The GEL-NYC 2.0 sneaker sources inspiration from heritage and modern performance running styles.
Its upper construction references the GEL-1050 sneaker from the year 2000. The materials are also updated with a gradient application and reflective details for prominent contrast when light flashes across it in dark settings.
The newly designed tooling references the GEL-1050 sneaker, as well as the GEL-LYTE DS II shoe outsole influences for lifestyle purposes. Through a combination of TRUSSTIC support units, GEL technology inserts, and FF BLAST PLUS cushioning, this midsole formation creates a lighter and more comfortable feel than the first version.
