ASICS GEL-NYC - Black - Kids

The ASICS GEL-NYC sneakers offer comfort and support for general active wear and light running, making them great for daily urban activities. However, for specialized sports like competitive basketball or long-distance track running, we recommend choosing footwear specifically designed for those activities.

For suede, use a soft-bristled brush or a dedicated suede eraser to gently remove surface dirt and scuffs. For more stubborn stains, a specialized suede cleaner can be applied, following the product's instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water, as they can damage the suede.

Rearfoot GEL technology is ASICS' signature cushioning system, strategically placed in the heel to absorb significant impact during the heel strike phase. This provides excellent shock absorption, reducing strain and offering a more comfortable and responsive feel with every step.

The ASICS GEL-NYC features a breathable mesh and suede upper, which is not waterproof. While the rubber outsole offers good grip, we recommend avoiding heavy rain or very wet conditions to protect the materials and maintain comfort and the shoe's longevity.

The sneakers are equipped with a durable rubber outsole, designed for reliable traction and longevity on urban surfaces. This makes them well-suited for the daily activities and explorations of active juniors.

The term 'Kids' or 'Juniors' sizing generally refers to footwear for children and pre-teens. For the most accurate fit, it is always recommended to consult the specific ASICS size chart, which provides detailed measurements to ensure you select the best size for the wearer.

First, double-check that you have the correct size by referring to ASICS' size guide. Ensure your socks are not overly thick. Allow a brief 'break-in' period for the shoes to conform to your feet. If discomfort persists, consider trying a half-size larger or a different width.

While the durable rubber outsole offers good traction, exercise additional caution on extremely wet, icy, or oily surfaces. Regularly clean the outsole to remove any embedded dirt or debris that might compromise its grip.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush off surface dirt and restore the texture. For more stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be effective. Follow instructions for any specialized suede cleaning products you use. Avoid using water directly on suede.
