FAQs

What does 'SSHS' in the product name stand for?

SSHS typically refers to the specific collaboration or edition of the shoe, in this case, indicating the HAL STUDIOS collaboration ('Signature Series').

Are these sneakers suitable for running?

The GEL-NYC 2.0 SSHS are primarily lifestyle trainers designed for comfort and style. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact running activities.

How do I determine my UK shoe size?

Refer to Asics' official sizing chart on their website. Generally, UK sizing is distinct from US or EU sizing. Measure your foot length and compare it with the chart provided.

What is the inspiration behind the design?

The design is a collaboration with HAL STUDIOS, inspired by the industrial elements and 'Architecture of Everyday Life' found in New York City.

Can these sneakers be worn by women?

While this specific variant lists 'Male' gender, the GEL-NYC series often features unisex appeal. Check the product details for specific unisex sizing if available, or consider the general fit based on measurements.

How is the GEL-NYC 2.0 different from the original GEL-NYC?

The '2.0' designation often signifies updates in materials, cushioning, or design elements. The SSHS variant specifically features a unique collaborative design by HAL STUDIOS.

What is the warranty period for Asics footwear?

Asics typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Specific terms and duration can vary by region and retailer; it is best to check the official Asics website or your purchase receipt for details.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from shoes

This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or ensure laces are not tied too tightly.

Reduced cushioning over time

The GEL™ technology is designed for longevity, but intense use can degrade cushioning. Ensure you are using them for their intended purpose (lifestyle/light activity) and consider rotating with other footwear.

Discoloration of materials

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can fade colors. Clean spills immediately according to care instructions.
