Drawing inspiration from heritage and modern performance running styles, the Gel-NYC 2.0 GTX sneaker features an upper construction that references the 2000 Gel-1050 model. The design incorporates a GORE-TEX® membrane to assist in keeping feet dry during wet conditions. Tooling elements draw on the Gel-1050 and Gel-Lyte DS II outsole. The midsole integrates a TRUSSTIC support unit, GEL technology inserts, and FF BLAST PLUS cushioning to provide a lightweight and comfortable feel. waterproof membrane lining shock-attenuating midsole material foam cushioning walking-specific flex grooves stability-enhancing construction angled heel
