FAQs

What is the primary material of the ASICS Gel-NYC trainers?

The trainers feature an upper constructed with a combination of suede overlays and a mesh base.

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

While they feature GEL technology for cushioning, they are primarily designed for casual wear and daily activities, not for professional or high-intensity athletic training.

How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Gently brush off dry dirt with a suede brush. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and a cloth, then allow to air dry. Avoid soaking the shoes.

What inspired the design of the Gel-NYC?

The design is inspired by running sneakers from the early 2000s, giving them a retro aesthetic.

What does the GEL technology do?

The GEL technology is incorporated in the forefoot and rear of the shoe to provide enhanced shock absorption and cushioning for comfort.

Can I wear these with formal attire?

These trainers have a casual, retro design and are best suited for casual outfits rather than formal wear.

What are the main color components of the Ivory Mid Gray model?

This model typically features a white mesh base with mid-grey suede overlays and white and light grey accents.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, apply a small amount of specialized suede cleaner with a cloth, blot gently, and allow to air dry. Avoid using water excessively.

Shoe feels too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the shoe is new, wear it around the house for short periods to allow the materials to conform to your foot shape. Laces can be adjusted for a more relaxed fit.

Traction seems poor on wet surfaces

The outsole provides standard traction. Be cautious when walking on very wet or slippery surfaces, as the grip may be reduced. Ensure the outsole is free from debris.

Setup: These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: Designed for adult males, these trainers are suitable for casual wear and everyday use. They pair well with a variety of casual outfits.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Due to the suede and mesh construction, avoid machine washing. Spot clean with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn stains on suede, use a specialized suede cleaner. Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag to protect the materials.
  • Protection: Consider using a suede protector spray to help repel water and stains, especially for the grey suede overlays.
