Full details

Their key benefit is the combination of reliable cushioning and durable construction, offering great value for young, growing feet.

FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for cross-country running?

The Gel-Excite 11 trainers are primarily designed for road running and general athletic activities. While they offer good grip on most surfaces, they may not provide the specialized traction needed for challenging cross-country terrain.

How do I ensure I order the correct size?

It's best to check the UK size displayed on the product itself. If unsure, measure your child's foot and compare it to the ASICS size guide, paying close attention to the UK sizing. Note that packaging might show different international size conversions (US/Euro).

Can these shoes be machine washed?

No, we do not recommend machine washing these trainers. Cleaning with a damp cloth and air drying is the best method to maintain their structure and cushioning.

What is the main benefit of the GEL cushioning?

The GEL cushioning in the sole is designed to absorb shock effectively, reducing stress on your child's feet and joints during impact, such as when running or jumping.

Are these trainers waterproof?

These trainers are not waterproof. They feature a breathable synthetic upper designed for ventilation, not water resistance. They are suitable for dry conditions and light rain, but not for submersion in water.

What age group are these trainers intended for?

These are children's trainers (kids' range), designed for young runners and active children.

How durable is the outsole?

The rubber outsole is designed for durable support and consistent road wear, making it suitable for regular use in athletic activities and daily wear.

Troubleshooting

Sizing seems incorrect

Refer to the UK sizing on the product itself or consult a sizing chart. Be aware that box or label may display US or European sizes which differ from UK sizes.

Laces keep coming undone

Ensure laces are tied securely. Consider learning a double knot for extra security during high-activity play.

Shoes feel stiff initially

This is normal for new shoes. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in gradually. The GEL cushioning will become more responsive with use.

Poor grip on wet surfaces

The outsole is designed for general road use. For very wet or slippery conditions, extra caution may be needed. Ensure the outsole is free from debris for optimal traction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cushioning for comfort and impact protection.
  • Durable construction suitable for regular use.
  • Breathable materials enhance comfort during activity.
  • Adjustable lacing provides a secure and personalized fit.
  • Versatile for running, school, and general play.

Cons

  • Sizing can sometimes be confusing due to international conversions on packaging.
  • Primarily designed for road running; may not be ideal for technical trails.
  • Limited color options compared to some other ranges.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure the correct fit by having the child try them on, paying attention to the UK size. The lace-up closure allows for easy adjustment.

Compatibility: Ideal for road running, general athletic activities, school sports, and casual wear. They are designed for children's feet and are suitable for unisex use.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the trainers clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking them in water, as this can damage the materials and cushioning.
  2. Drying: Air dry the trainers naturally. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can warp or degrade the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and condition.
