FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

The ASICS Gel-NYC 2.0 feature GEL cushioning for shock absorption, making them comfortable for urban running and daily wear. For very long-distance or competitive running, dedicated performance running shoes might offer more specialized support.

How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner or eraser is recommended. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first and allow to air dry.

What is the main difference between the Gel-NYC and Gel-NYC 2.0?

The Gel-NYC 2.0 is a refreshed version of the original silhouette, typically featuring updated materials or minor design refinements while retaining the core GEL cushioning and aesthetic.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the materials offer some protection, the trainers are not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain. If they get wet, allow them to air dry naturally.

What kind of socks are best with these trainers?

Standard athletic or casual socks are suitable. For added comfort during runs, consider moisture-wicking performance socks.

How true to size are the ASICS Gel-NYC 2.0?

ASICS generally offers consistent sizing. However, individual fit preferences vary. If possible, trying them on or consulting a size guide is recommended for the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Laces becoming untied frequently

Try a double knot for a more secure tie, or consider replacing laces with a textured or waxed pair that offers better grip.

Initial stiffness in the upper

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather and suede to break in and mold to your feet.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

While GEL cushioning is durable, its effectiveness can diminish with prolonged, intense use. For optimal comfort, consider replacing the shoes after significant wear.

Suede appearing matted or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult specific suede cleaning guides or products.
