FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
The ASICS GEL-NYC Trainers are primarily designed for casual urban wear and daily comfort. While they offer good cushioning, they are not engineered for high-performance running or intense sports activities.
How do I determine the correct size?
These trainers are listed as UK size 7 (men's). It is generally recommended to refer to ASICS' official sizing chart or try on the trainers to ensure the best fit, as sizing can vary between brands and models.
What materials are used in the trainers?
The upper features a combination of leather and textile (mesh and suede panels), while the sole is made from synthetic materials, including foam for the midsole and rubber for the outsole.
Can I machine wash my GEL-NYC trainers?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Please follow the manual spot cleaning instructions provided in the 'Care Instructions' section.
Do these trainers provide good arch support?
The GEL-NYC trainers feature a foam midsole and GEL technology inserts designed to provide a supportive and comfortable ride. The level of arch support may vary based on individual foot anatomy, but they are built for general comfort and support during casual wear.
How do I prevent odor in my trainers?
To prevent odor, allow your trainers to air out after each use. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside when not wearing them. Wearing moisture-wicking socks can also help.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. ASICS sizing can vary slightly; checking their official size guide or trying them on is recommended. Adjusting the lacing technique can also improve fit.
Foot discomfort or rubbing.
Wear appropriate socks to minimize friction. If discomfort persists, inspect the inside for any irregularities. Allow a brief break-in period, as new trainers often need time to conform to your foot.
Stains on suede or mesh panels.
Address stains immediately. For suede, use a suede eraser or specialized cleaner. For mesh and textile, a mild soap solution and a soft brush can be effective. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
Squeaking sound while walking.
This can sometimes occur from friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing and reinserting the insole, or applying a small amount of baby powder underneath it. If the squeak is from the outsole, check for debris.

Care Instructions
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your GEL-NYC Trainers, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning the Upper: For mesh and textile areas, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. For suede sections, use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the materials.
- Cleaning the Sole: Use a brush or damp cloth to clean the rubber outsole and foam midsole, removing any accumulated dirt or debris.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as these can cause materials to shrink or crack.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. You may use shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the structural integrity and materials of the trainers.
