FAQs
What age group are these trainers suitable for?
These are junior trainers, designed for children. The specific size relates to UK children's foot sizing.
Are these suitable for competitive running?
While inspired by running shoes, the GEL-NYC Junior Trainers are best suited for casual wear and light athletic activities rather than competitive, high-impact running.
How do I clean the mesh and suede parts?
For the mesh, use a damp cloth. For the suede overlays, use a soft brush to remove dry dirt, and consider a suede cleaner for stains. Avoid washing machines.
What is the main benefit of the GEL technology?
The Rearfoot GEL technology provides excellent shock absorption, cushioning the impact on your child's heel during movement, making it comfortable for extended wear.
How can I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the ASICS sizing guide and measure your child's foot. Ensure there is a little room at the toe for growth, but not so much that the foot slides around.
What is the material composition?
The trainers feature a combination of leather and textile (mesh) for the upper, with a synthetic sole.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the shoes are slightly snug, wear them with thin socks initially, or consider using a shoe stretcher for leather components.
Discomfort after extended wear
Verify that the size is appropriate. Ensure the laces are tied correctly, providing a snug but not overly tight fit. The GEL cushioning is designed for comfort, but extreme activity might require specialized footwear.
Traction feels reduced
Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris that might be hindering grip. Check for excessive wear on the tread pattern.
Material scuffs easily
Leather and suede overlays can be prone to scuffs. Use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner periodically. For minor scuffs, a soft brush can sometimes help.
