From the Manufacturer
In 1949, Mr. Kihachiro Onitsuka began his athletic footwear company (Onitsuka Co., Ltd.) by manufacturing basketball shoes out of his living room in Kobe, Japan. He chose the name ASICS for his company in 1977, based on a famous Latin phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano," which, when translated, expresses the ancient ideal of "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body." Taking the acronym of this phrase, ASICS was founded on the belief that the best way to create a healthy and happy lifestyle is to promote total health and fitness. Today, ASICS offers a full line of performance-driven athletic shoes and technical active sports apparel and accessories dedicated to bringing harmony to the body and soul.

Great training shoe
I am a 5'9" 175 lb. male who runs 40-50 miles a week with a long run that's up to 18 miles. I'm a neutral runner with slight supination. I have a fairly narrow heal, which can sometimes be a problem when looking for that perfect fit. I initially bought the Cumulus 11s when training for my first half marathon. I am on my second pair of Cumulus 11 shoes and very happy with them.
Being fairly stout and not having been blessed with a runner's body, I need training shoes with some cushion to save my knees on those long runs. The Asics Cumulus 11 provides that cushion, without too much shoe. They feel light and I run faster in these shoes than my Brooks Launch light weight trainers (which I also like very much). The mesh toe box is comfortable, without any constricting shoe material. These shoes fit true to size and are good to go, right out of the box. I didn't keep the best mileage log on the first pair, but I figure I got about 450-500 miles out of them, running primarily on roads. I'm sure I'll end up buying a third pair before too long.
Not as good as the 10
I have had 3 pairs of Gel Cumulus 10's and loved them. I couldn't find them anymore, so I moved up to the 11. The 11 has the same feel on the heel, good support and comfort, but the changes that appear to have been made to the fore-foot of the shoe are my complaint. The front of the shoe feels thicker, less flexible, and I have noticed a bit more pressure on the ball of my foot. I didn't experience this with any of my 10's. Overall, still comfortable, but some negatives.
ASICs just aren't holding up like they used to.
I have been wearing ASICs Gel Cumulus models for the past 5 years or so. I generally order 2 or 3 pairs at a time. I run over 20 marathons or ultras a year and my training generally consists of a 13-20 mile long run on weekends when I am not running a race and maybe 5 miles a day during the week. I have noticed that the last couple of generations of Gel Cumulus aren't holding up like the older models. The soles are literally falling apart after just a couple hundred miles. I have also noticed a change in the forefoot design that seems to be causing pain. I am on the look out for a new shoe brand since I don't have faith in ASICs.
