FAQs
What does 'GS' in the product name signify?
'GS' typically stands for 'Grade School,' indicating that the shoe is designed for children in elementary to middle school age ranges, offering sizes suitable for younger feet.
Are these sneakers suitable for daily school wear?
Yes, with their focus on comfort, durability, and breathability, the ASICS Upcourt 6 GS sneakers are well-suited for daily school wear and various active play activities.
How do I clean the mesh material?
To clean the mesh, gently wipe it with a soft cloth or sponge dampened with cool water and a small amount of mild, non-abrasive soap. Avoid scrubbing too hard to prevent damage to the material.
Does the eco-friendly insole affect performance or comfort?
No, the eco-friendly paste dyeing process for the insole is designed to reduce water usage without compromising on the comfort, support, or performance of the shoe's insole.
Is the sizing true to UK standards for children?
ASICS typically adheres to standard UK sizing. However, foot shapes can vary, so it's always recommended to measure your child's foot and refer to the ASICS size chart if available, or try them on to ensure the best fit.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these sneakers. The harsh cycles and detergents can damage the materials, adhesives, and structural integrity of the shoe. Hand cleaning as described in the care section is preferred.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Ensure the correct size has been purchased. Adjust the lacing system for a more customized fit – loosen for more room or tighten for a snugger feel. Always try shoes on with the type of socks typically worn.
Foot discomfort or rubbing.
Check socks for proper fit and material. Ensure laces are not too tight over the instep. Allow for a break-in period; if discomfort persists, consult a shoe fitting specialist.
Shoes develop an odor after use.
The mesh inserts help with breathability, but active feet can still cause odor. Always air out shoes thoroughly after each wear. Remove insoles (if possible) for better ventilation. Consider using shoe deodorizers or baking soda.
Visible wear on the toe or heel areas.
The toe and heel cups are reinforced for durability. While designed to be tough, excessive dragging or impact can still cause wear. Regular cleaning can help maintain the material's integrity and appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

- Have the child try on both shoes, ensuring there is about a thumb's width space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.

Care:
To maintain the longevity and appearance of your ASICS Upcourt 6 GS sneakers:
