FAQs

Are the ASICS Gel-NYC suitable for running marathons?

The ASICS Gel-NYC is designed primarily for style and everyday comfort, not for high-performance activities like marathon running. For marathon training, ASICS recommends specific running shoe models engineered for that purpose.

How do I clean the 'Cream Oyster Grey' colorway?

Gently wipe the exterior with a slightly damp cloth. For more persistent dirt, use a mild soap diluted in water and a soft brush, then rinse with a clean damp cloth. Always air dry.

What is the main advantage of the protective toe design?

The protective toe design helps to reduce scuffs and minor impacts, which can help maintain the shoe's appearance and durability during daily wear in urban environments.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

These sneakers are not waterproof. While they can handle light splashes, prolonged exposure to heavy rain may affect the materials and comfort. It's best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions.

What kind of socks are recommended?

For maximum comfort and moisture management, it is recommended to wear breathable athletic socks made of materials like polyester blends or merino wool.

Where can I find other sizes or colors?

The ASICS Gel-NYC series is available in various sizes and colorways. Please check the product listings for available options.

Troubleshooting

Slight stiffness on first wear

The shoe may feel stiff initially due to new materials. Wear them for short periods indoors to break them in gradually. The materials will soften with use.

Foot fatigue after prolonged wear

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Consider using insoles designed for extra cushioning if needed. If fatigue persists, the shoe may not be suitable for your specific activity level or foot type.

Scuffs or marks on the toe area

Use a soft cloth and a mild cleaning solution to gently remove marks. The protective toe design aims to reduce the severity of scuffs, but deep scratches may be permanent.
