FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running training?

These trainers are designed for stability and comfort during everyday activities and light athletic use. For serious or competitive running training, specialized running shoes might be more appropriate.

What materials are the ASICS GEL-1000 trainers made from?

The upper is made from synthetic leather and textile materials, providing breathability. The sole is rubber, and the shoe incorporates GEL technology for cushioning. Notably, parts of the shoe are made from recycled materials.

How do I clean my ASICS GEL-1000 trainers?

Clean the trainers using a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. It is recommended to air dry them naturally and avoid machine washing or using strong cleaning agents.

What does 'GEL technology' do?

GEL technology is ASICS' proprietary cushioning system located in the heel. It absorbs shock during impact, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on joints for enhanced comfort.

Yes, the ASICS GEL-1000 trainers are partially made from recycled materials, reflecting a commitment to environmental sustainability.

What is the intended age group for these shoes?

These trainers are designed for children and infants, as indicated by the available sizing (e.g., UK 5.5 child size).

Do these shoes come in adult sizes?

Based on the product information, these specific ASICS GEL-1000 trainers are intended for the children's and infant market and are typically available in corresponding youth sizes.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a more comfortable fit. If still too tight, check if the correct size has been selected.

Soles seem slippery

Ensure the rubber soles are clean and free from debris. The grip may be reduced on extremely smooth or wet surfaces. Break-in period might be needed for optimal traction.

Discomfort during wear

Check for any internal seams or tags that might be causing irritation. Ensure the socks worn are appropriate and do not bunch up. Allow a short break-in period.
