FAQs

What is GEL™ technology?

GEL™ technology is a proprietary cushioning system developed by ASICS, strategically placed in the midsole to absorb shock during impact, providing enhanced comfort and a smoother transition through your stride.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The ASICS GEL-NYC draws inspiration from performance running styles and offers advanced comfort suitable for casual wear and light walking. For dedicated, high-intensity running, ASICS offers specialized running shoes with specific support and cushioning tuned for athletic performance.

How do I determine my correct size?

We recommend referring to the ASICS official sizing guide, which usually includes measurements for foot length. It's often best to measure your foot and compare it to the brand's size chart. If unsure, consider trying them on.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash the ASICS GEL-NYC trainers, especially due to the leather material and advanced cushioning technologies. Machine washing can damage the materials and structural integrity. Please refer to the care instructions for proper cleaning.

What material are these trainers made from?

The ASICS GEL-NYC trainers feature a primary material of leather, contributing to their durability and premium aesthetic, alongside textile and synthetic elements for comfort and structure.

Do these trainers offer good arch support?

The GEL-NYC incorporates a midsole design with lightweight foams and GEL™ technology to provide overall underfoot comfort and support. For specific arch support needs, individual preferences vary, and custom insoles can be used if desired.

What is the general style of the GEL-NYC?

The GEL-NYC blends heritage-inspired running shoe aesthetics with modern design elements, creating a versatile and fashionable trainer. It combines a retro silhouette with contemporary sole crafting, making it a popular choice for sneaker enthusiasts.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Ensure you've selected the correct UK size. Try adjusting the lacing pattern to better accommodate your foot width and arch. Break them in over a few days of short wear.

Squeaking sound when walking

Squeaking can sometimes come from the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, cleaning the area, and placing a thin layer of baby powder or fabric softener sheet underneath before reinserting. Ensure laces are tied securely.

Visible dirt or scuffs on leather

For light dirt, use a soft, damp cloth. For scuffs on leather, a leather conditioner or specific leather cleaner can often help minimize their appearance. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

Unpleasant odour developing

Remove insoles regularly to air out. Use shoe deodorizers or place baking soda packets inside overnight. Ensure shoes dry completely after wear, especially if feet sweat.
