FAQs
What age group are these trainers designed for?
These trainers are specifically designed for kids, with this particular model (UK 6) suitable for boys.
Are these shoes suitable for competitive sports?
The ASICS Gel-Excite 10 GS trainers are best suited for general athletic activities, everyday wear, and light training. They are not specialized for high-impact or competitive sports that require advanced support or specific performance features.
How do I know if I've selected the right size?
Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the width should allow for comfort without pinching.
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 mild soap and water, followed by air drying, is the preferred method for cleaning.
What is the main benefit of the GEL technology in these shoes?
The GEL technology integrated into the midsole enhances impact absorption, providing a softer sensation and reducing shock on the feet during movement.
How durable is the rubber sole?
The rubber sole is designed to be sturdy and durable, offering reliable traction and wear resistance for everyday use and various activities.

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure the correct size was purchased. Loosen the laces and try re-tying them, distributing pressure evenly. If still uncomfortable, consider breaking them in with short periods of wear.
Traction is poor on wet surfaces
The rubber sole provides good grip, but performance on very wet surfaces can vary. Ensure the sole is clean of mud or debris. For significantly wet conditions, consider shoes with specialized wet-traction patterns if available.
Mesh upper appears dirty or stained
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher stains, a soft-bristled brush may be used gently. Always rinse with a clean damp cloth and air dry.
Shoes feel less cushioned after extended use
The cushioning is designed to be durable. If the cushioning feels reduced, ensure the insoles are properly seated. If the shoes have been worn extensively, the cushioning may naturally decrease over time, and it may be time to consider a replacement.
