Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they feature advanced cushioning technology, the GEL-NYC 2.0 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual sneaker rather than a dedicated performance running shoe.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can ruin the suede material and compromise the integrity of the foam cushioning. Stick to hand cleaning with appropriate products.
How do I ensure I order the right size?
The sizes listed are in UK Adult sizing. If you have worn Asics previously, we recommend selecting the same size.
What is the purpose of the TRUSSTIC unit?
The TRUSSTIC unit is a support component located in the midfoot that helps stabilize the shoe and prevents excessive twisting during movement.
Are the GEL-NYC 2.0 unisex?
Many variants are marketed as unisex, but it is important to check the specific product listing to ensure the sizing aligns with your gender requirements.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty keeping suede clean
Apply a high-quality suede protector spray immediately after purchase and use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust after every wear.
Feeling too snug across the midfoot
Ensure the laces are adjusted to allow for natural foot expansion throughout the day; if the fit remains uncomfortable, try a thinner sock.

Care Instructions:
- Avoid Moisture: Due to the suede components, avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain or muddy conditions.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper stains, consult a professional leather or suede cleaning kit.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the suede from fading over time.
- Maintenance: Use a suede-safe water repellent spray to add a protective barrier against minor spills.
