FAQs
What age group is the GT-1000 13 PS designed for?
The 'PS' in the model name stands for pre-school, indicating these trainers are designed for younger children who are past the toddler stage and entering their pre-school years.
How does the GEL technology benefit my child?
The GEL technology provides shock absorption, cushioning impact during activities like running and jumping. This helps to keep your child's feet comfortable and reduces stress on their joints throughout the day.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
While the hook and loop closure offers some adjustability, the GT-1000 13 PS is designed with a standard fit. If your child has particularly wide feet, it's recommended to try them on to ensure a comfortable fit.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoe. It is best to clean them using a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
How do I know if I've chosen the correct size?
Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between the child's longest toe and the front of the shoe when they are standing. The heel should feel secure without slipping.
What makes these trainers more durable?
The GT-1000 13 PS features a medial forefoot wrap-up outsole and a toe rubber stitch. These elements are specifically added to enhance the shoe's resistance to wear and tear from active use.
Troubleshooting
Hook and loop strap not sticking
Ensure the strap and the corresponding surface are clean and free from dirt, lint, or debris. Try pressing firmly to re-establish the hold.
Shoe appears too tight or causes discomfort
Verify that the correct UK size has been selected. Adjust the hook and loop strap to a less restrictive setting. Ensure the child's socks are not too thick.
Tread wear on the outsole
Some wear is normal with active use. However, if excessive wear is noticed quickly, ensure the child is not using the shoes for activities that cause undue abrasion, such as dragging feet.

Care: To maintain the quality and longevity of the shoes:
