- How does the GEL-NYC 2.0 differ from the GEL-NYC?
- The 2.0 uses a different sole from the original GEL-NYC. It keeps the retro mesh and suede upper but moves to a FF BLAST PLUS midsole with GEL technology and a TRUSSTIC rubber outsole.
- Is the GEL-NYC 2.0 good for running?
- No. Shoppers describe it as a lifestyle shoe that works for walking and casual wear, and some find the sole too hard and the shoe too heavy for running.
- Does it fit true to size?
- Fit reports are mixed. The heel holds snugly, but several shoppers say the toe box is tight, so those with wide feet may want to size up or try it on first.
- What cushioning does it have?
- It has a FF BLAST PLUS midsole with GEL technology in the heel area, plus a TRUSSTIC treaded rubber outsole for grip.
- Is it comfortable for all-day wear?
- For short walks and casual outings, most find it fine. For standing or walking all day, some owners report discomfort after an hour or more.
- What is the upper made of?
- A mix of mesh and suede, with a padded collar and a lace-up closure. The ASICS logo is embroidered on the padded tongue.
