FAQs
Are the Asics GEL-NYC trainers true to size?
Yes, they are designed to fit standard adult UK sizing; however, fit can be subjective, so we recommend trying them on with the specific socks you intend to wear.
Can I use these for jogging?
These trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual use. While they feature running-inspired technology, they lack the specific motion-control features required for high-mileage running.
How do I best clean the grey upper material?
For the upper, use a dry brush to remove loose dirt. If a stain persists, use a cloth slightly dampened with water and mild detergent, dabbing gently rather than scrubbing.
Is the sole replaceable?
No, the midsole and GEL technology are integrated components of the shoe's construction and are not replaceable.
Are these shoes suitable for wet weather?
While the materials are durable, they are not specifically waterproofed. It is recommended to use a water-repellent spray if you anticipate walking in damp conditions.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort after long periods of wear
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly to balance tension across the midfoot and consider swapping the insole for a custom orthotic if needed.
Outer sole shows premature dirt buildup
Use a damp cloth and mild soap to spot-clean the rubber sole units; avoid using harsh chemical solvents that might discolour the grey material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Asics GEL-NYC trainers remain in optimal condition, verify your UK size (e.g., 4.5) before initial wear to ensure a proper, pressure-free fit. For maintenance, keep the shoes away from excessive heat or direct sunlight when not in use to preserve the foam's integrity. To clean, remove surface dirt with a soft-bristled brush. If the trainers are heavily soiled, wipe them gently with a damp cloth and a mild detergent; avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as these processes can degrade the specialized GEL components and midsole adhesives.
