Full details
The ASICS Upcourt 6 GS trainers are designed for active kids participating in indoor multisport activities like volleyball, badminton, and squash. These shoes provide a vital balance of lightweight comfort and court-ready stability, featuring responsive cushioning and an outsole designed for high-traction surfaces; however, they are specifically engineered for indoor court use and may wear down quickly if used extensively on abrasive outdoor surfaces like concrete.

FAQs
Are these shoes good for running?
While comfortable, these are designed for lateral court movement, not the linear motion of long-distance running. They lack the specific cushioning needed for repetitive running impact.
Can these be used for P.E. class?
Yes, they are excellent for indoor P.E. classes, especially those involving gym sports like volleyball or basketball.
How do I ensure the right fit?
Ensure there is about a half-thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe to allow for natural movement during play.
Are they non-marking?
Yes, the rubber outsole is specifically designed to be non-marking for use on indoor court flooring.
How long should they last?
Durability depends on frequency of use, but with proper care and indoor-only use, they typically provide a full season of active play for school-aged children.
Troubleshooting
Trainer feels slippery on the court
Clean the outsole with a slightly damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and wax from the gym floor.
Build-up of interior odor
Remove the sockliner and sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside, or use a sports-specific shoe deodorizer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS Upcourt 6 GS trainers last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Usage: Use exclusively on indoor court surfaces to maintain outsole tread integrity.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after each use. Wipe the uppers with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Never machine wash or put them in a dryer, as heat can damage the midsole foam and adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the materials from becoming brittle.
- Air Out: Remove the insoles after intense play to allow moisture to escape and prevent odors.
