FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While durable and supportive, these trainers are primarily designed for utility and daily lifestyle wear rather than high-performance running.
How do I clean my ASICS Gel-NYC Utility trainers?
Clean them by hand using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging them or using a washing machine.
Are these true to size?
The Gel-NYC Utility series generally fits true to standard adult sizing, but it is recommended to check the specific UK size guide before purchase.
Can the insoles be removed?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable if you need to insert custom orthotics.
What is the primary material used?
The trainers feature a mix of durable synthetic materials and mesh, balanced for both longevity and breathability.
Troubleshooting
Trainer feels too snug initially
Loosen the lacing system completely and re-lace to your foot shape; the materials will provide a slight break-in period.
Dirt buildup on the outsole
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently dislodge debris from the tread patterns to maintain grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS Gel-NYC Utility trainers last, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps. For the initial setup, ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tension to take full advantage of the internal support structures. When cleaning, avoid machine washing; instead, use a soft cloth with a mild detergent and water to wipe down the surface. Air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the integrity of the cushioning materials and fabric.
