FAQs

What does GEL™ technology do?

GEL™ technology is a cushioning system developed by ASICS, strategically placed in the midsole to absorb shock during impact. In the Gel-NYC, it works with lightweight foams to provide advanced underfoot comfort and reduce strain on your feet.

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?

The Asics Gel-NYC is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual sneaker. While it features performance-inspired cushioning for comfort, it is not engineered for high-performance running or intense athletic sports. Its strength lies in everyday comfort and style.

How should I clean my Asics Gel-NYC sneakers?

Gently brush off loose dirt. For the textile and synthetic leather upper, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth to wipe clean. Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth. Always air dry at room temperature and avoid machine washing or direct heat.

What materials are used in the upper?

The upper of the Asics Gel-NYC is constructed from a combination of Textile & Synthetic Leather, providing a balance of breathability, support, and durability.

Are the Gel-NYC true to size?

Generally, Asics shoes tend to be consistent, but fit can vary slightly between models and individuals. For the most accurate fit, it's recommended to consult the official Asics sizing chart or try them on if possible. This specific variant is UK 6.

What is the inspiration behind the Gel-NYC's design?

The Gel-NYC draws inspiration from two early 2000s ASICS models: the GEL-NIMBUS 3 and design elements from the GEL-MC PLUS V. The tooling underfoot comes from the GEL-CUMULUS 16, creating a blend of nostalgic aesthetics and modern performance comfort.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you have the correct size. While the specific pair is UK 6, fit can vary. Allow for a break-in period, as synthetic leather and textiles can mold to your foot over time. Try adjusting the lacing technique for a more customized fit.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes occur if moisture gets between the insole and the shoe's footbed. Try removing the insole, cleaning both surfaces, ensuring they are completely dry, and then reinserting. If the squeak persists, it might be due to the outsole rubbing on specific surfaces or a manufacturing nuance; Info needed: advanced solutions for sole squeaks.

Stains on the textile or synthetic leather upper.

For fresh stains, gently dab with a clean, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a dedicated sneaker cleaner suitable for mixed materials, following the product's instructions carefully. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing.

Sole appears worn out quickly.

The rubber outsole is designed for durability in lifestyle use. Excessive wear might indicate heavy use on abrasive surfaces or an unusual gait. Rotate your sneakers with other footwear to extend their lifespan.

Care Instructions

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your Gel-NYC sneakers:

  1. Regular Cleaning:
  • Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush (e.g., old toothbrush).
  • For the Textile & Synthetic Leather Upper, use a mild soap solution (like dish soap diluted in water) and a soft cloth or sponge. Wipe gently, being careful not to oversaturate the material.
  • Wipe down the Rubber Outsole with a damp cloth to remove grime.
  1. Drying:
  • Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature.
  • Avoid direct heat (like radiators or direct sunlight), as this can damage materials.
  • Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  1. Stain Removal:
  • Address stains promptly. For tougher stains, a specialized sneaker cleaner designed for mixed materials may be used, following the product's instructions.
  1. Storage:
  • Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • If storing for extended periods, consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
  1. Avoid Machine Washing: Never put your Asics Gel-NYC sneakers in a washing machine or dryer, as this can severely damage the materials, cushioning, and adhesives.
