FAQs
How do I check if the shoes fit correctly?
Utilize the size-checking sockliner. Have the child stand on the sockliner and check if their longest toe aligns with the front marker, or ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe when worn inside the trainer.
Are these shoes suitable for running competitions?
The GT-1000 14 GS is designed for general athletic activities and training. For competitive running, specialized running shoes might offer performance-oriented features.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh scrubbing, which could damage the material. Allow to air dry.
What is the benefit of the recycled materials used?
Using recycled materials in the upper reduces waste and lowers the environmental impact of manufacturing the shoes. The insole's dyeing process also conserves water and reduces carbon emissions.
Can these trainers be worn for casual everyday use?
Yes, the GT-1000 14 GS is designed for versatility and comfort, making them ideal for casual everyday wear in addition to sports activities.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is flat.
What type of fastener do these shoes have?
These shoes feature a lace-up fastener.
Troubleshooting
Laces come undone frequently.
Ensure laces are tied using a secure double knot. Consider replacing laces with a type that offers better grip if the issue persists.
Child complains of discomfort.
Verify the shoe size using the sockliner. Ensure the laces are adjusted for a snug but not overly tight fit. Check for any internal seams or debris causing irritation.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces.
The rubber outsole provides reliable traction, but performance can be reduced on very wet or slippery surfaces. Clean the outsole of any debris that might affect grip.
