FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the GEL-NYC RGD trainers?

These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear, offering comfort and style inspired by retro running shoes from the early 2000s.

Are these trainers suitable for running or intense sports?

While they are inspired by running shoes, the GEL-NYC RGD trainers are best suited for casual activities and daily comfort, not for high-performance running or sports.

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

Clean them gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals. Allow them to air dry completely.

What materials are the trainers made from?

The trainers feature a synthetic leather upper combined with mesh underlays for breathability, and a synthetic sole with a rubber outsole for grip.

What does 'RGD' in the product name signify?

The 'RGD' designation often refers to specific design iterations or colorways within the GEL-NYC series, in this case, highlighting the retro design and color accents.

How does the GEL cushioning work?

The GEL inserts are strategically placed within the midsole to absorb shock effectively, providing a cushioned and comfortable feel with every step.

What is the warranty period for these trainers?

Please refer to the retailer's or ASICS' official warranty policy for specific details on the warranty period and coverage.

Troubleshooting

Trainer feels too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring an even distribution of pressure. If the issue persists, consider trying a half-size larger or exploring the wide fit options if available.

Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time

While the GEL cushioning is designed for longevity, regular use will naturally lessen its impact absorption. Ensure you are not using them for activities beyond their intended casual wear purpose.

Squeaking noise during walking

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and midsole, or moisture. Try removing the insole, ensuring it's dry, and re-inserting it. If the noise persists, it may be an internal manufacturing anomaly.
