FAQs
How do I know if I have the correct size?
The trainers are listed in UK adult sizes. It's recommended to check the ASICS sizing chart or compare to your known US size. This specific model (UK 11) corresponds to a US 9.5.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The ASICS GEL-NYC trainers feature GEL cushioning for comfort and shock absorption, making them suitable for everyday wear and walking. However, they are not specifically designed as performance running shoes.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials (leather, suede, mesh) and the GEL cushioning technology.
How should I clean the suede parts?
Use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, a suede eraser or a damp cloth followed by air drying is recommended. Avoid excessive water.
What is the primary benefit of the GEL technology?
The Rearfoot and Forefoot GEL technology provides excellent shock absorption, reducing impact during movement and offering enhanced cushioning for comfort.
What is the difference between this model and other ASICS trainers?
The GEL-NYC utilizes GEL-CUMULUS 16 tooling and a specific combination of materials for its unique aesthetic and comfort profile, distinguishing it from other series which may have different sole technologies or designs.
Are these trainers waterproof?
These trainers are not waterproof. The mesh and leather materials offer some resistance to light moisture, but they are not designed for wet conditions.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound from shoes
This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components or moisture. Try loosening the laces slightly or ensure the insoles are properly seated. If persistent, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.
Discomfort or pressure points
Ensure you have the correct size. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. If discomfort persists, check lacing for tightness and consider if the shoe's structure is suitable for your foot type.
Material scuffing or staining
Address stains promptly using appropriate cleaning methods for leather, suede, and mesh. For scuffs on leather, a leather conditioner or polish may help. For suede, a suede eraser can be effective.
