Asics Gel-NYC 2.0 "Oatmeal Umeboshi" - product description The Asics Gel-NYC 2.0 "Oatmeal Umeboshi" is a high-performance sneaker that draws inspiration from the brand's rich heritage and modern running footwear. The upper's design is directly inspired by the iconic GEL-1050 from 2000, while the classic mesh is complemented with premium suede overlays, giving the shoe a modern, luxurious feel. The unique "Oatmeal Umeboshi" colorway harmoniously combines a light, creamy oatmeal base with suede overlays in a deep, muted plum pink referring to the traditional Japanese umeboshi plum and gray accents, creating a unique lifestyle style. This second iteration of the GEL-NYC redefines comfort, with a new construction inspired by the GEL-1050 and the GEL-LYTE DS II sole. Thanks to the combination of TRUSSTIC support elements, GEL technology insoles, and FF BLAST PLUS cushioning, the midsole is lighter and offers significantly greater comfort than the original. Additionally, the angled design softens heel contact, facilitating more natural transitions, while flex grooves support the foot's natural gait. Choose the evolution of comfort and a unique, Japanese style for everyday wear! Check out other Asics sneakers available in our store.
