Product Information

Full details

The ASICS GEL-CITREK trainers are designed for young, active boys who need durable and comfortable footwear inspired by trail running styles. Their key benefit is the blend of rugged, tear-resistant construction with the comfort of GEL™ technology in the heel, offering a contemporary look for everyday wear. A potential consideration is that while inspired by trail shoes, they are best suited for general wear rather than extreme off-road conditions.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for actual trail running?

While inspired by trail shoe styles, the GEL-CITREK™ are best suited for general wear and light outdoor activities. For technical or demanding trail running, specialized footwear is recommended.

How do I clean the GEL-CITREK™ trainers?

Clean the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow to air dry. Avoid direct heat sources. The soles can be cleaned with a brush or damp cloth.

What makes the GEL™ technology beneficial?

The GEL™ technology in the heel provides enhanced shock absorption and cushioning, offering comfort during movement and reducing impact on the feet.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily made of mesh with durable, tear-resistant overlays and synthetic leather details.

Are these trainers available in adult sizes?

The GEL-CITREK™ series includes various models. This specific guide is for the children's version, but similar styles may be available in adult sizes.

How should I ensure the best fit for my child?

Check your child's foot measurement against the UK sizing guide. Ensure there is a little room for growth but not so much that the shoe is loose. Laces should be tied snugly but comfortably.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure laces are not over-tightened. If the shoe is genuinely too small, consider a larger size. The synthetic leather details may require a short break-in period.

Soles appear dirty

Wipe the soles with a damp cloth or a soft brush to remove dirt. For stubborn marks, use a small amount of mild soap and water.

Mesh material is snagged

The tear-resistant overlays offer protection, but if a significant snag occurs, avoid pulling at it. Minor snags may not affect performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers come ready to wear. Ensure the laces are appropriately tied for a secure fit before use.

Compatibility: Suitable for children's daily activities, including school, playground, and casual outings. Not intended for technical trail running or extreme sports.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and mud from the mesh and leather accents. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: Clean the outsole with a brush or damp cloth to remove debris. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the rubber.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials and shape of the shoe.
  4. Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning if heavily soiled. Wash by hand with mild soap and water, then air dry.
