FAQs

What is the primary inspiration for the GEL-NYC RGD trainers?

The design is inspired by heritage and modern performance running styles from the early 2000s, referencing models like the GEL-NIMBUS 3 and GEL-MC PLUS V for the upper, and the GEL-CUMULUS 16 for the tooling.

Are these trainers suitable for professional running?

While they offer excellent comfort and cushioning, they are primarily designed for casual wear and light training rather than specialized, high-performance running.

What materials are used in the upper construction?

The upper is constructed from a combination of synthetic leather and mesh underlays.

How do I clean my ASICS GEL-NYC RGD trainers?

Clean the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. For the sole, use a soft brush or damp cloth. Always air dry away from direct heat.

What is the main benefit of the GEL technology in the midsole?

The GEL inserts within the foam midsole provide signature cushioning and superior shock absorption for advanced underfoot comfort.

Do these trainers offer good grip?

Yes, they feature a rubber sole designed to provide reliable grip on various surfaces.

What foot size are these trainers intended for?

These trainers are designed for adult male foot sizes.

Troubleshooting

Slightly tight fit on first wear

Wear the trainers with medium-thickness socks for a few hours. Leather and synthetic materials often offer some give over time.

Dirt accumulation on mesh panels

Use a soft brush and a mild soap solution with water. Gently scrub the affected areas and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry.

Reduced cushioning over time

Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn beyond their intended use. For most users, the GEL and foam cushioning will provide lasting comfort for casual wear.
