Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup & First Use
Your ASICS Gel-NYC Trainers arrive ready to wear. Simply adjust the laces to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. Ensure your heel is securely seated in the heel counter and your toes have enough room to wiggle without touching the front of the shoe.
Compatibility
The ASICS Gel-NYC's hybrid design makes them incredibly versatile. They pair well with a wide range of outfits, from athletic shorts and joggers to denim and casual trousers. Their black suede finish offers a sophisticated touch that can elevate casual ensembles. They are suitable for various urban and casual environments.
Care & Maintenance
Given the suede material of your ASICS Gel-NYC Trainers, proper care is essential to maintain their appearance and longevity.
- Initial Protection: Consider applying a high-quality suede protector spray before first wear. This helps repel water and stains.
- Cleaning:
- For surface dirt, use a dedicated suede brush to gently brush away debris in one direction.
- For stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be used.
- Avoid using water directly on suede as it can leave marks. If they get wet, blot gently with a clean cloth and let them air dry away from direct heat.
- For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede cleaner following the product instructions.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources like radiators, as these can damage the material and adhesives.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry your suede trainers.
