Asics Gel-NYC 2.0

Suede: Fine natural leather with a brushed finish that features a soft feel and elegant look. It offers good breathability and high wearing comfort, while gradually adapting to the shape of the foot. The material is both durable and flexible, ensuring comfort in everyday use. Suede is the ideal choice for footwear where the emphasis is on style, comfort and timeless design.

Textile: Textile uppers are a lightweight and highly breathable upper construction solution that uses woven or knitted structures of natural and synthetic fibres. This type of upper is valued in the footwear industry for its extraordinary ability to adapt to the shape of the foot, minimising the formation of blisters and ensuring high user comfort. Thanks to the porous structure of the material, textile uppers allow for efficient heat and moisture dissipation, which is crucial for maintaining an optimal microclimate even under increased physical stress. In addition, modern textile processing technologies allow reinforcement zones to be integrated directly into the knit, achieving an ideal balance between stability and flexibility.

FF Blast+: Enhanced ASICS cushioning foam in the midsole. Compared to the FF BLAST, it is lighter and softer, with a higher energy return - the impact is softer and the reflection more vivid. ASICS reports about 15% better cushioning and more "bounce" in stride, making it suitable for both comfortable and brisk workouts.

GEL™: Silicone gel technology in the midsole, developed in 1986. The gel inserts - located in both the heel and forefoot - effectively absorb shock, dissipate vibrations and ensure a smooth stride transition. The combination of GEL™ with foam layers promotes comfort, stability and natural movement.

Rubber: It is one of the most widely used materials for the production of soles due to its high mechanical resistance and durability. The main advantage of rubber soles is their excellent grip (traction) on different types of surfaces, which minimises the risk of slipping. The material is naturally flexible, waterproof and effectively absorbs shocks during walking. Depending on the compound, the rubber can be either soft for better contact with the ground or hard for maximum abrasion resistance on rough terrain.
