FAQs
Are the ASICS Gel-NYC trainers suitable for long-distance running?
The Gel-NYC trainers offer good cushioning with GEL technology, making them suitable for moderate distances. For very long distances or marathon training, you might consider models specifically designed for endurance running.
How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by ASICS or the retailer. It's generally recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the chart. Trying them on in person is the most reliable method.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
It is not recommended to machine wash ASICS Gel-NYC trainers. Hand washing with a mild detergent and a soft brush is the preferred method for cleaning.
What is the main difference between the GEL-NYC and other ASICS running shoes?
The Gel-NYC often blends heritage design with modern cushioning technology, making it a versatile option for both lifestyle and light athletic activities. Other ASICS lines might be more specialized for performance running, trail running, or specific support needs.
How does the 'pre-shaped upper' benefit the wearer?
The pre-shaped upper is designed to conform more closely to the natural shape of the foot, providing an enhanced, comfortable fit right out of the box and reducing the need for an extensive break-in period.
What types of surfaces are these trainers best suited for?
These trainers are primarily designed for hard surfaces such as roads, pavements, gym floors, and general training environments.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size and width. Break in the shoes gradually. Check sock compatibility and consider adding a different insole if needed.
Reduced cushioning over time
The GEL technology is designed for durability, but cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if significant wear is evident.
Slipping during lateral movements
Verify that the shoes are laced properly for a secure fit. The outsole is designed for general traction; for highly specialized sports, consider footwear designed for that specific discipline.
