Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Getting started with your ASICS GEL-NYC trainers is simple:
- Lacing: Ensure the laces are securely tied but not overly tight. Adjust the lacing tension to achieve a comfortable, snug fit around your foot.
- Sock Choice: Wear appropriate socks. Thin, moisture-wicking socks can enhance comfort and breathability.
- Initial Wear: Wear them for short periods initially to allow the shoes to conform to your feet.
Compatibility
These trainers are designed for general lifestyle use and are compatible with a wide range of casual attire. Their versatile black colourway makes them easy to integrate into most wardrobes.
Care Instructions
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your ASICS GEL-NYC trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the textile and synthetic upper, gently wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and debris from the midsole and rubber outsole. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush with mild soap can be effective.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as this can damage materials.
- Odor Prevention: If shoes become damp or develop an odor, remove insoles and air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or baking soda inside the shoes.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
