The ASICS Gel NYC is a hybrid lifestyle silhouette that fuses design elements from two archive ASICS models: the Gel-Nimbus 3 and the MC-Plus V. First released in 2023, the Gel NYC quickly became one of the most popular silhouettes in the retro running revival, sitting alongside the Gel-Kayano 14 and Gel-1130 as a cornerstone of ASICS' lifestyle range. Its chunky profile, exposed GEL technology, and premium material mixes have made it a favourite in the fashion-forward sneaker community.

The Oatmeal Obsidian Grey colourway features an off-white mesh upper with light grey synthetic suede touches that create a soft, tonal base. A charcoal suede eyestay and mudguard add depth and a premium feel, while matte silver ASICS side stripes outlined in dark grey trim provide understated branding. The ASICS spiral logo embroidered on the tongue completes the look. The bicolour foam midsole adds visual interest to the profile.

Bicolour foam midsole with exposed GEL inserts in forefoot and heel for responsive, visible cushioning. Off-white mesh upper with light grey synthetic suede and charcoal suede accents for premium mixed-material construction. Matte silver ASICS side stripes outlined in dark grey trim for authentic branding. Embroidered ASICS spiral logo on tongue for heritage detailing. Durable rubber outsole with reliable grip for everyday surfaces.

FitRuns true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK size.

The ASICS Gel NYC Oatmeal Obsidian Grey is ideal for anyone who wants a premium lifestyle sneaker with a neutral, versatile palette. The oatmeal and grey tones make it one of the easiest Gel NYC colourways to wear daily, while the suede accents and exposed GEL technology give it enough design presence to stand on its own. A strong choice for anyone who appreciates the chunky retro running trend but prefers softer, more muted colourways.

The Oatmeal Obsidian Grey Gel NYC is one of the most versatile ASICS colourways available. The neutral oatmeal and grey palette works effortlessly with cream joggers, light wash denim, olive cargo pants, or tailored trousers. The charcoal suede accents add just enough contrast to keep it from being too plain. A genuine everyday shoe that bridges casual and smart-casual.

The ASICS Gel NYC sits alongside the Gel-Kayano 14, Gel-1130, and New Balance 1906R as part of the chunky retro running revival. Compared to the Gel-Kayano 14, the Gel NYC has a more modern, hybrid design that blends elements from multiple archive models. Against the Saucony ProGrid Omni 9, the Gel NYC is chunkier with more visible cushioning technology. The Oatmeal Obsidian Grey colourway offers a warmer, more neutral alternative to the silver and metallic tones common on the ProGrid Omni 9 and Gel-Kayano 14.

FAQ

Yes, the ASICS Gel NYC runs true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK size. The mesh upper with suede overlays provides a comfortable, supportive fit.

The Gel NYC features ASICS' signature GEL technology with exposed GEL inserts in both the forefoot and heel. These gel units absorb shock on impact and provide responsive cushioning throughout the day. The bicolour foam midsole adds additional comfort and support, making the Gel NYC genuinely comfortable for extended wear.

The Oatmeal Obsidian Grey colourway is available in unisex sizing. Check the available sizes on the product page for current stock.

We recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap. For the suede eyestay and mudguard, use a suede brush and protector spray. Avoid machine washing as this can damage the suede panels and GEL inserts. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
