ASICS GEL-NYC - Grey - Suede - UK 7.5

The ASICS GEL-NYC is primarily designed for casual wear, everyday comfort, and light recreational activities like walking or urban exploration. They are not intended for high-performance running or intense athletic training.

For suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a suede-specific cleaner and protector are recommended. Always follow the product instructions and test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid using water or harsh detergents directly on the suede.

GEL technology is a silicone-based material placed in the midsole of ASICS shoes, typically in the heel and/or forefoot. It provides excellent shock absorption, reducing impact during walking and standing, leading to enhanced comfort and cushioning.

ASICS shoes generally fit true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size. If you are unsure, you can refer to the ASICS size guide for precise measurements.

While the shoes are durable, the suede and mesh components are not waterproof. Wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions may lead to water absorption and potential damage to the materials. Applying a water-repellent spray designed for suede and textile can offer some protection.

Adjust the classic lacing system. Experiment with different lacing techniques. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. For initial use, a short breaking-in period may also improve comfort.

Use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, apply a suede cleaner according to its instructions. Always test on a small, hidden area first.

The lifespan of cushioning depends on usage frequency and intensity. While GEL technology is durable, all foam components will compress over extensive use. Ensure you are using the shoes for their intended casual purpose.

Squeaking can be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's sole. Try removing the insole, cleaning the area, and lightly dusting with baby powder or cornstarch before reinserting. If the squeak persists, it might be due to the outsole on certain surfaces.
