FAQs

Are the ASICS GEL-NYC trainers suitable for running?

The GEL-NYC trainers are designed with inspiration from running shoe heritage but are best suited for casual wear, walking, and light gym activities. For dedicated running, ASICS offers specialized running shoe models.

What is the main benefit of the GEL™ Technology in these trainers?

The GEL™ Technology provides excellent shock absorption, reducing impact on your feet and joints, which contributes to overall comfort during wear.

How do I determine the correct UK size?

Refer to the ASICS official sizing guide. It typically provides measurements in centimeters or inches that correspond to UK, US, and EU sizing. Measuring your foot length is recommended for accuracy.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash ASICS trainers as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning technology. Hand cleaning is the preferred method.

What materials are the ASICS GEL-NYC trainers made of?

The trainers typically feature a mesh upper with leather overlays and a rubber outsole. The specific composition may vary slightly by colorway.

How do the GEL-NYC trainers compare to other ASICS models?

The GEL-NYC draws design cues from heritage models like GEL-NIMBUS 3 and GEL-MC PLUS, while utilizing the tooling from the GEL-CUMULUS 16. This blend offers a unique aesthetic and comfort profile compared to other ASICS lines.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The GEL-NYC trainers are not designed to be waterproof. The mesh upper provides breathability but will not repel water effectively. They are best suited for dry conditions.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels off

Refer to the ASICS sizing chart and consider trying them on with the type of socks you typically wear. Some users find ASICS trainers run slightly small, so a half-size up might be beneficial for some.

Discomfort after first wear

New shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit.

Marks or scuffs on leather overlays

Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper marks, a leather cleaner specifically designed for footwear can be used sparingly.

Mesh appears dirty

Gently clean the mesh with a soft brush and a mild soap and water solution. Dab gently with a clean, damp cloth to rinse, and allow to air dry.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently clean the mesh and leather components. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
