FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The ASICS Gel NYC Trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer good cushioning for everyday comfort, they are not specialized for the demands of marathon running, which typically requires shoes with more advanced performance features and specific support.
How do I know if I have the right size?
It's recommended to try them on if possible. Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. Your heel should feel secure without excessive slipping.
Can I wear these with athletic socks?
Yes, you can wear athletic socks with these trainers. The choice of sock thickness might affect the overall fit and comfort, so experiment to find what works best for you.
How long is the lifespan of the GEL cushioning?
The GEL cushioning is designed to provide durable shock absorption. With regular care and moderate use, the cushioning properties should last for the typical lifespan of the shoe, which can be several hundred miles or a couple of years of casual wear.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the ASICS Gel NYC Trainers are not waterproof. They are made from materials that offer breathability but will not protect your feet from significant water exposure. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.
What is the main difference between these and dedicated running shoes?
Dedicated running shoes are engineered with specific technologies for performance, such as enhanced energy return, targeted support for running gaits, and lighter weight. The Gel NYC trainers focus more on versatile comfort and style for everyday wear.
Can these trainers be returned if they don't fit?
Return policies vary by retailer. Please check the specific return policy of the vendor from whom you purchased the shoes.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them around the house for short periods to allow them to break in. Consider using thicker or thinner socks depending on your needs.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The rubber soles are designed for general traction. If experiencing slipperiness on very smooth or wet surfaces, exercise caution. For improved grip on specific terrains, consider aftermarket insoles or specialized footwear.
Discoloration or scuff marks
For minor scuffs, try a specialized shoe cleaner or a magic eraser. For general cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Protect the shoes from excessive dirt and moisture when possible.
