ASICS Gel-NYC Cloud Grey Cement Grey

The ASICS Gel-NYC Cloud Grey Cement Grey builds on the Gel-NYC’s sophisticated design, though this version features a color scheme based almost entirely on shades of gray and cool neutral tones. The silhouette retains its characteristic layered design, dynamic side lines, and chunky sole, but thanks to the limited color palette, the proportions of the upper, the arrangement of the panels, and the contrast between materials take center stage. The design gives a more austere and technical impression than the lighter variants of the model.The color scheme is based on a combination of Cloud Grey and Cement Grey with subtle silver details. A light grey base covers most of the upper’s surface, while darker panels accentuate the side elements of the construction and give the silhouette greater depth. Metallic accents appear around the ASICS logo and select synthetic overlays, breaking up the more matte texture of the materials. Thanks to the monochromatic color scheme, the layered arrangement of the panels remains very distinct and more strongly highlights the technical character of the model.The upper is made from a combination of breathable mesh, synthetic panels, and elements with a softer texture. The mesh provides ventilation and reduces the weight of the construction, while the layered overlays stabilize the whole and maintain the model’s characteristic shape. The combination of several different textures ensures the surface remains visually varied despite the subdued color scheme. The elaborate arrangement of the side panels further reinforces the more technical appearance of the entire silhouette.The outsole utilizes solutions inspired by the GEL-CUMULUS models and is equipped with GEL technology responsible for cushioning and energy dissipation while walking. The construction is based on lightweight foam and a segmented outsole design that improves flexibility and ground contact. The extended heel section further emphasizes the distinctive proportions of the Gel-NYC model.
