Our take on the Asics Men Gel-NYC 2.0

The Asics GEL-NYC 2.0 is a lifestyle sneaker that borrows its upper from the 2000-era GEL-1050 and adds suede overlays for a retro-running look. Underfoot it is modern: FF BLAST PLUS foam, GEL inserts in the heel and forefoot, and a TPU TRUSSTIC plate for stability. It sits between pure retro runners like the GEL-Kayano 14 and softer everyday trainers, with more cushioning and a lighter ride than the original GEL-NYC. It suits people who want a heritage-styled sneaker they can walk in all day.

About the Asics Men Gel-NYC 2.0

The Asics GEL-NYC 2.0 is a men's shoe that blends heritage running influences with modern performance technology. Its upper is inspired by the GEL-1050 from 2000 and is updated with suede overlays for a refined finish.

The redesigned tooling combines TRUSSTIC support, GEL technology inserts and FF BLAST PLUS cushioning for a lighter, more comfortable ride. GEL technology sits in the rearfoot and the forefoot for cushioning. The FF BLAST PLUS foam gives a soft, bouncy, lightweight feel.

A TPU TRUSSTIC component adds stability. Walking-specific flex grooves support natural movement, and an angled heel helps with smooth heel-to-toe transitions.

Questions and answers

How does the GEL-NYC 2.0 differ from the original GEL-NYC?
The 2.0 uses a redesigned sole with FF BLAST PLUS foam, which Asics says makes it lighter and more comfortable. The upper takes cues from the GEL-1050 and adds suede overlays.
Is it good for running or just walking?
Asics builds it with walking-specific flex grooves and an angled heel, so it is aimed at everyday walking and casual wear. The soft foam is fine for light jogs but not a dedicated running shoe.
Does it fit true to size?
Most owners find it close to true to size, though some say it runs slightly long and prefer going down half a size.
Does it offer stability for overpronation?
The TRUSSTIC TPU plate adds midfoot stability, but this is a neutral shoe, not a motion-control or stability model.
What cushioning does it use?
It has GEL inserts in the heel and forefoot plus FF BLAST PLUS foam through the midsole.
Can I wear it in rain or wet weather?
The suede overlays are not water-resistant and can stain, so it is better kept for dry conditions.
Where is the Asics Men Gel-NYC 2.0 cheapest?
At Solestop.com, for $140.50, as of our latest check.
