FAQs

Are the ASICS Gel-NYC suitable for running?

The ASICS Gel-NYC trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and offer comfort for walking and daily activities. For serious running, ASICS recommends specific running shoe models engineered for performance and impact absorption during runs.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the ASICS sizing chart available on their official website or product pages. Generally, measure your foot length from heel to toe and compare it with the chart. For this specific model, the UK 12 is provided.

Can these trainers be machine washed?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesive, and structure of the shoe. Hand wash using a damp cloth and mild soap as per the care instructions.

What is the main benefit of the GEL technology?

The GEL technology embedded in the midsole provides excellent shock absorption, reducing impact on your feet and joints during wear. This enhances overall comfort, especially during prolonged periods of standing or walking.

How do the overlays contribute to the shoe's design?

The silver, grey, and black overlays not only add a stylish visual element that complements the ivory mesh upper but also provide structural support to key areas of the shoe, contributing to a secure fit.

Are there other color options available for the Gel-NYC series?

Yes, the Gel-NYC series is available in various colorways. This guide specifically details the Ivory/Clay Grey variant. Please check with retailers for other available color combinations.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or narrow

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring even pressure distribution. If the issue persists, consider trying a half-size up or a different model designed for wider feet.

Soles squeak during walking

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers. Try airing the shoes out thoroughly. If the noise is persistent and bothersome, it might be an internal manufacturing anomaly.

Traction feels insufficient on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides good grip, but caution is always advised on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean, as debris can affect traction.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently clean the mesh and overlay materials. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking the shoes.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Wipe down the foam midsole and rubber outsole with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use mild soap and water, then rinse with a clean, damp cloth.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
