FAQs
What is the main benefit of the GEL cushioning?
The GEL cushioning in the midsole is designed to absorb shock effectively, providing a softer landing and reducing impact on your joints during movement.
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The Asics Gel-NYC trainers are best suited for everyday wear and light workouts. For marathon running, specialized high-performance running shoes are recommended.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made of lightweight synthetic material, chosen for its durability, flexibility, and breathability.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure without slipping.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and the GEL cushioning. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.
What does the "Storm Cloud Pure Silver" colourway mean?
This refers to the primary deep blue colour ('Storm Cloud') combined with secondary silver accents ('Pure Silver'), creating a sporty and modern look.
Troubleshooting
Unusual squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers. Try airing the shoes out thoroughly or inserting a talc-free powder. If persistent, it may indicate a structural issue.
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure the laces are tied securely using a standard double knot. Consider replacing the laces if they are worn or slippery.
Discomfort after initial wear
New shoes may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the fit is correct for your foot size and width.
