FAQs
Are ASICS GEL-NYC trainers suitable for serious running or gym workouts?
The ASICS GEL-NYC trainers are primarily designed for casual wear, urban exploration, and daily comfort. While they offer excellent cushioning, they are not engineered for the rigorous demands of performance running or intense gym workouts. For those activities, we recommend ASICS' specialized athletic footwear.
How do I determine the correct size for my GEL-NYC trainers?
We recommend referring to the official ASICS sizing guide, which can usually be found on the product page or ASICS website. It's always best to measure your foot and compare it to the chart. Trying on the trainers, ideally at the end of the day when your feet are slightly swollen, can also help ensure the best fit.
What is 'GEL technology' and how does it benefit me?
GEL technology is a signature ASICS cushioning system that uses a silicone-based material placed in key areas of the midsole. Its primary benefit is absorbing shock during impact, providing a smoother transition and enhanced comfort. This reduces stress on your joints, making long walks or periods of standing more comfortable.
Can I machine wash my ASICS GEL-NYC trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials, adhesives, and structural integrity of the trainers. Please follow the care instructions provided, focusing on spot cleaning and air drying.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The ASICS GEL-NYC trainers are not explicitly designed or marketed as waterproof. The breathable mesh upper, while comfortable, will allow water to penetrate. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or wet conditions to protect your trainers and keep your feet dry.
What kind of socks should I wear with these trainers?
For optimal comfort and to help manage moisture, we recommend wearing moisture-wicking athletic socks made from synthetic blends or merino wool. Cotton socks can absorb sweat and stay damp, potentially leading to discomfort or odor.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel uncomfortable or fatigued after prolonged wear.
Ensure your trainers are the correct size and width. Try adjusting your lacing technique to relieve pressure points, or consider if custom insoles might provide better arch support for your foot type. Allow your feet to rest if you are unaccustomed to long periods of standing or walking.
Shoes feel slippery on certain surfaces.
Regularly inspect and clean the rubber tread to remove embedded dirt or small stones that can reduce grip. While the rubber tread provides good traction, exercise caution on extremely wet, oily, or icy surfaces as these trainers are not designed for extreme conditions.
Unpleasant odor develops inside the trainers.
Remove the insoles after use to allow the shoes to air out completely. Use a shoe deodorizer or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight. Ensure you wear moisture-wicking socks to help manage perspiration and reduce odor buildup.
