FAQs

Are these shoes good for running?

The ASICS Gel-NYC Trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. While they offer cushioning, they are not specialized running shoes and may not provide the specific support or features required for intense running.

How should I clean the suede parts?

Gently brush the suede with a soft suede brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner, following the product instructions carefully. Avoid using water directly on the suede.

What is the main benefit of the GEL technology?

The GEL insert technology is designed to provide excellent shock absorption, reducing impact on your feet and joints during movement. This enhances comfort, especially during extended periods of walking.

Can I wear these in wet conditions?

While the rubber outsole offers some traction, the leather, suede, and mesh materials are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials and maintain comfort.

What type of socks are recommended?

For general comfort and to prevent rubbing, wearing standard athletic socks or comfortable casual socks is recommended. Material choice can depend on personal preference and the weather.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by ASICS, comparing your foot measurements to the UK sizing. Ensure a comfortable fit without being too tight or too loose, allowing for slight foot swelling during the day.

Troubleshooting

Uneven lacing or pressure points

Adjust the lacing pattern. Try loosening the laces over the pressure points or re-lacing using a different eyelet configuration.

Squeaking noise during walking

This can sometimes be caused by the tongue rubbing against the inside of the shoe or moisture trapped within the sole. Try inserting a thin piece of fabric under the tongue or ensuring the shoes are completely dry.

Material scuffing or staining

For minor scuffs on leather, a leather conditioner might help. For suede, use a suede eraser. Address stains promptly with appropriate cleaners for the specific material.
