FAQs

What makes the GEL-NYC unique?

The GEL-NYC stands out by blending ASICS's latest technology with popular design elements from their archive, such as inspirations from the GEL-NIMBUS 3 and GEL-MC PLUS, offering a modern aesthetic rooted in heritage.

Are these shoes good for running?

The GEL-NYC trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear, featuring cushioning for comfort. While they can handle light jogging or walking, they are not optimized for high-performance running.

How do I clean the mesh and suede parts?

Use a soft brush for dry dirt. For stains, a specialized sneaker cleaner or a slightly damp cloth is recommended for both mesh and suede. Always allow them to air dry naturally.

What is the primary benefit of the GEL™ technology?

The GEL™ technology in the midsole is designed to provide excellent shock absorption, reducing impact and offering a comfortable, cushioned feel during wear.

What materials are the upper made of?

The upper typically features a combination of breathable mesh for ventilation and suede or leather overlays for structure, texture, and durability.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to the ASICS sizing chart for accurate measurements. It is advisable to try them on if possible, or check customer reviews for insights on fit, as sizing can be subjective.

What kind of grip does the outsole offer?

The rubber outsole is designed to provide reliable traction on a variety of surfaces, ensuring stability and preventing slips during everyday activities.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing pattern. For a tighter fit, ensure laces are pulled evenly. For a looser fit, loosen the laces across the top of the foot. Refer to sizing guides for potential exchange if the size is incorrect.

Squeaking noise from sole

This can sometimes occur due to friction between layers or moisture. Ensure the shoes are completely dry. If the noise persists, try inserting an insole or powdering the inside lightly with talcum powder (ensure it's safe for footwear materials).

Dirt or stains on suede/leather

Use a suede eraser for dry marks. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede or leather cleaner with a soft cloth. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first. Always allow to dry naturally.

Reduced cushioning over time

The GEL™ technology provides long-lasting cushioning, but it may reduce with extensive use. Ensure the midsole is clean, as dirt can sometimes affect perceived cushioning. For significantly diminished comfort, consider replacing the shoes.

Care:

  • Uppers: For mesh and suede/leather sections, use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  • Midsole: Wipe the foam midsole with a damp cloth. Ensure it is dry before storing.
  • Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole with water and a brush to remove any embedded debris.
  • Laces: Remove laces and wash them separately by hand or in a wash bag.
  • Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat or sunlight, which can damage materials.
