FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
The GT-1000 14 PS trainers are designed for general active play and daily wear. They offer good comfort and cushioning but are not specialized for high-impact or specific sports.
How do I determine the correct size for my child?
It is recommended to measure your child's foot and compare it with the ASICS sizing chart. Some models may include a size checker on the sockliner for additional guidance.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method to maintain the integrity and shape of the shoe.
What is the benefit of the GEL technology?
The GEL technology in the heel provides excellent shock attenuation, absorbing impact during movement and offering enhanced cushioning for comfort.
How durable are the toe and outsole?
The shoes feature a medial forefoot wrap-up outsole and toe rubber stitching specifically designed to improve durability and withstand the wear and tear of active children.
Do these shoes use sustainable materials?
Yes, the main upper material is made with at least 75% recycled content, and the sockliner is produced using a dyeing process that significantly reduces water usage and carbon emissions.
What is the closure system?
The trainers use a hook and loop closure system, which allows for a quick, secure, and easy fit that children can manage themselves.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or too loose.
Adjust the hook and loop straps for a secure fit. If the overall fit is incorrect, re-check the sizing against the child's foot. Use the size checker on the sockliner for guidance.
Foot feels uncomfortable or sore after wear.
Ensure the correct size has been selected. Check for any internal seams or debris that might be causing irritation. Allow a short break-in period if the shoes are brand new.
Tread appears worn quickly.
This can occur with very active children. Ensure the shoes are being used for their intended purpose (general active play) and not for specialized sports with high-abrasion requirements.
Material appears dirty or stained.
Gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. For stubborn stains on the mesh, a soft brush can be used cautiously. Always allow to air dry.
