FAQs

Are the ASICS Gel-NYC Trainers suitable for running?

The ASICS Gel-NYC Trainers are designed primarily for everyday casual wear. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for the demands of high-impact running and may not provide the necessary support or specialized features for running.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not tight, with no excessive pressure points.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials and construction. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap instead.

What is the primary benefit of the GEL technology in these trainers?

The GEL technology is ASICS' signature cushioning system. In the Gel-NYC, it provides excellent shock absorption, reducing impact on your feet and joints during daily activities, thus enhancing comfort.

How should I store my ASICS Gel-NYC Trainers when not in use?

Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape. Avoid storing them in damp or humid conditions.

Are these trainers waterproof?

These trainers are not designed to be waterproof. They offer some resistance to light moisture but are not suitable for wet conditions.

What does 'Graphite Grey Smoke Grey' refer to?

This refers to the colorway of the trainers. 'Graphite Grey' and 'Smoke Grey' are shades of grey used in the design, providing a sophisticated and versatile appearance.

Troubleshooting

Initial discomfort or tightness

The trainers may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure laces are adjusted for a comfortable fit without being too tight.

Slipping heel

Check that the laces are tied correctly and securely. Ensure the correct shoe size has been selected. Some lacing techniques can help secure the heel better; research 'heel lock lacing'.

Squeaking sound

A squeak can sometimes occur from the tongue rubbing against the inner lining or from moisture trapped within the sole. Try inserting a powder (like talcum powder) under the insole or ensuring the shoes are completely dry.

Color transfer from shoe to socks

New shoes, especially dark-colored ones, may transfer some dye initially. This typically subsides after a few wears. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before wearing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup; simply lace them up and wear them.

Compatibility: The ASICS Gel-NYC Trainers are designed for casual, everyday wear. They are compatible with a wide range of casual apparel, including jeans, shorts, and athleisure wear. They are not intended for specialized sports activities that require specific performance footwear.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  2. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning if heavily soiled. Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle in a garment bag.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
