FAQs
Is the ASICS GEL-NYC a running shoe?
While it features performance technology like the GEL-CUMULUS 16 system, it is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer for everyday wear rather than intensive sports.
Are these shoes true to size?
The ASICS GEL-NYC generally fits true to size for most adults, though you may prefer a half-size larger if you intend to wear thick performance socks.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the structural integrity of the leather and mesh materials. Hand cleaning is recommended.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The silhouette is standard width, but the mesh components offer a degree of flexibility that can accommodate various foot shapes comfortably.
How do I maintain the white colour?
Regularly wipe away surface dirt and use a specialized sneaker protector spray to create a barrier against everyday stains.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the leather overlays
This is normal for leather footwear; use shoe trees when not wearing to maintain the shape and minimize deep wrinkles.
Difficulty cleaning the mesh panels
Use a specialized sneaker foam cleaner and a soft brush, working in small circular motions, then dab dry with a microfiber cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Proper care for your ASICS GEL-NYC will extend the life of the materials significantly. Given the white and blue colourway, it is recommended to apply a water and stain repellent spray before the first use. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh and a damp, soft cloth to wipe down the leather sections. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high temperatures can compromise the glue and material integrity. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or discolouring.
