Full details

The ASICS Gel-NYC 2.0 trainers are designed for adult males seeking a blend of heritage running aesthetics and modern performance. Their key benefit lies in a lighter, more comfortable feel due to advanced midsole cushioning. A potential caveat is their specific design focus, which may not suit all athletic needs beyond general training and lifestyle wear. These trainers feature a breathable mesh upper, supportive leather overlays, and innovative cushioning technologies.

FAQs

Are the ASICS Gel-NYC 2.0 suitable for long-distance running?

While they offer good cushioning and support for shorter runs and training, they are primarily designed as a hybrid trainer for versatility. For dedicated long-distance marathon training, a more specialized running shoe might be recommended.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the ASICS sizing guide for accurate measurements. The UK 7 listed is specific to this product variant. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the provided size chart.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

The mesh upper offers some breathability but is not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, they are not ideal for heavy rain or wet conditions. Ensure they are thoroughly dried if they get wet.

What is the main difference between Gel-NYC and Gel-NYC 2.0?

The Gel-NYC 2.0 version aims for a lighter and more comfortable feel by enhancing the midsole cushioning with FF BLAST™ PLUS, improving upon the previous iteration.

Is the grey colourway easy to keep clean?

The grey colour is generally practical for hiding minor scuffs. Regular spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap will help maintain their appearance.

What type of socks are best to wear with these trainers?

Standard athletic socks or performance running socks are recommended for comfort and moisture-wicking. For a snugger fit, you might opt for thinner socks, or slightly thicker ones during the break-in period.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise during walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between internal components. Try wearing them for a few more sessions to see if it resolves. If persistent, check for debris in the sole grooves.

Slightly tight fit

Given the materials, they may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase if the fit is snug.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

The FF BLAST™ PLUS cushioning is designed for durability, but its responsiveness may subtly decrease with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not over-saturated and are allowed to dry naturally after use in wet conditions.
