FAQs
Are the ASICS GEL-NYC suitable for running?
The ASICS GEL-NYC trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear, offering excellent comfort for daily activities. While they incorporate advanced cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-performance running and may not provide the specialized support required for intense athletic training.
What is the primary inspiration for the GEL-NYC design?
The GEL-NYC design is inspired by a fusion of heritage ASICS models, specifically referencing the aesthetic of the GEL-NIMBUS 3 for the upper construction and utilizing the tooling system from the GEL-CUMULUS 16. Elements from the GEL-MC PLUS V are also incorporated.
How do I clean the leather and mesh parts of the shoe?
To clean the leather and mesh, use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and debris. For more persistent marks, a very mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by a thorough wipe-down with a clean, damp cloth. Always allow the shoes to air dry.
What makes the cushioning in the GEL-NYC unique?
The cushioning is a result of combining lightweight foam with advanced GEL technology inserts within the midsole. This setup, derived from the GEL-CUMULUS 16's tooling, provides significant shock absorption and a comfortable, responsive feel with every step.
Are these trainers available in other colors or sizes?
Yes, the ASICS GEL-NYC series typically comes in a variety of colorways and sizes to suit different preferences. Please check the product listing or ASICS' official channels for the most current availability.
What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?
The lifespan of the trainers depends on usage frequency, walking surface, and care. However, with their leather upper and robust cushioning system, they are built for durability for regular daily wear. Proper care and avoiding extreme conditions will help prolong their life.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight after lacing
Loosen the laces, especially around the forefoot, and re-tie them with less tension. Ensure you have the correct size; consider trying a half-size up if consistently tight.
Slight squeaking sound during walking
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces to see if it subsides. If it persists, check if any part of the sole or insole is loose. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.
Discomfort after extended wear
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for your foot shape. If the discomfort is due to the cushioning, allow more time for the shoes to break in, as the GEL and foam will adapt to your foot.
