FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the Gel NYC features excellent cushioning, it is designed primarily as a lifestyle and casual trainer, not as a specialized long-distance running shoe.

How do I determine my correct size?

ASICS Gel NYC trainers generally fit true to size based on standard adult UK sizing for trainers.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are typically removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, these trainers are made with breathable fabrics and are not designed to be waterproof.

How do I keep the black colour vibrant?

Avoid leaving the shoes in direct sunlight for extended periods and clean them using only mild detergents to prevent fading.

What is the difference between standard and utility models?

The Utility series often features slight variations in material density or subtle design tweaks intended to offer extra durability for varied urban environments.

Troubleshooting

Feeling discomfort after long wear

Ensure the laces are not tied too tightly across the bridge of the foot and check that your socks provide adequate arch support.

Outsole collecting debris

Use a small brush or a toothpick to gently dislodge pebbles or dirt trapped in the tread pattern after walking on gravel.

Creasing at the forefoot

Use shoe trees when not in use to help the upper material maintain its shape and reduce the appearance of creases.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Modern, neutral colour palette

Cons

  • Not specifically designed for high-intensity competitive sports
  • Light-coloured grey accents may require frequent cleaning
  • Heritage-focused sole might feel different than modern pure running shoes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your ASICS Gel NYC trainers maintain their shape and function, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fit: Ensure you are wearing your standard athletic shoe size. The Gel NYC generally follows standard sizing, providing a secure lockdown in the midfoot.
  2. Care: Keep the trainers away from harsh chemicals. If they become dirty, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry mud or dust. For stains, use a mild soap mixed with water and wipe gently with a soft cloth. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature aging of the materials and discolouration of the grey accents.
  4. Maintenance: Regularly untie your laces when taking the shoes off to preserve the structure of the heel collar.
