The ASICS GEL-NYC Trainer is designed for adults who value a unique fusion of nostalgic aesthetics and contemporary comfort. Its standout feature is the superior underfoot cushioning, delivered by lightweight foams and ASICS' signature GEL technology, ensuring exceptional comfort for daily wear.

Care: Given that this variant features suede material, proper care is essential to maintain its appearance and prolong its lifespan.
Pre-Treatment: Before first wear, consider applying a high-quality suede protector spray to help repel water and stains.
Regular Cleaning: Use a soft brush (a dedicated suede brush is recommended) to gently brush off dirt and dust after each wear. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
Spot Cleaning: For minor stains, use a suede eraser or a slightly damp clean cloth. Blot the stain gently; do not rub vigorously.
Deep Cleaning: For tougher stains, specialized suede cleaning solutions can be used, following the product's instructions carefully. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
Drying: If the trainers get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees or crumpled paper inside to help them retain their shape.
Avoid Water: Suede is not water-resistant. Avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent water damage and discoloration.
