FAQs

Are the ASICS GEL-NYC trainers suitable for running?

While inspired by running heritage, the GEL-NYC trainers are best suited for casual wear and light activities. For serious or performance-based running, dedicated running shoes are recommended.

How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, a suede eraser or a suede cleaner can be used. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the primary benefit of the GEL technology?

The GEL technology in the midsole is designed to absorb shock effectively, providing enhanced cushioning and comfort during wear.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, especially the suede and GEL components, and compromise the shoe's structure.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is constructed with a combination of airy mesh for breathability and soft suede layers for a premium look and durability.

Are these trainers available in other colors?

The ASICS GEL-NYC series often comes in various colorways. Please check product listings for available options.

What is the main advantage of the rubber outsole?

The rubber outsole provides reliable traction and grip on various surfaces, enhancing stability and preventing slips.

Troubleshooting

Laces not staying tied

Ensure laces are of good quality and tied with a secure double knot. Consider replacing worn-out laces.

Discomfort during initial wear

New shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.

Suede material looking dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and a suede eraser for stubborn marks. Consider a suede protector spray for future prevention.

Slight squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the sole and the insole. Try adding a small amount of talcum powder under the insole.
