FAQs

What age group are these trainers suitable for?

These trainers are specifically designed for kids and infants, indicated by the 'PS' (Preschool) designation in the model name. They are suitable for young children who are active and require comfortable, supportive footwear for running and play.

How do I clean the ASICS GT-1000 14 PS Trainers?

Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing or drying.

Are these shoes good for everyday wear or just running?

These trainers are versatile and suitable for both running and everyday wear. The cushioning and lightweight design provide comfort for a variety of activities, from sports to casual outings.

What is the main benefit of the EVA cushioning?

The EVA cushioning provides excellent shock absorption, reducing the impact on a child's feet and joints during running and jumping, leading to enhanced comfort.

How does the hook and loop closure work?

The hook and loop closure consists of two strips, one with hooks and one with loops, that fasten together. This system allows for a quick, adjustable, and secure fit that children can often manage themselves.

Can these shoes be used for cross-training activities?

While primarily designed for running, the supportive and lightweight nature of these trainers makes them suitable for many general cross-training activities and sports where agility and comfort are key.

What does 'PS' stand for in GT-1000 14 PS?

In ASICS naming conventions, 'PS' typically stands for 'Preschool', indicating that these shoes are designed for younger children who are typically in the preschool age range.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the child's foot measurement. Adjust the hook and loop straps for a secure but comfortable fit. Refer to sizing charts if unsure.

Child experiences discomfort during activity.

Verify the shoe size and fit. Check for any internal seams or debris that might be causing irritation. Ensure the shoes are appropriate for the activity being performed.

Traction seems poor on certain surfaces.

Check the outsole for excessive wear or debris. Clean the outsole treads. Ensure the shoes are not being used on surfaces they are not designed for.

Hook and loop closure not holding securely.

Ensure the hook and loop surfaces are clean and free of lint or debris. Rub the hook and loop together gently to improve adhesion. If worn out, consider replacement.
