Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?
The GEL-NYC 2.0 sneakers are designed primarily for casual wear and light athletic activities. While they offer cushioning and support, they are not optimized for the demands of marathon running. For competitive long-distance running, specialized marathon shoes are recommended.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the ASICS sizing chart available on their website or consult the product listing for specific size guidance. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the provided UK sizing.
Can I wash these sneakers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these sneakers. The materials, particularly the leather overlays and cushioning components, can be damaged by the washing machine cycle. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.
What is the main difference between the GEL-NYC and GEL-NYC 2.0?
The GEL-NYC 2.0 features an updated midsole formation with FF BLAST™ PLUS cushioning, which creates a lighter and more comfortable feel compared to the first version, while retaining the core aesthetic and support elements.
How durable is the rubber outsole?
The rubber outsole is designed for durability and provides reliable traction for everyday wear and light training. Regular cleaning will help maintain its grip and longevity.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the GEL-NYC 2.0 sneakers are not waterproof. They feature a mesh upper which offers breathability but does not provide protection against water.
Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness upon first wear
The sneakers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time to allow the materials to conform to your foot.
Creasing on leather overlays
Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Regular conditioning of the leather can also help maintain its appearance.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
While designed for durability, cushioning can degrade with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are used for their intended purpose (casual wear, light training) and consider replacement if performance significantly diminishes.
