FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor running?
The ASICS UPCOURT 6 GS trainers are primarily designed for indoor multisport activities. While they can handle light outdoor use, they are not optimized for the demands of regular outdoor running, which requires more robust cushioning and tread.
How do I know if I've chosen the correct size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure, and the midfoot should not feel squeezed.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.
What is the main difference between the UPCOURT 6 and other ASICS trainers?
The UPCOURT 6 is designed as a versatile, lightweight trainer for general court sports and daily activities, prioritizing flexibility and comfort. More specialized ASICS trainers may offer enhanced features for specific sports like running or professional basketball.
How durable is the rubber outsole?
The rubber outsole is designed for good traction and durability on indoor surfaces. For extended use on abrasive outdoor surfaces, wear and tear may be accelerated.
What does 'GS' stand for in UPCOURT 6 GS?
GS typically stands for 'Grade School', indicating that this model is designed for younger children who are past the toddler stage but not yet in adult sizes.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and adjust them for a more relaxed fit. Ensure the correct size has been purchased. The mesh may also need a few wears to fully adapt to the foot.
Traction is poor on court
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free of dust or debris. Court surfaces should be clean and dry. If the shoes are significantly worn, consider replacement.
Discomfort during activity
Check the lacing for tightness. Ensure the correct sock type is being worn. The cushioning system may require a short break-in period.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt and grime. For the mesh areas, a soft brush can be used gently.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, which can damage the materials.
