FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The GEL-NYC is designed as a lifestyle and casual trainer; while comfortable, it is not engineered for long-distance running or professional athletic performance.
How do I determine the correct size?
ASICS sizes correspond to standard UK sizing. We recommend checking your foot length against a standard size chart to ensure the correct fit.
Can the insoles be removed?
Yes, the insoles are generally removable, which allows for the use of custom orthotics if required.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The GEL-NYC is not explicitly waterproof; it is best to avoid heavy rain to maintain the integrity of the materials.
How should I store them when not in use?
Store them in a well-ventilated, dry environment away from direct heat sources to preserve the foam and upper materials.
Troubleshooting
Inner lining feeling slightly tight upon first wear
The shoe materials often require a short break-in period; wear them for shorter durations initially to allow the foam to contour to your foot.
Visible surface stains on the upper material
Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a mild soap solution with a microfiber cloth; test on a small, inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS GEL-NYC trainers maintain their appearance and structure, proper maintenance is essential. Always ensure you select the correct UK size for your specific foot measurements as the silhouette is structured. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface debris and a slightly damp cloth with mild soap for localized spots; avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation or color fading. Replace your shoes when the midsole foam shows signs of significant compression or the tread begins to wear smooth.
