FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Gel-Nyc RGD is categorized as a sportstyle trainer designed for city wear, not as a specialized performance running shoe.
How do I know if the size is correct?
You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to ensure comfort during walking.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can damage the leather components and weaken the adhesive used in the construction.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, they contain mesh panels for breathability, meaning they are not designed to be waterproof.
What material is used for the upper?
The upper consists of a durable combination of leather, synthetic panels, and mesh for a mix of support and ventilation.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt accumulation in mesh panels
Use a soft brush to gently agitate the mesh, followed by a slightly damp cloth to dab the area.
Creasing on leather panels
This is normal with leather footwear. Use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help maintain their shape.
Sensation of the fit feeling too tight
Ensure the laces are not over-tightened. If it persists, remove the insole temporarily to check if the issue is with the base or the upper construction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Asics Gel-Nyc RGD trainers, proper maintenance is essential.
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them for short periods initially to allow the material to conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh and synthetic areas. For leather panels, use a damp cloth and specialized leather cleaner. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or blow dryers, which can cause the leather to crack or the adhesives to weaken.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material discoloration over time.
