FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The ASICS Gel-Excite 10 GS trainers are designed with a standard fit. While the breathable mesh offers some flexibility, they may not be ideal for significantly wide feet without trying them on first.
How do I determine the correct UK size for my child?
Refer to the ASICS sizing chart or measure your child's foot from heel to the longest toe. Compare this measurement to the size guide provided for UK children's shoe sizes. It's often recommended to have a small amount of growing room.
Can these shoes be worn in wet conditions?
The mesh upper can absorb moisture, and the rubber sole offers some grip. However, they are not waterproof. For very wet conditions, consider specialized waterproof footwear.
What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?
The lifespan depends on the frequency and intensity of use. For active children, the durable construction aims to last through a school year or more of regular wear, but this can vary.
Does the purple color fade easily?
Proper care, including avoiding direct sunlight for prolonged periods and using mild cleaning agents, will help preserve the color. Fading is generally minimal with standard care practices.
Are these trainers good for long-distance running?
While they offer good cushioning for general use, they are primarily designed as trainers for everyday activities and light sports. For dedicated long-distance running, specialized running shoes with advanced cushioning and support might be more appropriate.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight.
Ensure the laces are loosened before putting the shoes on, and then re-tighten them to a comfortable fit. If the tightness persists, consider if the size is appropriate.
Reduced cushioning effect.
The GEL cushioning may take a few wears to break in. If the issue continues after several uses, check for any debris trapped in the sole or consider if the shoe has reached its lifespan for optimal cushioning.
Mesh upper appears dirty.
Wipe the mesh gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow to air dry completely.
