The ASICS Gel-Dedicate 8 GS are designed for court sports and offer excellent support and cushioning for lateral movements. While they can handle short bursts of running on a court, they are not ideal for dedicated road running or long-distance running due to their specific construction.
Wipe the synthetic leather with a damp cloth. For more persistent dirt, use a mild soap mixed with water and a soft brush or cloth. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.
GEL technology is ASICS' signature cushioning system. It's strategically placed in the midsole to absorb shock during impact, providing comfort and reducing the stress on joints during athletic activity.
TRUSSTIC technology is a support system located in the midfoot of the shoe. It helps to control pronation and provides torsional rigidity, enhancing stability and preventing the foot from twisting excessively during movement.
Yes, these shoes are durable and comfortable enough for general active play, provided the ground surface is not overly abrasive.
These are GS (Grade School) models, designed for children and young athletes.
Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing thinner athletic socks. Loosen the laces and re-tie them, focusing on distributing pressure evenly.
The shoes may require a break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Movement and flexing will help soften the cushioning.
Verify that the shoes are being used on their intended surfaces (courts). Using them on rougher, abrasive surfaces will accelerate wear. Clean the soles after use to remove debris that could cause damage.
Check the lacing pattern. Try a different lacing technique to alleviate pressure points. Ensure the width of the shoe is appropriate for your foot.
Setup: These trainers are ready to wear right out of the box. Ensure the correct size is selected for optimal fit and comfort. It's recommended to try them on with the type of socks typically worn for sports.
Compatibility: The ASICS Gel-Dedicate 8 GS are designed primarily for indoor court sports such as tennis, squash, and badminton. They are also suitable for general athletic training on appropriate surfaces. They are not recommended for trail running or prolonged use on abrasive surfaces like concrete or asphalt.
Care: To maintain the condition of your trainers:
