FAQs

Are these sneakers suitable for serious running?

While the ASICS GEL-NYC features responsive GEL cushioning, they are primarily designed for urban exploration, casual wear, and light recreational activities. For dedicated running, ASICS offers more specialized running shoe models.

How do I determine the correct size for a junior?

We recommend referring to the official ASICS junior size chart, often available on product pages or the ASICS website. Measure the foot length and compare it to the chart for the most accurate fit, as junior sizing can vary.

Can I put my ASICS GEL-NYC sneakers in the washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended for these sneakers. The harsh cycles and detergents can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure. Always hand clean and air dry them.

What is 'Rearfoot GEL Technology'?

Rearfoot GEL Technology is ASICS' proprietary cushioning system embedded in the heel area of the midsole. It's designed to absorb shock during impact, providing a softer landing and a more comfortable, responsive feel underfoot.

How do I clean the mesh upper part without damaging the suede?

For mesh, use a soft cloth dampened with a mild soap and water solution, gently dabbing the dirty areas. Be careful to avoid saturating the suede parts. Air dry thoroughly. For suede, use specific suede cleaning products.

Are these sneakers durable enough for daily junior wear?

Yes, the ASICS GEL-NYC sneakers are constructed with durable materials like a rubber outsole and a combination of mesh and suede, designed to withstand the rigors of daily junior wear and urban activities.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears stained or dull.

Use a specialized suede cleaning kit, including a suede eraser for scuffs and a suede brush to restore the nap. Follow product instructions carefully.

Sneakers have an unpleasant odor.

Remove insoles and allow them to air out. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes and insoles overnight, then shake out the excess. Consider using shoe deodorizers regularly.

Squeaking sound when walking.

Often caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's base. Try applying a thin layer of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole.

Laces frequently come untied.

Ensure you are using a proper knotting technique (e.g., a double knot). If the issue persists, consider replacing laces with a material that offers better grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Responsive Cushioning: Rearfoot GEL technology offers superior shock absorption and a comfortable stride, perfect for urban walking.
  • Enhanced Ankle Support: The padded collar provides a snug and supportive fit, reducing discomfort during active use.
  • Excellent Traction: A durable rubber outsole ensures reliable grip on diverse city terrains, enhancing stability and safety.
  • Comfortable & Breathable: The combination of mesh and suede materials promotes airflow, keeping feet cool and comfortable all day.
  • Stylish & Versatile: The sleek grey design with iconic ASICS branding makes these sneakers a fashionable choice for any casual outfit.

Cons

  • Specific Material Care: The suede components require specialized cleaning and maintenance to preserve their appearance and integrity.
  • Sizing Consideration: As junior-specific sizing, adult users or those unfamiliar with youth sizing may need to carefully consult size charts.
  • Not Designed for Extreme Sports: While durable, these sneakers are optimized for urban exploration and casual wear, not high-intensity athletic training or specialized sports.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Lacing: Ensure laces are threaded evenly through all eyelets.
  2. Fit: Slip your foot into the sneaker. The padded collar should comfortably hug your ankle.
  3. Adjust: Tighten the laces to achieve a snug, secure fit without being too restrictive. Double-knot for added security during active use.

Compatibility

  • Activities: Ideal for urban exploration, daily walking, casual wear, school, and light recreational activities. Not recommended for intense sports or specialized performance training.
  • Attire: Pairs well with a wide range of casual clothing, including jeans, shorts, leggings, and athletic wear. The grey color offers versatile styling options.

Care

Proper care extends the life and maintains the appearance of your ASICS GEL-NYC sneakers:

  • Cleaning:
  • General Dirt: Gently brush off loose dirt using a soft-bristled brush.
  • Mesh Areas: Use a soft cloth dampened with a mild soap and water solution. Gently dab and wipe the mesh. Avoid scrubbing aggressively.
  • Suede Areas: For dirt or stains on suede, use a specialized suede cleaner and a suede brush, following the product's instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid excessive moisture.
  • Drying: Always air dry your sneakers at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources like radiators. Do not use a machine dryer.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  • Avoid: Do not machine wash or submerge the sneakers in water, as this can damage the materials and adhesives. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
