FAQs
Are the ASICS GEL-NYC 2.0 suitable for running marathons?
While the GEL-NYC 2.0 features cushioning and support, they are primarily designed for lighter activities and everyday comfort. For marathon running, ASICS offers specialized marathon shoes with advanced features for long-distance performance and impact protection.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
Refer to the ASICS sizing guide available on their official website or consult the sizing chart provided by the retailer. Measure your foot length from heel to toe and compare it with the chart.
Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?
The mesh upper offers some breathability but is not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, they are not designed for heavy rain or wet environments. The rubber outsole provides grip on wet surfaces, but the materials may absorb water.
What is the main difference between the GEL-NYC and GEL-NYC 2.0?
The GEL-NYC 2.0 focuses on creating a lighter and more comfortable feel compared to the first version, mainly through an updated midsole formation incorporating enhanced TRUSSTIC™ support units, GEL™ technology inserts, and FF BLAST™ PLUS cushioning.
Are these shoes vegan?
The product description does not specify vegan materials. The upper includes leather overlays, indicating they are not vegan.
How durable is the rubber outsole?
The rubber outsole is designed for durability and reliable traction for everyday use and light athletic activities. Its lifespan will depend on the frequency and intensity of use.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring an even distribution of pressure. If still tight, consider if the size is appropriate or if the break-in period is needed.
Squeaking noise during walking
This can sometimes occur due to moisture between layers or the sole. Ensure the shoes are dry. If the noise persists, try a small amount of talcum powder under the insole.
Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time
Cushioning materials naturally degrade with extensive use. For optimal performance, consider replacing the shoes after prolonged wear, typically 300-500 miles of running or significant daily use.
Leather overlays showing wear
Clean gently with a damp cloth and allow to air dry. For minor scuffs, consider using a leather conditioner specifically designed for athletic footwear.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently remove dirt and dust from the mesh and leather surfaces. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Midsole and Outsole: Wipe down the midsole and outsole with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
