that would seem to be a good move. However, the quality of the Nimbus would tempt us to part with the extra cash and go for that.

The Kinsei offers a huge amount of cushioning in the heel. The shock absorption feels great. While it is not so striking the forefoot is also well protected and you may be pleasantly surprised at how stable the shoe is - especially in the heel. Of course all this comes at a price and for most people the level of protection on offer is a luxury rather than a necessity. Carried over from the first half of 2007

A good mix of stability and cushioning sees your foot given a smooth ride that guides your foot and gives good shock absorption.
