FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for sports like football or basketball?
The GT-1000 14 PS trainers are designed for general active use and training. For specialized sports with lateral movements or specific traction needs, dedicated sports shoes are recommended.
How do I use the size checker on the sockliner?
The sockliner has markings indicating the correct size. Place your child's foot on the sockliner to see if it aligns with the correct size indicator.
What is the benefit of the GEL technology?
The GEL technology in the heel provides excellent shock absorption, cushioning impacts during running and jumping, which helps to protect young feet.
How much recycled material is used in these shoes?
At least 75% of the shoe's main upper material is made with recycled content to reduce waste and carbon emissions.
Can these shoes be washed in a washing machine?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method for cleaning.
What is the primary advantage of the EVA sockliner?
The EVA sockliner provides additional cushioning performance and moisture management, contributing to a cooler and dryer environment inside the shoe.
How durable are the toe rubber stitch features?
The toe rubber stitch is designed to improve durability, making the shoe more resilient to wear and tear from running and playing, especially for active children.
Troubleshooting
Hook and loop closure not sticking well
Ensure the hook and loop surfaces are clean and free of lint or dirt. Gently brush the surfaces with a stiff brush if needed.
Shoes appear too small or large
Use the size checker on the sockliner to confirm the fit. Consult the ASICS sizing guide if unsure.
Discomfort during wear
Ensure the shoes are properly tied/fastened. Check for any internal seams or debris causing irritation. Allow a short break-in period if the shoes are new.
