FAQs

What makes the GEL-NYC 2.0 unique compared to other ASICS models?

The GEL-NYC 2.0 often features unique design collaborations, such as the one with HAL STUDIOS, which draws inspiration from specific themes like New York City's industrial architecture, offering a distinct aesthetic beyond standard ASICS designs.

Are these trainers suitable for running or intense athletic activities?

While they incorporate GEL™ Technology for comfort, the GEL-NYC 2.0 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual trainer for urban environments. They are not optimized for high-impact running or specialized sports.

How should I clean the leather parts of the trainers?

Use a soft cloth dampened with water and a mild soap to clean the leather. For best results and to maintain suppleness, consider using a dedicated leather conditioner periodically.

What does the 'Signature Series' mean for this shoe?

The 'Signature Series' indicates a special collaboration where a design visionary or partner (like HAL STUDIOS) applies their unique touch to a key ASICS model, deepening the product's storytelling and design language.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The trainers offer some protection, but the mesh upper is not fully waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to prevent water saturation and potential damage to the materials. Ensure they are thoroughly dried if they do get wet.

What is the material composition of the GEL-NYC 2.0?

The trainers typically feature a mesh upper with leather overlays, a GEL™ Technology cushioning system, and a rubber outsole.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound from shoes

This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. Try inserting a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole. If the squeak persists, it might be internal and could resolve with continued wear.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the shoes are correctly laced and that the size is appropriate. New shoes may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.

Dirt accumulation on mesh

Use a soft-bristled brush and a mild soap solution with water to gently clean the mesh areas. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As footwear, the ASICS GEL-NYC 2.0 Trainers require no setup beyond lacing them to your preferred fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general adult use and are compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual attire. They are not intended for specialized sports requiring specific performance footwear.

Care: To maintain the quality and appearance of your GEL-NYC 2.0 Trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently remove dirt and dust from the mesh and leather surfaces. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Leather Care: For leather overlays, consider using a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
  3. Outsole Maintenance: Clean the rubber outsole with water and mild soap if needed. Ensure it is dry before storing.
  4. Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
