FAQs
Are the ASICS GEL-NYC trainers suitable for running?
The GEL-NYC are primarily designed as lifestyle or casual trainers, offering comfort and support for everyday activities. While they incorporate ASICS' GEL technology, they are not specifically engineered for high-performance running like dedicated running shoes.
What materials are used in the ASICS GEL-NYC trainers?
The trainers typically feature a combination of materials in the upper, including leather and nylon, for durability and structure. The midsole incorporates GEL technology for cushioning.
How do I find the correct UK size?
Refer to the ASICS official sizing guide, which provides detailed instructions on how to measure your foot length and find the corresponding UK size. It's also helpful to read user reviews regarding fit.
Can I wash my ASICS GEL-NYC trainers in a washing machine?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash ASICS trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning technology. Hand wash gently using a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
What is the main inspiration behind the GEL-NYC design?
The design of the GEL-NYC trainers is inspired by the aesthetic and construction of iconic ASICS models such as the GEL-NIMBUS 3 and MC-PLUS V, along with elements from the GEL-CUMULUS 16.
Are these trainers available in other colors?
Yes, the ASICS GEL-NYC series is available in various colorways, including grey, white/green, and black/grey, among others, depending on the specific release and retailer.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels slightly off
Consult the ASICS sizing chart and measure your foot accurately. Consider the specific model's fit notes if available. If possible, try them on in-store.
Reduced cushioning over time
The GEL technology provides long-lasting cushioning, but it can degrade with extreme wear. For optimal comfort, consider replacing trainers after significant usage (typically 300-500 miles).
Discoloration on the upper
Avoid exposing the trainers to harsh chemicals or prolonged direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: For leather and nylon uppers, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly.
- Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Use a brush or cloth with water to clean the sole. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.
