FAQs
Are the Gel-NYC 2.0 shoes waterproof?
No, they feature a suede upper which is porous and can be damaged by water. It is recommended to apply a suede-specific protective spray.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While they provide good support, they are designed primarily as lifestyle trainers rather than performance-specific gym shoes.
Do these trainers run true to size?
Yes, they generally align with standard adult sizing for Asics trainers.
What is the benefit of the TRUSSTIC support unit?
The TRUSSTIC unit enhances stability by bridging the gap between the heel and the forefoot, preventing excessive midfoot torsion.
How should I clean the suede if it gets muddy?
Allow the mud to dry completely, then gently brush it off. If a stain remains, use a dedicated suede cleaner foam sparingly.
Troubleshooting
Visible surface dust on suede
Gently brush the suede in one direction using a dry, soft-bristled brush to lift dust from the fibers.
Creasing at the forefoot
This is a natural result of the suede material and walking; use a shoe tree when not in use to help the shoe retain its shape.
Dirt stains on the midsole
Wipe the rubber midsole clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, being careful not to let water touch the suede sections.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Asics Gel-NYC 2.0 Trainers remain in top condition, proper care is essential:
- Routine Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or debris from the suede surface.
- Moisture Protection: Apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede to prevent weather damage.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
- Handling Stains: Use a specialized suede eraser or cleaning block for targeted spot cleaning rather than soaking the material in water.
