FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the GEL™ Technology in these trainers?

The GEL™ Technology is ASICS' signature cushioning system designed to absorb shock efficiently, providing comfort and reducing stress on your joints during impact.

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The Gel-NYC trainers are designed for versatile use, including casual wear and light training. For marathon running, specialized running shoes offering more advanced support and cushioning might be more appropriate.

How do the design inspirations (GEL-NIMBUS 3, GEL-MC PLUS) benefit the shoe?

These inspirations combine classic ASICS aesthetics with modern technology, offering a unique, versatile style that nods to heritage while incorporating contemporary comfort and construction.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole offers some traction, the suede overlays are not water-resistant. It is recommended to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials.

What is the main difference between this and other ASICS trainers?

The Gel-NYC is characterized by its fusion of design elements from different iconic ASICS models and the specific GEL-CUMULUS 16 tooling, offering a distinct aesthetic and a blend of comfort technologies.

How should I care for the suede overlays?

Suede requires gentle care. Use a soft brush for dirt removal and a dedicated suede cleaner for stains. Protect them from moisture and heavy wear.

Troubleshooting

Slight stiffness on first wear

This is normal for new shoes, especially with leather and suede. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your feet.

Traction seems reduced

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean from dirt, mud, or debris. Wipe it with a damp cloth if necessary.

Discoloration on suede parts

Use a specialized suede cleaner and a suede brush to gently restore the color and texture. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for unisex adult use and are compatible with a wide range of casual attire. They are suitable for various everyday environments.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: For the mesh and suede components, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  2. Suede Care: Use a dedicated suede cleaner and brush to maintain the texture and appearance of the suede overlays.
  3. Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to maintain traction.
  4. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and moisture.
