FAQs
Are the GEL-NYC 2.0 suitable for running?
While inspired by running shoes and featuring running technologies, the GEL-NYC 2.0 is primarily designed for lifestyle wear and everyday comfort. They offer good support for walking and standing but are not optimized for high-impact running.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the ASICS sizing guide and measure your foot. The GEL-NYC 2.0 trainers fit true to standard UK adult male sizing, but athletic shoes can vary. It's recommended to try them on if possible or consult reviews regarding fit.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning components. Hand wash using a damp cloth and mild soap as per the care instructions.
What is the main difference between GEL-NYC and GEL-NYC 2.0?
The GEL-NYC 2.0 features an updated midsole formation with FF BLAST™ PLUS cushioning, creating a lighter and more comfortable feel compared to the original GEL-NYC.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the trainers are not waterproof. The mesh upper is breathable but will allow water to pass through. They are designed for dry conditions.
What kind of socks are best to wear with these?
For optimal comfort and to aid in the break-in process, wearing athletic or moisture-wicking socks is recommended. Avoid overly thick socks, which could make the fit too tight.
Troubleshooting
Slightly tight fit
Wear the shoes with athletic socks for a few hours to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is appropriate or if an insole adjustment is needed.
Creasing on leather overlays
Minor creasing is normal with leather. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Use shoe trees for storage to help maintain shape.
Reduced cushioning over time
While the FF BLAST™ PLUS and GEL™ technologies are durable, cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. For prolonged comfort, consider replacing the shoes after significant wear.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult male footwear sizing. They are compatible with casual and athletic apparel.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris from the mesh and leather areas. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Gently scrub with a brush and water. Ensure all soap residue is removed.
