FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the GEL technology in these trainers?
The GEL technology provides exceptional shock absorption, offering superior cushioning and a softer feel underfoot, which enhances comfort during wear and reduces impact.
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
While they offer good cushioning for general use and light training, they are not specifically designed for high-performance, long-distance marathon running. For such activities, specialized running shoes with advanced features might be more appropriate.
How do I clean the Sulphur and Black colourway?
Use a damp cloth with mild soap and water for cleaning. Avoid bleach or strong detergents. For stubborn marks, consider a specialized shoe cleaner suitable for trainers.
Can I wear these trainers with orthotic insoles?
Yes, the trainers generally accommodate the use of standard orthotic insoles. You may need to remove the original insole to ensure adequate space and a comfortable fit.
What is the main difference between Gel-NYC and Gel-NYC 2.0?
The Gel-NYC 2.0 typically features updated design elements and potentially refined cushioning or materials compared to the original Gel-NYC, focusing on enhancing comfort and performance.
What UK shoe size is this guide for?
This specific guide details the ASICS Gel-NYC 2.0 SSHS trainers in UK size 4.5.
Are these trainers waterproof?

Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise during walking
This can sometimes be caused by friction between components. Try loosening the laces slightly or ensuring the insoles are properly seated. If the noise persists, it may be internal and could resolve with further wear.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The GEL cushioning may naturally compress with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn. If the cushioning has significantly degraded, it might be time to consider a replacement pair.
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size and that laces are tied appropriately for a snug but not overly tight fit. Wearing appropriate socks can also help prevent rubbing. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter periods of wear.
