Asics GEL-NYC 2.0 - Men's Shoes

The GEL-NYC 2.0 sneaker sources inspiration from heritage and modern performance running styles.​ Its upper construction references the GEL-1050 sneaker from the year 2000.​ The materials are also updated with suede overlays for a modern finish. The newly designed tooling references the GEL-1050 sneaker, as well as the GEL-LYTE DS II shoe outsole influences for lifestyle purposes.
