Nike “velvet”

The GEL-NYC™ sneaker sources inspiration from heritage and modern performance running styles.

Its upper construction references the GEL-NIMBUS® 3 shoe from the early 2000s and blends it with various embellishments from the MC-PLUS V design.

The tooling contrasts the upper's retro influences by using the GEL-CUMULUS® 16 shoe's tooling system. Through a combination of lightweight foams and GEL® technology inserts, this midsole formation helps create advanced underfoot comfort.
