FAQs
Are the ASICS GEL-NYC 2.0 suitable for running marathons?
The GEL-NYC 2.0 is designed more for lifestyle and light training. For marathon running, ASICS offers specific performance running shoe models that provide higher levels of cushioning and support for long distances.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Your heel should be snug, with about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The shoe should feel comfortable without pinching or excessive looseness.
Can I wash these sneakers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these sneakers, especially with leather components, as it can damage the materials and affect the shoe's structure. Hand cleaning 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 for a lighter and more comfortable feel compared to the original GEL-NYC.
Are these shoes waterproof?
These sneakers are not designed to be waterproof. The mesh upper offers breathability but will allow moisture through. They are best suited for dry or mildly wet conditions.
What is the purpose of the TRUSSTIC™ support unit?
The TRUSSTIC™ support unit is integrated into the midsole to provide stability in the midfoot area, helping to control torsional rigidity and prevent the shoe from twisting excessively.
How should I store my ASICS GEL-NYC 2.0 sneakers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree or keeping them in their original box can help maintain their shape and protect them from dust.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase.
Slipping on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides traction, but caution is advised on extremely wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is free from debris.
Discomfort in the arch area
While the TRUSSTIC™ system offers support, some users may prefer additional arch support. Consider using aftermarket insoles if needed.
