FAQs

What does 'GS' in the product name stand for?

'GS' stands for 'Grade School,' indicating that these shoes are specifically designed and sized for children in elementary and middle school.

Are these shoes suitable for outdoor sports?

While durable, the ASICS Upcourt 6 GS is primarily designed for indoor court sports and activities. The sole's grip and upper materials are optimized for indoor surfaces and may wear differently or offer less protection on rough outdoor terrain.

How do I determine the correct size for my child?

We recommend measuring your child's foot length and comparing it to the ASICS UK size chart. It's best to try shoes on towards the end of the day when feet are slightly larger and wear the type of socks your child uses for sports.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the shoe's materials and construction. Please follow the care instructions provided, which suggest hand-cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air drying.

What types of sports are these shoes best for?

The ASICS Upcourt 6 GS is ideal for various indoor court sports such as volleyball, badminton, squash, pickleball, and general gym classes or activities requiring agility and comfortable foot support.

Is there arch support in these shoes?

The shoes are designed for a comfortable fit for young athletes. Info needed: Specific details on arch support levels are not provided in the product description. The default insole provides standard support, but custom orthotics can be used if needed and space allows.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel uncomfortable or too tight/loose.

Ensure the correct size has been selected, as children's feet grow quickly. Try adjusting the lacing pattern or wearing different thickness socks. If discomfort persists, consider trying a different size.

Foot odor develops after wearing.

Remove insoles after use to allow them to air out. Consider using foot powder or shoe deodorizers. Ensure socks are clean and breathable. If possible, alternate between two pairs of shoes to allow each pair to fully dry.

Mesh upper shows signs of wear or tearing.

While the mesh is designed for flexibility and breathability, excessive friction or sharp impacts can cause damage. Inspect the environment where the shoes are used for abrasive surfaces. Proper cleaning and avoiding rough handling can prolong the lifespan. Info needed: Not designed for high-abrasion activities like aggressive outdoor use.

Lack of grip on court surface.

Ensure the shoe soles are clean and free of dirt or debris, which can reduce traction. Wipe soles with a damp cloth if necessary. Check the court surface for dust or excessive wax. The shoes are designed for indoor court surfaces, and performance may vary on different types of flooring.

These shoes are compatible with a wide range of indoor court surfaces. They are specifically designed for 'Grade School' age children, so verify the UK size for the best fit. To care for your Upcourt 6 GS shoes: 1. Cleaning: Gently wipe any dirt or dust from the mesh and synthetic overlays using a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals. 2. Drying: Air dry shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage materials. Do not machine wash or tumble dry. 3. Odor Control: Remove insoles periodically to air out and consider using shoe deodorizers or baking soda to absorb moisture and odors. 4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain shoe integrity.
