FAQs
Are the Asics GEL-NYC 2.0 true to size?
Most users find that they fit true to size, but if you prefer a roomier fit for thick socks, consider sizing up by a half size.
Can I use these for running?
While they feature performance technology, the GEL-NYC 2.0 is categorized as a lifestyle trainer rather than a dedicated long-distance running shoe.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Use a mixture of mild soap and lukewarm water with a soft brush, dabbing gently rather than scrubbing to avoid fraying the mesh.
Is the insole removable?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if needed.
What is the inspiration behind this shoe?
The design is a reimagining of the classic Asics GEL-1050, which was originally released in the year 2000.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede sections
Use a dry, soft-bristle brush to gently lift dirt; avoid using water on suede as it can cause staining.
Creasing in the toe box
Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the shape and reduce persistent creases in leather components.
Outsole losing traction
Check for debris wedged in the grooves of the rubber outsole and remove with a blunt tool; wipe with a damp cloth if slippery.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Asics GEL-NYC 2.0 trainers, proper maintenance is essential. Because the shoe utilizes a mix of mesh, leather, and suede, avoid machine washing, which can damage these sensitive materials. Instead, wipe the synthetic and leather overlays with a soft, damp cloth and use a specialist suede brush to remove dirt from those panels. Ensure the shoes are stored in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent material cracking or adhesive degradation. If your feet require specific orthotics, the internal footbed is typically removable to accommodate custom insoles.
