The ASICS GEL NYC ‘Cream Kale’ features an upper inspired by the GEL-NIMBUS 3 and GEL-MC PLUS V, highlighted by off-white mesh with leather overlays in a gleaming metallic silver finish — a familiar detail that references ASICS running style from the early 2000s. Green trim outlines the signature side stripes, matching the shoe’s eyelets and branding hits. A lightweight EVA midsole, borrowed from the GEL-CUMULUS 16, packs GEL cushioning in the forefoot and heel for a smooth and comfortable ride.
