The upper of the ASICS GEL-NYC shoes is crafted from durable and stylish leather.
The GEL-NYC takes inspiration from the iconic GEL-NIMBUS 3 and the GEL-MC PLUS V for its upper design, and features tooling from the GEL-CUMULUS 16.
While the ASICS GEL-NYC draws inspiration from ASICS' running heritage and features advanced cushioning, it is primarily designed for urban comfort and everyday lifestyle wear, not high-performance running.
The advanced GEL technology inserts provide superior shock absorption and cushioning, ensuring maximum comfort and support with every step, especially during urban walking.
For cleaning, wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Always allow them to air dry naturally and consider using a leather protector and conditioner regularly.
As the shoes feature a leather upper, it's advisable to avoid heavy rain or standing water. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry thoroughly. Applying a water-repellent leather protector can offer some protection.
Leather shoes often require a brief break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house. Ensure you're wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, verify you have the correct size.
Clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For scuffs, use a leather cleaner or a specialized leather scuff remover. Follow up with a leather conditioner to restore shine and suppleness.
This can sometimes be caused by friction between parts of the shoe or between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole and sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe. Reinsert the insole. If the squeak persists, check if it's coming from the outsole and clean it thoroughly.
While GEL technology and lightweight foams are durable, cushioning can compress over extensive use. Ensure you are allowing the shoes to air out between wears. If the insoles are removable, consider replacing them with new ones for renewed comfort.
