FAQs
What is the primary purpose of the ASICS Gel-NYC trainers?
The ASICS Gel-NYC trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle wear, offering a blend of modern style, comfort, and elements inspired by classic ASICS designs. They are suitable for daily use, walking, and light training.
How does the GEL™ Technology benefit the wearer?
The GEL™ Technology is ASICS' signature cushioning system, designed to provide excellent shock absorption during impact and offer a soft feel underfoot, enhancing overall comfort during wear.
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
No, the Gel-NYC trainers are designed for lifestyle and casual use. They are not specialized for high-performance running and would not provide the necessary support or features for marathon running.
How do I find the right size?
It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the ASICS sizing chart, paying close attention to the UK sizing. Trying them on in person or checking customer reviews for fit feedback can also be helpful.
What materials are used in the upper of the Gel-NYC?
The upper is constructed with a combination of breathable mesh for ventilation and suede overlays for added structure, durability, and a premium aesthetic.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash or tumble dry these trainers, as it can damage the materials and the cushioning technology. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.
What is the difference between the Gel-NYC and other ASICS running shoes?
The Gel-NYC draws heavily on past ASICS archive designs for its aesthetic and focuses on versatile comfort for lifestyle use. Traditional ASICS running shoes are engineered with specific technologies tailored for performance, support, and cushioning during running activities.
Troubleshooting
Uncomfortable fit or pressure points
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try adjusting the lacing system to distribute pressure more evenly. Consider using different socks or adding aftermarket insoles if needed.
Squeaking sound during walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction within the shoe. Try lightly dusting the inside of the shoe with talcum powder or baking soda, or check if the insole is seated correctly.
Reduced cushioning over time
The GEL™ technology is designed for durability, but cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities beyond their intended scope.
