FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The ASICS Gel-NYC trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle wear and everyday comfort. While they offer good cushioning for walking, they are not optimized for high-impact running or athletic training.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the ASICS sizing chart available on their official website or consult the specific sizing guide for this product. Consider trying them on if possible, as fit can vary between individuals.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning components of the shoe. Hand wash gently following the care instructions provided.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed with a combination of layered mesh for breathability and leather-style overlays for structure and a premium look.
How does the GEL cushioning work?
The visible GEL technology is strategically placed in the midsole to absorb shock effectively upon impact and provide a soft, cushioned feel underfoot, enhancing comfort during walking and daily activities.
Are these trainers waterproof?
These trainers are not waterproof. The mesh upper allows for breathability but does not provide protection against significant water exposure.
What is the main advantage of the White/Smoke Grey colorway?
The White/Smoke Grey colorway is highly versatile and understated, making it easy to pair with a wide variety of outfits and suitable for year-round wear.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort after initial wear
The trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure laces are tied correctly for optimal support.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the rubber outsole provides good grip, extremely wet or smooth surfaces can still pose a slipping hazard. Exercise caution in such conditions.
Fading of color or material wear
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh chemicals. Follow the recommended care instructions for cleaning and drying to preserve the materials.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and leather-style overlays with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and scuffs. A soft brush can be used for more stubborn marks.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
- Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning. Hand wash with mild soap and water, then air dry.
