Memory foam collar forms personalized ankle cushion

The Asics GEL-NYC blends classic running shoe elements with modern performance technologies, delivering a unique look for the streets. Drawing inspiration from the GEL-NIMBUS 3 of the early 2000s and refined with details from the GEL-MC-PLUS V, it presents a distinctive mix of materials that convinces both visually and functionally. The breathable upper ensures a pleasant foot climate, while the prominent overlays provide structure and stability. Inside, the midsole originally developed for the GEL-CUMULUS 16 offers an ideal level of cushioning. Featuring lightweight foam combined with proven GEL technology, it reduces impact forces and enhances comfort for both everyday wear and longer distances. The dynamic design of the GEL-NYC appears sporty yet stylish, making it easy to incorporate into modern outfits. The durable outsole also ensures reliable grip across various surfaces, supporting a stable stride. With its well-thought-out construction, this shoe skillfully bridges the gap between retro aesthetics and innovative performance for an active urban lifestyle.
