FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The GT-1000 14 GS is designed with a child-specific last that accommodates growing feet, offering a generally comfortable fit. However, individual foot width can vary. It's recommended to try them on for the best assessment of width compatibility.
How do I check if my child's feet have grown out of the shoes?
These trainers include a size-checking sockliner. You can remove the insole and place your child's foot on it to see if there is adequate space at the toe. A thumb's width of space is generally recommended.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended. Cleaning should be done by spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Allow them to air dry naturally.
What is the main benefit of the GEL technology in these shoes?
The rearfoot GEL Technology is designed to attenuate shock during impact, providing enhanced cushioning and a more comfortable feel for children's feet during daily activities and running.
Are these shoes good for running or just casual wear?
These are versatile trainers designed for running, multisport activities, and general casual wear, offering a balance of support, cushioning, and durability suitable for active children.
What makes the upper material environmentally friendly?
At least 75% of the main upper material is made from recycled content, contributing to waste reduction and a lower carbon footprint.
What is the heel height of these trainers?
The GT-1000 14 GS trainers have a flat heel height.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or too loose
Use the size-checking sockliner to confirm fit. Adjust the laces to ensure a secure yet comfortable fit. If the shoe is consistently uncomfortable, re-evaluate the size or fit for your child's foot shape.
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied with a double knot. Consider replacing laces with a type that offers better grip if the issue persists.
Soles appear worn down quickly
Ensure the shoes are being used for their intended purpose (running, multisport, casual wear). For very high-impact activities, consider a shoe model specifically designed for that sport. Clean regularly to remove abrasive debris.
