Asics GEL-NYC Cream Oyster Grey

First, the Asics GEL-NYC Cream Oyster Grey sits at the intersection of cream and grey that defines the best retro runners — colors that suggest heritage and freshness simultaneously. The GEL-NYC's early-2000s running DNA, rebuilt for runners who know the difference between a fashionable sneaker and a significant one.

Moreover, the GEL-NYC connects the technical running aesthetics of the Y2K era to contemporary sneaker culture — a shoe that speaks to runners as much as to collectors.

GEL Technology: Heritage Cushioning With Running DNA

Additionally, gEL technology is Asics' signature cushioning compound — a silicone-based system developed for performance running that provides targeted impact absorption at heel and forefoot. In the GEL-NYC, it is housed in a mesh and synthetic upper construction that references the technical running aesthetics of the early 2000s while meeting contemporary fit and comfort expectations.

Mesh and synthetic overlays: premium retro construction. AHAR rubber outsole. 330 g. 12 mm drop. Heritage running technology for contemporary lifestyle wear.

For Who?

For runners who want their off-day shoes to reflect their running identity. The GEL-NYC for athletes who appreciate authentic performance heritage.
