FAQs
Are the ASICS GEL-NYC trainers suitable for running marathons?
The GEL-NYC trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and light training. While they offer good cushioning, they may not provide the specialized support and features required for marathon running. For such activities, ASICS offers dedicated running shoe models.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Measure your foot length and compare it to the ASICS size chart. Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The trainers should feel snug around the heel and midfoot without being constricting.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the rubber outsole offers some grip, the mesh and suede materials are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage to the materials and maintain comfort.
What is the difference between the GEL-NYC and other ASICS models?
The GEL-NYC specifically merges design elements from past ASICS models like the GEL-NIMBUS 3 and GEL-MC PLUS with the modern GEL-CUMULUS 16 tooling system. This creates a unique aesthetic rooted in ASICS' heritage while incorporating current comfort technology.
How often should I clean my GEL-NYC trainers?
Clean your trainers as needed, especially if they become visibly dirty or stained. Regular spot cleaning can help maintain their appearance and prevent dirt from setting in.
Are these trainers available in wide or narrow fit options?
Availability of wide or narrow fits depends on the specific product release and region. Please check the product listing or consult with ASICS customer support for available options.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure the laces are tied correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially.
Squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur due to friction between parts of the shoe or the insole. Try removing the insole, cleaning both it and the inside of the shoe, and then replacing the insole.
Loss of cushioning over time
While GEL technology is durable, cushioning may naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider rotating with another pair of shoes to prolong their lifespan and effectiveness.
Material discoloration
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean the shoes according to the care instructions, using appropriate cleaners for suede, leather, and mesh.
