FAQs

What is the primary intended use for the Gel-NYC 2.0 trainers?

These trainers are designed for everyday comfort, casual wear, and light athletic activities. They combine heritage running aesthetics with modern cushioning technology.

Are these trainers suitable for long-distance running?

While they offer good cushioning, they are primarily designed for casual wear and shorter runs. For serious long-distance running, ASICS offers dedicated running shoe models.

How does the GEL™ technology benefit the wearer?

The GEL™ technology inserts are placed in key impact zones to absorb shock effectively, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on your joints.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is constructed with a breathable mesh material, accented with leather overlays for structure and style.

How do I know if I have the correct size?

Your heel should be snug without slipping, and there should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. Try them on at the end of the day when feet are slightly larger.

Can these trainers be worn by women?

While this specific listing is for men's sizes, the GEL-NYC 2.0 series also comes in unisex and women's sizing. Check for specific product listings.

What is the difference between GEL-NYC 2.0 and other ASICS trainers?

The GEL-NYC 2.0 blends heritage ASICS running shoe designs with updated cushioning (FF BLAST™ PLUS) and support systems (TRUSSTIC™) for enhanced comfort suitable for modern lifestyles.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure laces are loosened before putting them on, then adjust for a comfortable fit. If still too tight, consider if this is the correct size or if a different model with a wider fit might be more suitable.

Reduced cushioning effect

The cushioning may become less pronounced over time with heavy use. For optimal performance, consider replacing them after significant wear, typically after 300-500 miles of use depending on activity.

Slipping on wet surfaces

While the rubber outsole provides good traction, caution is advised on very wet or slick surfaces. The design focuses on general grip for everyday use.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently clean the mesh and leather surfaces. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Wipe with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  3. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain their condition.
