ASICS Gel-NYC Cream Cloud Gray Blue

ASICS Gel-NYC Cream Cloud Gray Blue

The ASICS Gel-NYC Cream Cloud Grey Blue is a new lifestyle sneaker that brings back the features of retro running shoes in a modern design. The combination of light shades (cream, cloud grey, blue) gives this model a fresh but understated look.

Everyday use and comfort

• GEL cushioning in the midsole helps absorb shock while walking or moving around the city.
• The upper is likely to be a combination of textile/mesh base + layers (e.g. synthetic, suede) to provide breathability and durability (this is a commonly known construction for this type).
• This model leans towards style-oriented wear: ideal for streetwear / lifestyle sets, not for competitive sports.

Design and details

The color scheme starts with a light cream tone, broken up by layers of cloud gray, and small blue details pop up in the design. The sole, logos and stitching provide a subtle contrast, but not too loud. The model comes with a running-inspired sole design, layered upper and signature ASICS formstripe motifs.

Sizing and tips

Experience has shown that most people choose their usual size (TTS – true to size) for this model; if someone has wider feet, a half size larger may be more comfortable.

Why do people like this model?

This Gel-NYC version is a great example of how to translate the feel of retro running shoes to today's streetwear, while the GEL cushioning provides all-day comfort. If you want modern style but subdued shades, this model is a great choice.
