FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the GEL-NYC is inspired by performance running heritage, it is designed primarily as a lifestyle sneaker for casual wear rather than for high-intensity running.
How do I determine my size?
The GEL-NYC fits true to standard adult sizing. It is recommended to choose the size you typically wear in other Asics lifestyle sneakers.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the structural materials of the shoe. Use only hand-cleaning methods.
What is the primary material used?
The silhouette features a combination of lightweight technical foams, performance textiles, and synthetic materials to balance style and comfort.
Does the GEL technology provide arch support?
The GEL inserts provide excellent impact absorption and underfoot comfort, which contributes to overall support during walking.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the upper material
Use a soft-bristled dry brush to remove loose debris before attempting to wipe with a damp cloth.
Midsole feels slightly damp after cleaning
Allow the shoe to air dry in a well-ventilated area for 24 hours before your next use.
Creasing in the toe box area
Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the upper maintain its structural integrity and reduce creasing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Asics GEL-NYC trainers remain in peak condition, proper care is essential.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Gently brush off dry dirt with a soft-bristled brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid fully submerging the shoes in water to protect the integrity of the foam and GEL inserts.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration of the brown and black materials.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Never use a tumble dryer or heat sources, as these can warp the foam cushioning.
Compatibility:
- These trainers are designed for adult feet and typically fit true to size. They pair well with casual apparel, such as denim, athleisure, or relaxed trousers, making them highly compatible with modern, casual style aesthetics.
