The GEL-NYC blends early 2000s ASICS energy with modern comfort, and it does it without feeling forced. The upper takes cues from the GEL-NIMBUS 3 and mixes in details from the GEL-MC PLUS V. Layered, technical and properly thought through.

Mesh underlays keep it breathable. Suede overlays add depth and structure. Underneath, it's built on the GEL-CUMULUS 16. Lightweight foam plus GEL cushioning in the heel and forefoot means you can actually wear these all day without thinking about it while it's got that proper Y2K runner look, but styled for now.
