FAQs

What is the primary design inspiration for the GEL-NYC?

The GEL-NYC draws inspiration from ASICS' retro running heritage, specifically incorporating design elements from the GEL-NIMBUS 3 and GEL-MC PLUS models, combined with modern aesthetic sensibilities.

Are these trainers suitable for serious running or marathon training?

While they feature GEL technology for cushioning and are inspired by running shoes, the GEL-NYC is primarily designed for casual wear and light athletic activities. For intense training or marathon running, specific performance running shoes are recommended.

How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

For suede, it's best to use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and a specialized suede cleaner for stains. Avoid water saturation. Protecting the suede with a suitable spray can also help prevent stains.

What kind of socks are best to wear with these trainers?

You can wear various types of socks. For everyday comfort, standard athletic or casual socks work well. If you experience any rubbing, try moisture-wicking or slightly thicker socks.

Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash ASICS GEL-NYC trainers, especially those with suede components, as this can damage the materials and affect the shoe's structure and cushioning.

How does the GEL technology in the midsole contribute to comfort?

The GEL technology is strategically placed in the midsole to absorb shock during impact. This provides a softer landing and reduces stress on your feet and joints, enhancing overall comfort during wear.

What does 'Ivory with Forest offsets' mean for the colorway?

This color description indicates that the main color of the trainers is a light, off-white shade ('Ivory'), accented with green details ('Forest offsets').

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the lacing pattern. If consistently uncomfortable, consider trying a different size as fit can vary.

Suede material appears dirty or stained.

Use a dedicated suede cleaner and brush. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

Lack of arch support for prolonged standing.

Consider using aftermarket insoles or orthotics designed for added arch support, ensuring they fit within the shoe.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces.

The rubber outsole provides grip, but caution is advised on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris.
