FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The ASICS Gel-Excite 10 GS trainers are designed with a standard width. While the mesh upper offers some flexibility, they may not be ideal for children with significantly wide feet. It is recommended to try them on if possible or consult sizing charts carefully.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
The best way is to measure your child's foot from heel to the longest toe and compare it with the ASICS sizing chart. Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe for growth and comfort.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials, especially the cushioning and adhesives. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method for cleaning.

Are these waterproof?
No, the ASICS Gel-Excite 10 GS trainers are not waterproof. They are designed with breathable mesh uppers, which allow air circulation but do not provide protection against water.
What age group are these trainers best suited for?
These trainers are categorized for kids and are suitable for various ages within childhood, depending on foot size and activity level. The 'GS' designation often indicates 'Grade School'.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Check if the laces are tied too tightly. Loosen them and retie for a more comfortable fit. Ensure the correct size has been purchased, as fit can vary.
Discomfort after wearing
Allow a break-in period of a few wears. Ensure socks are appropriate for athletic shoes. Verify the shoe size and width are correct for the child's foot.
Excessive sweating or odor
Ensure the breathable mesh is not obstructed. Use moisture-wicking socks. Clean the insoles and allow shoes to air out completely between wears.
Sole detaching
Inspect the area for damage. Minor separation may be repairable by a shoe repair professional. Contact customer support if the shoes are still under warranty.
