FAQs
What does the GEL-NYC™ design draw inspiration from?
The GEL-NYC™ design is inspired by the GEL-NIMBUS 3 from the early 2000s for its upper, incorporates elements from the GEL-MC PLUS sneaker, and uses the tooling system from the GEL-CUMULUS 16.
Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?
The GEL-NYC™ trainers are designed for versatility and comfort in daily wear and light training. For marathon running, ASICS recommends specialized running shoe models engineered for high-mileage performance and support.
How do I clean the mesh and suede parts of the trainers?
Use a soft brush or dry cloth for general cleaning. For stains on suede, a suede eraser or specialized cleaner is recommended. Avoid soaking the shoes.
What is the primary benefit of the GEL™ Technology in these shoes?
The GEL™ Technology provides excellent shock absorption, cushioning the impact of each step to enhance comfort during wear.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather conditions?
While the rubber outsole offers some grip, the mesh upper is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Avoid heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wetness.
What is the main difference between the GEL-NYC and other ASICS models?
The GEL-NYC stands out by blending the aesthetics and technologies of several popular ASICS archive models into a single, modern, and versatile trainer.
Is this shoe suitable for wide feet?
The description does not specify width options. It is recommended to check product availability for wide-fit versions or consult a retailer for sizing advice based on your foot width.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Consider wearing them with thinner socks or breaking them in with short periods of wear initially. If the issue persists, they may be the wrong size.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces.
The rubber outsole provides good traction, but performance on extremely wet surfaces can be limited. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. Exercise caution on very wet or slippery conditions.
Suede material looks dull or dirty.
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to restore its texture. For stains, use a suede eraser or a specific suede cleaner according to product instructions. Avoid excessive moisture.
Laces are difficult to keep tied.
Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot. If the laces are slippery, consider replacing them with a different material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: The GEL-NYC trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. It is recommended to try them on with the type of socks you typically wear.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general adult use. They are suitable for walking, casual wear, and light fitness activities. They are not intended for specialized high-impact sports.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the mesh and suede components, use a soft brush or a dry cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains on suede, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Wipe down the rubber outsole and midsole with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain their shape and material integrity.
