Full details
The ASICS Upcourt 6 GS trainers are designed for active kids who participate in versatile indoor sports like volleyball, badminton, or court-based gym classes. These shoes provide a key benefit of excellent court traction and responsive cushioning, helping young athletes move with confidence. One caveat is that these trainers are specifically engineered for indoor surfaces and may wear down quickly if used extensively on abrasive outdoor concrete or asphalt.

FAQs
Can these be used for outdoor sports?
While they can be worn outdoors, the rubber compound is optimized for indoor surfaces. Using them on rough outdoor concrete will significantly reduce the lifespan of the outsole.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and cushioning properties. We recommend spot cleaning with a soft cloth and mild soap.
Do these provide enough support for volleyball?
Yes, the Upcourt 6 GS is specifically designed to support the lateral movements and jumping requirements common in volleyball.
Is the sizing consistent with other ASICS shoes?
Generally, yes. If your child wears other ASICS models, you can typically stick with the same size, but always reference the UK size chart for precision.
What should I do if the shoes get wet?
Stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and let them air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming untied during play
Double-knot the laces or swap for textured athletic laces that provide more friction.
Reduced traction on the court
Wipe the bottom of the soles with a slightly damp towel to remove dust buildup that can make the rubber slippery.
Foot discomfort or pressure points
Check if the laces are too tight over the mid-foot; try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'box' or 'parallel' style to alleviate pressure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS Upcourt 6 GS trainers maintain their performance, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: Ensure a thumb-width of space between the big toe and the end of the shoe for proper growth room.
- Cleaning: Wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth after play to remove dust and court debris. Avoid machine washing or drying, which can damage the EVA foam.
- Drying: Air dry naturally at room temperature. Never place shoes near heaters or radiators, as extreme heat can warp the materials and affect the glue bonds.
- Surface Compatibility: Strictly limit use to indoor sports surfaces like wood, synthetic tiles, or rubberized gym flooring to prolong the life of the outsole.
