Love these “ultimate guide” videos - really helpful for everyone considering which model they want to add to their collection from each brand! Keep up the good work!
I got into asics sneakers two years ago when I started to work as a event photographer. I was tired of aching feet after long days of walking and standing. I first bought some basic black running shoes which are the most comfortable and lightest shoes I've ever worn. Then I got a grey pair of 1090 v2 which are probably my favorite shape out of all. Few months ago I copped me the white Gel NYCs which I also love very much and which probably manifested me buying nothing else than Asics in the near future.
@@banjo5835 i actually was just now cheking the NYC at a store and it was great except a bit pressing at the side of the small toe...not sure if it would loosen with wear
Jordan’s have been my thing since the late 90s. But as you grow older comfort becomes so important. Wearing asics and new balance the last couple years have been heaven on my feet. I wear my Jordan’s and dunks less and rather have some asics or NB on feet.
Update - after trying the NYCs out, my toes did not feel comfortable even after going up half size so I bought the Kayano 14 in white/malachite green before they sold out again on the ASICS website also half size up and the comfort is wayy better plus appreciate the style more.
Thanks for this guide it helped me with sizing on my pair of kayanos(I did end up sizing up .5 size) I’ve been wearing Asics for 5 years and back then they were a cheaper alternative to other brands, but i generally just bought whatever shoes were sick but on sale, or heavily discounted and i feel like thats a good way to get different styles rather than following the trends. Dont get me wrong Kayanos 14s are sick & they go with any outfit but they are mad expensive & sell out hella fast. same goes for these other models you mention. i dont want to blow up the spot, but i feel like Gel Sonomas, Gel Nimbus, & Ventures dont get alot of love and those are all i bought for a time. these are great high quality shoes. Especially my Venture Re’s, i rocked them to death but prob my fav shoe of all time. so those are my recommendations if ppl are discovering asics and dont need another pair of kayanos.
Just copped My first pair of Asics, I copped a Pair of the Gel 1130’s in the Clay Canyon Colorway and I’m Excited to see them in Hand and try them on 🔥🔥
Asics are one of the most popular shoe brands here in australia lol and have been for decades, kinda strange seeing people 'discover' the brand. guess thats the JJJJound effect 🤣
I'm into Nike, Adidas, New Balance, Jordans, Asics...i mess with so many different models too many to list. I dont have a very particular niche that i stick to. Really glad Asics are back, but I'm not shocked, as dad shoes were rising in underground popularity during the 2016-2019 yzy/offwhite hypebeast era, dad shoe was quietly gaining steam. as that hypebeast era died out, of course dad shoes would take over as they were the shoes to wear if you wanted to separate from the hypebeasts.
Great comparison review ☺️ I had scored the Hal studio 1130 as well as the NYC while no chance retail copping the hyped Kayano14 yet 🤣 Gonna try on 2160 soon. Btw, Gel Nimbus 9 is a great pair as well ☺️
Got kayano 14 and NYC today. Will see how everything works out. Been a Asics fan for a long time and kayano 14 looks like the style I got in 2009. 😊 Thank you for the comparison video. Honestly, I want to try all of them. 😅
@Nevrinnnn I ended up getting 1130 and I got 2 pairs, and I want more. 14, and NYC were comfortable but felt little off, I could not say what. 1130 is just right, not too soft, not too hard for my kind of feet. 😊
I cant speak for e everyone else but I will say that part of the reason I was so willing to try Asics is because I was tired of Chasing all the hyped shoes with artificial scarcity. They are also very comfortable.
@@nico77212 I think I have the ivory/clay grey of the first to come out I’m nearly 40 😂 so won’t do other color ways is this is making me look like a kid already
Love the Gel NYC got em on sale for less than $100 and i have been rocking them all day every day. The NB 2002R has officialy been replaced by my asics as my go to daily
I have been debating on which model to get. I like more skinny narrow shoes. So I been Leaning towards the 2160 or 1130 but I do like the kayano they all are honestly on my list so I just need to pull the trigger and get a pair and start my Asics collections
Got and tried all. 1130 was most comfortable. Kayano 14 was half size big (because that's what was available) and it did not feel as comfortable. Still so cute though, I got the pink (because that's what was available lol) but thinking about returning.
Hey josh, im wearing 9.5uk (28.5cm) mid cut nike blazer based on nike sizing. What size should i get for gel-nyc? Ive look through the sizing and they are different. Your guide would really help. Thanks
I got my 1st pair of ASICS in 2012 for work. I recently got my 2nd pair, the pure silver kayano legacy. I went vegan and gave up fashion. I would wear dashikis and rope sandals or some low quality shoe just to validate my opinion well... I'm back now and I'm not vegan anymore and it's good to see ASICS getting recognition. I’m going to do a 3D break down of the shoe I love em I might get this color next thank you for the video.
Its nice to see Asics hitting their stride, pun intended, because we're getting some really cool new things like their new skate line. Also, odd to hear that you need to go a half size up in most Asics, I wonder if that means you've only worn the popular lifestyle models because I've only ever needed a half size up in the Gel Lyte 3 or 5
Hey Josh, I’ve followed your sizing for some sneakers for some time now. Usually on point! I see the new Jordan 1 OG low black toe run big, have you gotten your hands on that pair?
Love these “ultimate guide” videos - really helpful for everyone considering which model they want to add to their collection from each brand! Keep up the good work!
People are trying new footwear right now and all for it 😎
Yes its a great time to be a sneakerhead
😎
Indeed .....it gets tiresome when EVERYTHING is always about Nike and Adidas. Variety is good for everyone
Aaics have been on fire 🔥🔥🔥 these laat three years or so. Its nice to see them starting to finally get mainstream recognition
This video is extremely helpful. Helped me decide on a pair of Gel-NYCs 😍

I found a 15 y/o runnig shoe from asics in my closet and no joke, it is so extremely comfy, copped 3 pairs sincd then, feel you 100% :))
also a videographer here so i know the struggles...how's the 1090 vs compared to these in regards two wide feet sizing?
@adischenker1851 the 1090 feels a bit slimmer than the NYC but I think if you don't have struggles with other asics models you should be fine.
@@banjo5835 i actually was just now cheking the NYC at a store and it was great except a bit pressing at the side of the small toe...not sure if it would loosen with wear
I copped the Kayano black & cream as my first pair, absolutely love them, nice to diversify the collection, a natural progression from new balance
Went from 993s to the same Kayano 14, feels like i’m getting older
Jordan’s have been my thing since the late 90s. But as you grow older comfort becomes so important. Wearing asics and new balance the last couple years have been heaven on my feet. I wear my Jordan’s and dunks less and rather have some asics or NB on feet.
My Jordan 1 are in my closet. My Asics are on my feet.
Same
@@maitrehg lmao
Bought my first pair of ASICS a week ago, Gel 1130 Black/Pure silver… went with my size 11 just like you, I’m in love with this sneaker ❤️🔥
You nailed this review🔥🔥 clean shots and fire pick ups
I really didn't like these at first but they are growing on me now
This was such a great video and even though I already have seen the trend on ASICS, this will deff help me purchase my first pair very soon! Thank you
Update - after trying the NYCs out, my toes did not feel comfortable even after going up half size so I bought the Kayano 14 in white/malachite green before they sold out again on the ASICS website also half size up and the comfort is wayy better plus appreciate the style more.
Gel NYC are on my list, I’m a new balance girl but want try something new. Great video! 🙏🏼
I recently bought the GT 2160 and its feels great on feet bought them half a size up 😊 great vid and subscribed

Oh man the comfort in the 1130 is insane for a
Asics are one of the most popular shoe brands here in australia lol and have been for decades, kinda strange seeing people 'discover' the brand. guess thats the JJJJound effect 🤣
I got the gel NYC. Best shoe I have ever. I also have the kayano. Both are good for wide feet and true to size.
If you would pick one for wide feet, which one is better?
My favorite brand. Gel Kayano 14 are my to go shoes. Style and comfort.
Great video. Happy to see a Japanese brand coming into the conversation.

The ultimate guides are great, looking to see if you’d do one comparing these models to like a Gel Lyte 3 or V
Thank you, I will review some Gel Lytes
i was on struggle street trying to decide and this gave me such a clear answer 🕺🏼
agreed! would love to hear about Gel-lyte III & V also.
Just found you. I don't buy many shoes but this vid was very very helpful to me looking from the outside. Thanks a mill
Bought a pair of gel 1090s In 2020. Love them!
Got kayano 14 and NYC today. Will see how everything works out. Been a Asics fan for a long time and kayano 14 looks like the style I got in 2009. 😊
Thank you for the comparison video. Honestly, I want to try all of them. 😅
Hey its been few months, can you tell me which one suits you better?
@Nevrinnnn I ended up getting 1130 and I got 2 pairs, and I want more. 14, and NYC were comfortable but felt little off, I could not say what.
1130 is just right, not too soft, not too hard for my kind of feet. 😊
Great video, I love asics! 1130s are my fav for sure
Is that good to wear them for boxing training?
We need this on new balance! Got confused between 860v2, 1906r, 2002r and all the similar style 🥴
I was looking into asics recently bec theyve been releasing good styles but i dont know which is comfortable. Thanks for this!
been checking out the NYC’s, the women styles are legit the best
Great video, should time stamp/chapter it it so we can just skip around
Gel-MC Plus is one of my favorites and ranks up there with these.
Bro you always bring bruv. Thank you for keeping it real 🌟brilliant summary
Thank you for the support 🙏
I love that every one sleeps on the Nimbus 9s because they only get Kiko collabs. Some of the best colors are on that model
Thanks for explaining ❤ from Tunisia
Would’ve liked to see the GEL-LYTE III OGs also here, I find it’s vertical two way open tongue quite comfortable and lighter overall!
Nice video comparisons!
I cant speak for e everyone else but I will say that part of the reason I was so willing to try Asics is because I was tired of Chasing all the hyped shoes with artificial scarcity. They are also very comfortable.
As much as I like some of these designs I can't get myself to buy any of them, I only buy sneakers that are hyped.
I think quite a few people were in the same boat
Really wanna try the NYC
This is so helpful!
My first asics were tiger otnisukas 20 years ago probably
I hope to get the Gel-Kayano 14 at my size 14 some days, because I already have the Kayano 28.
Imo the gel-lyte 3 is THE Asics sneaker, but otherwise your selection is pretty good
NYC hands down so comfy
I got one but I'm torn on what type of color I want to get next what color do you have and if you have any suggestions
@@nico77212 I think I have the ivory/clay grey of the first to come out I’m nearly 40 😂 so won’t do other color ways is this is making me look like a kid already
kayano and GT are overpronator shoes. If you are neutral you are going to get duck feet if you buy those. Stick with Gel NYC
my true to size is US 9.5 and have a slightly wide feet i prefer up half size
Just picked up two pairs of the 2160's. GR and the Kith Exclusive
Love the Gel NYC got em on sale for less than $100 and i have been rocking them all day every day. The NB 2002R has officialy been replaced by my asics as my go to daily
I find Asics more comfy than NB. Gel really works for me.
I love all asics
I’ve been checking out ASICS more recently but I don’t like how I look in them. You gotta do a outfit type video for these sneakers to help me.
If you wear New Balance you can wear the same type of fits
Gel Kayano 14 is the comfiest shoe I’ve ever owned
I have been debating on which model to get. I like more skinny narrow shoes. So I been Leaning towards the 2160 or 1130 but I do like the kayano they all are honestly on my list so I just need to pull the trigger and get a pair and start my Asics collections
very good video making
I would argue that the gel lyte 3 is the iconic model for the brand
I second this. Gel Lyte 3s paved the way for these new models.
Got and tried all. 1130 was most comfortable. Kayano 14 was half size big (because that's what was available) and it did not feel as comfortable. Still so cute though, I got the pink (because that's what was available lol) but thinking about returning.
In terms of material quality and comfort, is it Gel Kayano 14 or Gel NYC?
Asics should also release more Gel Kayano 5 360. They're also great pair.
Which is better For walking and more comfortable 1130 or kayano 14 ??
Gel-Sonoma 15-50 is also good
Yea great model as well
I tried a pair of the Anderson Bell collab in store and I wasn’t that happy with the comfort
For you youngins ASIC GEL sneakers is real old-school still got flavor
Only asics I own are the gel nyc I have 2 pairs now. I’m done for now until more colors drop
I got 3 pairs of ASICS and you can treat me a fool if I rank it by comfort:
1/ Gel Terrain
2/ gt 2160
3/ gel nyc
Ok, now I have to choose between the Kayano 14 and the Gel Nyc - found them for about the same price, which should I go for? Choices, choices...
Love the video! Do the 1130’s fit similar to the Gel-NYC’s? I’m looking to buy a pair and was curious if I can buy the same size as my NYC’s 🙏
Yea they both fit the same
Green knit shirt is fire bro, where is it from?
can you pls make some vids review the asics gel nimbus 26 vs the nike air pegasus 41 plsss
Hey josh, im wearing 9.5uk (28.5cm) mid cut nike blazer based on nike sizing. What size should i get for gel-nyc?
Ive look through the sizing and they are different. Your guide would really help. Thanks
which model can you recommend for daily running
NYC are the best hands down
I got my 1st pair of ASICS in 2012 for work. I recently got my 2nd pair, the pure silver kayano legacy. I went vegan and gave up fashion. I would wear dashikis and rope sandals or some low quality shoe just to validate my opinion well... I'm back now and I'm not vegan anymore and it's good to see ASICS getting recognition.

You had quite a journey
Its nice to see Asics hitting their stride, pun intended, because we're getting some really cool new things like their new skate line. Also, odd to hear that you need to go a half size up in most Asics, I wonder if that means you've only worn the popular lifestyle models because I've only ever needed a half size up in the Gel Lyte 3 or 5
Hi, which one is the best for wider feet, I tried kayano in store already 1 size higher and it was still tight.
I love GEL NYC. Love the style of Kayano 14 but my pinky toe feel uncomfortable with the plasticky material.
I just tried on the KAYANO 20 and I was able to go TTS. I normally 1/2 size up in Nike because of my wider forefoot. How do 20s fit for you?
1130
I only have nimbus 25. Confuse on other models 😅
Dağda da yürüyüş için hangi modelini alalım
Yeee love da Gel
What about the gel lyte series? 😮
Hey Josh, I’ve followed your sizing for some sneakers for some time now. Usually on point! I see the new Jordan 1 OG low black toe run big, have you gotten your hands on that pair?
My pair hasn’t arrived but usually for these 'OG' Jordan 1 lows they tend to run half size big
@@JoshDominic cool. Nike has them in stock here still in orlando Florida. Thanks for the info!
So dope .
which do you think is the most wide food friendly?
1130
Gel NYC ❤
the best are the gel sonoma
Comparing Asics Gel-NYC to nike P6000 what shoe is more comfortable? I'm considering buying one
Asics hands down
Gel NYC
Young people have finally discovered dad shoes.
thoughts on the asics x andersson bell gel-1090?
very cool
just bought my first asics nd i got tts. I'm hoping its not too narrow
Kayano14 🔥
I love the nyc...
Any advice on the GL3 GTX?
I go .5 up on the newer GL3 (slightly wider feet) but idk if the gore tex lining makes it worth going a full size up
I havent tried the goretex but I go half size up in all GL3s
How come gel lyte iii isn’t included?
whats the colorway of your kayano 14 and where to buy i dont find them
There is a glitch at around 1 minute
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Asics sizing for me is different. I’m wearing size 8us for my jordan 1s and other nike shoes. But 9us fits best for me on asics shoes. Weird.
People of Nike/Adidas, please stay where you are.
What about gel kinsei blast?
