ASICS GEL-NYC™ sneakers bring running heritage to everyday wear

The ASICS GEL-NYC takes running shoe foundations and points them at everyday life. The upper draws from the GEL-NIMBUS™ 3 (early 2000s) with detailing borrowed from the GEL-MC PLUS™ V. The tooling comes from the GEL-CUMULUS™ 16. Rearfoot and forefoot GEL™ technology handles cushioning — the same shock-absorbing tech ASICS uses across its performance running line, retuned for the kind of movement that doesn't show up on a Strava feed: long city walks, full days on your feet, the commute that turns into 15,000 steps.

The GEL-NYC collection covers two main silhouettes:

• GEL-NYC: the original. Unisex, mens, and kids' (GS and PS) sizing. Materials across colourways include breathable mesh, suede overlays, and patent synthetic leather.
• GEL-NYC 2.0: a chunkier build. Upper references the GEL-1050™ (year 2000), with FF BLAST™ PLUS cushioning, TRUSSTIC™ support, AHAR™ outsole rubber, and walking-specific flex grooves.

Colourway range across the GEL-NYC spans neutrals, reflective gradients, textured suede, nubuck, and black ASICS sneakers for everyday wear.
