FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The ASICS Gel-NYC Trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear, incorporating comfort and style. While they offer cushioning, they are not optimized for the specific demands of rigorous running.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by ASICS or the retailer. Generally, measure the length of your foot and compare it to the indicated measurements for UK sizes. Ensure you consider the width if specified.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially due to the leather and suede components. Hand washing individual parts and air drying is the preferred method to preserve the materials and structure.

What is the main benefit of the GEL technology?

The GEL technology in the midsole is designed to absorb shock effectively, providing enhanced cushioning and reducing impact on your feet and joints during wear.

How does the heritage design influence the shoe?

The heritage design, inspired by 2000s aesthetics, influences the visual style with features like the mix of leather, suede, and mesh. It aims to provide a blend of retro style with modern comfort elements.

Are these trainers waterproof?

These trainers are not designed to be waterproof. The materials used, particularly leather and suede, can be damaged by excessive water exposure. They offer some protection against light moisture but are not suitable for wet conditions.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces to provide more room. If the issue persists, consider trying a half-size larger or checking the width options if available.

Squeaking noise

This can sometimes occur due to friction between components. Try inserting a powder (like talcum powder) into the shoe where the squeak seems to originate, or ensure laces are tied consistently.

Dirt on suede or leather

Use a specialized suede brush for suede and a damp cloth for leather. For persistent stains on suede, a suede cleaner may be necessary, following product instructions carefully.
