Full details

FAQs

What makes the GEL-NYC different from other Asics models?

The GEL-NYC stands out by blending heritage running shoe design elements with modern performance technology, creating a distinct aesthetic that appeals to both style-conscious individuals and sneaker enthusiasts.

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

While inspired by running styles and featuring GEL™ technology for comfort, the GEL-NYC trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle wear and light athletic activities. For marathon running, specialized performance running shoes from Asics would be more appropriate.

How do I determine the right size?

The Asics GEL-NYC Trainers are listed in UK adult sizing. It is recommended to compare your foot measurement to Asics' sizing chart or try them on if possible to ensure the best fit.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

These trainers are not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. It is best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions to protect the materials and maintain comfort.

What is the primary benefit of the GEL™ technology in these shoes?

The GEL™ technology inserts are strategically placed in the midsole to provide enhanced shock absorption, helping to reduce impact on your feet and joints during movement, thus contributing to advanced underfoot comfort.

How should I clean the white and grey colorway?

For the White/Grey colorway, it's best to spot clean gently with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the materials or affect the color. Allow them to air dry completely.

Troubleshooting

Slightly tight fit upon first wear

This is common with new trainers. Wear them for short periods initially, or consider using thicker socks around the house to gently stretch them. The materials are designed to adapt to your foot shape over time.

Discomfort after prolonged wear

Ensure you have the correct size. If the size is correct, check if the lacing is too tight or too loose. Adjusting the lacing can significantly impact comfort. Consider if the shoe is appropriate for the activity; these are best for moderate use, not intense sports.

Reduced cushioning over time

The GEL™ technology and foam midsole are designed for durability, but cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are used for their intended purpose (lifestyle/light training) and avoid excessive wear.
