ASICS Gel-NYC - Grey - UK 9

While inspired by running shoe aesthetics and featuring GEL technology, the Gel-NYC trainers are primarily designed as a lifestyle shoe for everyday comfort and casual wear, not for rigorous athletic running.

Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth for light dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner. Always air dry away from direct heat.

GEL technology is ASICS' proprietary cushioning system that absorbs shock during impact, providing a softer landing and smoother transition. In the Gel-NYC, it enhances underfoot comfort for daily wear.

ASICS Gel-NYC trainers generally fit true to size. We recommend trying them on to ensure the best fit, especially if you are between sizes. Refer to the UK sizing for this specific model.

The main difference is the material used for the upper. Leather variants offer a smoother finish and different care requirements, while suede variants have a softer, napped texture and also require specific suede cleaning products.

The leather upper provides some protection, but these trainers are not waterproof. For wet conditions, consider using a water-repellent spray specifically designed for leather, and always allow them to air dry fully if they get wet.

Ensure you have the correct size. If new, allow for a brief break-in period. Wear appropriate socks and adjust lacing for optimal comfort.

Clean the leather thoroughly with a damp cloth, then apply a suitable leather conditioner to restore its luster and suppleness. Follow product instructions.

For light scuffs, a soft cloth and a small amount of leather cleaner can often buff them out. For deeper marks, consider a leather repair kit or professional cleaning.
