ASICS continues to ride a wave of momentum, fueled by consistent collaborations and a growing catalogue of stylish in-line offerings. While recent partnerships—like the standout drop with Sneaker Politics—have brought fresh energy to the brand, general release colorways are doing just as much heavy lifting. Case in point: the new ASICS GEL-NYC “Grey/Black,” which is now available through JD Sports.
This latest iteration of the GEL-NYC blends neutral tones with just the right amount of punch. The upper is built with layered grey and silver-toned suede, giving the shoe a textural base that plays to its retro-tech design. Below, black leather and suede overlays reinforce the silhouette’s rugged aesthetic while providing a clean contrast.
Adding a pop of heat is the bold red ASICS branding on both the tongue and lateral side, offering a sharp color break that elevates the otherwise muted palette. Underfoot, the GEL-cushioned midsole stays true to form, combining comfort and structure for all-day wear.
With the GEL-NYC quickly becoming a fan favorite among retro-runner enthusiasts, this “Grey/Black” colorway is another solid entry in the growing lineup.
