FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the GEL-NYC 2.0 features advanced cushioning technology, it is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual walking trainer rather than a technical performance running shoe.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft cloth dampened with water and a tiny amount of mild detergent, dabbing the surface rather than scrubbing to avoid pulling the fibers.
Does the shoe provide good arch support?
Yes, the sculpted midsole and internal support structure offer stable, comfortable arch support for most foot types during daily use.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
The upper materials are not waterproof; the mesh construction is breathable, meaning water can penetrate through to the foot during heavy rain.
What is the sizing fit like?
The GEL-NYC 2.0 generally fits true to size, but the multi-material layering creates a structured, secure feel around the midfoot.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede overlays
Use a specialized suede eraser or a dry, soft-bristled brush to gently buff the surface in a single direction.
Midsole appearing scuffed
Wipe the sculpted rubber areas with a soft cloth and a mixture of water and mild detergent.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Excellent durability from the multi-material construction
- Lightweight feel due to modern midsole engineering
Cons
- Suede overlays require specific cleaning techniques to avoid damage

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers feature suede and mesh elements, proper care is essential to maintain their aesthetic. To keep them clean, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry dirt from the suede and mesh areas. For stubborn marks on synthetic parts, a damp cloth with mild soap is recommended. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the adhesives and compromise the material integrity. Ensure the shoes are kept away from direct heat sources when drying. For fit, ensure your specific UK size is selected, as the structured overlay design provides a precise fit that does not stretch significantly over time.
