Got the product backordered back in July 10th. It was supposed to ship my July 29th and got delay 2 times and then the purchase canceled. I tried to purchase again in mid-August since it is still up for backorder, and again the shipment got delayed twice. Today, August 28th it was supposed to be shipped and again got delayed to September 5th. This was supposed to be a birthday gift for someone who really wanted this sneakers so I did not mind waiting a little longer but this is way too much! Don’t buy even if it’s still available!

Never had such comfort for trainers I bought for casual wear out the box. I didn't care to wear trainers for the sake of comfort because I am picky about the shoes I wear. This has actually given me pause for thought (I'm 36) for the first time. Must try trainers. I am now eagerly on the lookout for future drops to pick up a different colourway :)

These sneakers are super cute. I didn't see they had a few sequins on the side until they arrived, but I think it adds to the look. I always wear a 9 in running shoes of Asics, Brooks, etc., so ordered my normal size. These have so much padding inside that they fit tight and I can only wear them with super thin socks. If you want to wear these with thicker running socks, I'd recommend trying 1/2 size up.

I ordered the Smoke Grey Gel NYC Asics and they sent me a cream/ blue colored shoe 3 weeks ago... I spoke to about 5 reps that told me it must have been a mistake and that the shoe was in stock. I waited over a week or so for someone to email me about the exchange information and then another few days for the 'correct' shoes to come in. When those shoes came in... IT WAS THE SAME SHOE!! Literally no change. I am infuriated, with how big this company is, this shouldn't be happening.
Excellent all rounder, came very quickly and feel great on foot immediately. Look great and are great for a run or casual with shorts or whatever. Very comfortable and nice detailing material wise and also robust - you could wear these daily as I have done and from walking the dog, a jog or going for a bite to eat they simply cover it all.
I am absolutely in love with these shoes!!! They have great cushiony arch support and the sage green colors are even cuter in person. I wear them with slacks for work or with a casual outfit to walk around the neighborhood and I think they look cool either way. So glad I got these
I bought these a week ago tried them on and they fit! Was pretty happy about that. I ran some errands to get a feel for them and they felt great. I decided to wear them on a 5 mile walk and half way through my left ankle had discomfort. I tried fixing my sock but it kept hurting me. When I was finally done I took my shoe off to see what was going on and my ankle was raw with a blister. For the price of these “walking” shoes and they can’t even with stand a few miles walking. I am extremely disappointed. I can’t return them since I walked in them. I would NOT buy these shoes at all!!!
Good sneaker!The only reason I gave a 4 star rating is because it took so long to get the sneakers. I bought them for a concert and they did arrive the day of the concert. Otherwise, I love the color and they’re great for walking. I hope the other colors come back in stock. I would like to buy another pair.
So Comfy, So Stylish. I wish I discovered the Gel-NYC Sooner. These look clean and are literally the most comfortable daily shoe ever. I wanted a more "adult" shoe. I'm in my 30's now and I don't need to wear basketball shoes with my outfits. I am now a proud "Asics Ranger". Will be buying these in a multitude of colorways.
Super pretty and stylish but they run a bit small for me and I always get a 1/2 size bigger. I'm a 7.5 but I always buy 8 but these were a bit snug for but I think its because I have wide feet. These also aren't the most comfortable shoes either. Ive had sneakers from nike and Adidas but these are probably the least comfortable out of the three, but it ultimately depends on the style and I think these aren't their most comfy shoes.
