The ASICS GEL-NYC 2055 merges design influences from early 2000s running shoes with modern construction for everyday wear. It draws inspiration from iconic archival silhouettes like the GT-2050 and GT-2060, incorporating their design elements into the upper, including the ASICS Stripes, heel counter, and eyelet structure. The tooling is inherited from the GEL-CUMULUS 16, featuring lightweight foam and GEL technology in the heel and forefoot for enhanced comfort and responsive cushioning.
