The ASICS GEL-NYC reimagines ASICS's running heritage in a silhouette built for the city. Designed as a lifestyle collection with sporting roots, it combines renowned GEL midsole technology with lightweight foam cushioning for comfort on urban runs without compromising on style.
The construction features a technical mesh upper and synthetic overlays for breathability and support; padded details on the collar and tongue ensure a comfortable fit all day long. The mid-profile rubber outsole provides stable traction on pavement and durability, while the midsole design balances dynamic performance and comfort for everyday use.
Aesthetically, the collection features a blend of retro-running influences and contemporary minimalism: clean lines, layered panels, and palettes ranging from urban neutrals to vibrant, contrasting editions. ASICS has released several colorways and some special versions that emphasize the intersection of performance and fashion.
For those seeking versatility, the GEL-NYC works equally well as a shoe for daily walks and commutes, as well as for casual looks with a sporty feel. Additionally, some of the brand's recent releases have incorporated recycled materials and sustainable finishes, aligning with current trends in sportswear.
