FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The GEL-NYC is primarily a lifestyle sneaker. While comfortable for walking and light activity, they are not intended for long-distance athletic running.
How should I clean my GEL-NYC trainers?
Clean them by hand using a soft brush, mild soap, and water. Avoid submerging them or using a washing machine.
Do these trainers run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing, but individual fit preferences may vary depending on sock thickness and foot arch.
What is the primary material of the sole?
The sole is constructed from durable rubber, providing long-lasting traction and comfort.
Can I use custom insoles with this model?
Yes, the standard sockliner can often be removed to accommodate custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after long days of wear
Feet naturally swell throughout the day. Loosen the laces slightly to provide more volume and improve circulation.
Surface dirt accumulation
Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry debris, then wipe with a lightly dampened cloth. Allow to air dry away from direct sunlight.
Slippage on damp surfaces
Ensure the outsole treads are clear of debris, as trapped gravel or dirt can reduce the effectiveness of the rubber grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS GEL-NYC trainers, avoid machine washing, which can degrade the cushioning and materials. Instead, spot clean the exterior with a soft brush and mild soap solution when dirt accumulates. For storage, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent the rubber from hardening. To ensure proper fit, always verify your UK size against ASICS' standard sizing charts, as these sneakers generally follow traditional fit guidelines.
