FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Gel-NYC Utility trainers are not designed to be waterproof and should be avoided in heavy rain to prevent material damage.
Can I use these for running?
These trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual daily wear. They are not engineered for the high-impact demands of distance running.
How do I determine my size?
ASICS generally follow standard sizing conventions. We recommend using your standard UK adult shoe size as a reference.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are removable, which allows you to insert custom orthotics if you require specific arch support.
Do these shoes run narrow or wide?
The fit is standard, but the construction of the Gel-NYC series generally offers a balanced fit that accommodates most foot widths.
How often should I replace them?
Depending on usage, we recommend checking the outsole tread and cushioning response every 400 to 500 miles of regular use.
Troubleshooting
The shoes feel tight across the midfoot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to be looser at the lower eyelets to allow for more volume in the forefoot area.
Visible dirt accumulation on the grey upper
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution or a mild detergent mix with a soft cloth to gently buff away stains.
Insole sliding or shifting
Remove the insole, ensure the interior of the shoe is clean and dry, and re-insert it firmly, or replace with a custom orthotic if needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS Gel-NYC Utility trainers, it is essential to focus on proper maintenance. Since these are performance-based lifestyle shoes, avoid machine washing, which can compromise the structural integrity of the gel units. Instead, spot clean any dirt or stains using a soft-bristled brush, mild soap, and lukewarm water. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material warping. For the best fit, ensure you are wearing appropriate socks for your activity level, and always re-lace the shoes after putting them on to maintain consistent tension across the bridge of the foot.
