FAQs
What is GEL Technology?
GEL Technology is a cushioning system developed by ASICS, designed to absorb shock effectively and provide a softer landing during impact and toe-off phases.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While inspired by running heritage and featuring cushioning, the Gel-NYC trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. For serious or performance running, ASICS offers specialized running shoe models.
What materials are the trainers made of?
The upper is crafted from a combination of mesh for breathability and leather for durability and structure. The outsole is made of durable rubber.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the ASICS sizing guide and measure your foot length. The product information lists the UK size (e.g., 6.5).
Can I machine wash these trainers?
It is not recommended to machine wash ASICS Gel-NYC trainers, as this can damage the materials, especially the GEL cushioning and leather components. Hand wash and air dry are the preferred methods.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Warranty information typically varies by retailer and region. Please check the specific terms and conditions provided at the time of purchase or contact the retailer.

Yes, the Gel-NYC series is available in various colorways. Please check the product listings for available options, such as the Grey variant.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Consider using thicker socks if the fit is slightly loose.
Squeaking sound from shoes
This can sometimes occur due to friction between internal components. Try inserting a powder like talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.
Leather scuffs or marks
Use a leather conditioner or cleaner specifically designed for the type of leather. For minor scuffs, a clean eraser might help. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.
Mesh material looks dirty
Gently scrub the mesh with a soft brush and a mixture of water and mild soap. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general adult use and are compatible with a wide range of casual and athleisure outfits.
Care:
- Cleaning Uppers: Use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt from the mesh and leather. For stubborn stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
