TLDR: The ASICS GEL-NYC 2.0 “Pink Cloud” marks the launch of the next generation of the popular lifestyle runner. Inspired by the GEL-1050, the silhouette combines retro running design with modern FF BLAST PLUS cushioning, GEL technology and enhanced comfort. It will be released on 13 July 2026 for €160. With the ASICS GEL-NYC 2.0 “Pink Cloud”, ASICS is consistently building on the success of its lifestyle runner. The second generation remains true to the blend of running heritage and modern performance, whilst incorporating numerous technical improvements for even greater everyday comfort.
The upper continues to take its cue from the ASICS GEL-1050 from the early 2000s, combining breathable materials with high-quality synthetic leather overlays. The soft “Pink Cloud” colourway gives the sporty silhouette a clean and modern look that can be styled in many different ways.
The construction underfoot has been significantly revised. The new midsole combines FF BLAST PLUS cushioning with the tried-and-tested GEL elements in the forefoot and rearfoot, making the shoe lighter, softer and more responsive than its predecessor. The setup is complemented by TRUSSTIC technology, which offers additional stability whilst supporting natural movement patterns. A bevelled heel also ensures particularly smooth transitions from heel to toe.
With its successful blend of retro running DNA, modern technology and high levels of everyday comfort, the ASICS GEL-NYC 2.0 is set to appeal once again to many fans of classic, performance-inspired trainers.
