Product Description
The ASICS Gel-NYC Black is the all-black Black/Black colorway of the ASICS Gel-NYC, style code 1203A739-001, released at $150 as one of the most boldly tonal and most broadly wearable executions in the Gel-NYC's extensive colorway program. The Gel-NYC, as confirmed by Sneaker News and The Drop Date, was conceived by Angelo Baque of AWAKE NY and debuted through a collaboration with that brand, the silhouette combining tooling elements from three archival ASICS running models: the GEL-CUMULUS 16, the GEL-NIMBUS 3, and the GEL-MC PLUS V, creating a hybrid construction whose design lineage reaches back into the early-2000s ASICS running archive. The construction uses a combination of breathable mesh and durable synthetic materials for the upper, providing the snug yet flexible fit appropriate to both running-adjacent performance use and the everyday lifestyle wear that defines the Gel-NYC's primary context in the market, with plush rearfoot and forefoot GEL cushioning for superior shock absorption, a FLUIDRIDE midsole for lightweight responsiveness, a supportive heel counter with padded collar and smooth interior lining, and a grippy rubber outsole with strategic traction zones for city surfaces. StockX's product description of the Black/Black version specifically noted the sculpted midsole lines and ASICS side stripes nodding to archival running DNA, the stealthy Black/Black colorway delivering a premium feel and low-key attitude that makes it one of the most universally wearable and most styling-flexible executions in the Gel-NYC's color range, suited for commute to weekend rotation as a go-to dark monochromatic sneaker. Released December 3, 2025 at $150.
