FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?
The ASICS GEL-NYC Trainers are designed for everyday comfort and casual wear, incorporating GEL™ technology for cushioning. While comfortable, they are not specifically engineered as high-performance running shoes for competitive events like marathons.
How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?
Refer to the ASICS sizing chart available on their official website or consult the sizing guide provided by the retailer. Generally, measure your foot length from heel to toe and compare it to the chart. Trying them on in-store is the most accurate method.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning technology within the ASICS GEL-NYC trainers.
What is the primary inspiration behind the GEL-NYC design?
The GEL-NYC design is a fusion of ASICS' technological innovations and archival styles, drawing inspiration from models like the GEL-NIMBUS 3 from the early 2000s and incorporating elements of the GEL-MC PLUS sneaker.
How does the GEL™ technology benefit the wearer?
The GEL™ technology is ASICS' signature cushioning system designed to absorb shock efficiently during impact and provide a soft landing, thereby enhancing comfort and reducing stress on the feet and joints.
What is the difference between the GEL-NYC and other ASICS running shoes?
The GEL-NYC is primarily a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker that leverages running shoe technology for comfort. Dedicated ASICS running shoes are engineered with specific features optimized for performance, support, and stability during various running disciplines.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have the correct size. If they are new, they may need a short break-in period. Loosening the laces can also provide more immediate comfort.
Squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes occur due to moisture between layers or friction. Try ensuring the shoes are completely dry inside and out. If the noise persists, consult with customer support.
Uneven wear on the outsole
Examine your walking gait. If the wear is significant and uneven, it might indicate a need for orthotics or a different shoe type. For normal wear, this is generally not an issue.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: The ASICS GEL-NYC Trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general adult use and are compatible with most casual wear.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the mesh and leather components, use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently remove dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing with a clean, damp cloth.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain their shape and colour.
