FAQs
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, the suede upper is naturally porous. We recommend applying a high-quality water-repellent spray to protect against light moisture.
Can I wash these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can permanently damage the suede and the integrity of the shoe's construction. Always clean by hand using appropriate tools.
Are they true to size?
The Gel-NYC 2.0 generally follows standard sizing, but if you have wider feet, you may want to consider a half-size up if your typical size feels restrictive.
Can I use these for running?
These are designed as lifestyle trainers rather than performance running shoes. While they offer good support, they lack the specific technical components needed for long-distance running.
How do I remove salt stains from winter use?
Gently dab the area with a cloth dampened with a very mild mixture of water and white vinegar, then allow to air dry away from heat sources.
Troubleshooting
Visible surface dust or dry dirt on the suede
Gently use a soft-bristled suede brush in one direction to lift dirt away from the fibers.
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Ensure the laces are tensioned correctly and consider utilizing the eyelets for a more secure 'heel lock' lacing method.
Material looks flattened or worn
Use a suede brush or a specialized suede eraser to lightly 'revive' the nap of the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Asics Gel-NYC 2.0 trainers maintain their appearance and structure, keep the following in mind:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them for short intervals initially to allow the materials to contour to your feet.
- Suede Maintenance: Use a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dust. Avoid liquid cleaning agents that are not specifically formulated for suede, as these can cause discolouration.
- Moisture Protection: Apply a protective suede spray to repel light rain and prevent stains. Avoid wearing these in heavy downpours.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the colours from fading and the materials from becoming brittle over time.
