FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for school gym class?
While they are designed for tennis, the non-marking properties and stability features make them a functional choice for most indoor school gym activities.
Can these be machine washed?
No, it is recommended to clean them by hand using a damp cloth and mild soap to avoid damaging the specialized cushioning materials.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The fit is generally standard for youth tennis shoes; however, the adjustable fastening system allows for some flexibility in securing the foot.
How often should I replace these shoes?
Depending on usage frequency, if you notice significant thinning of the tread or the cushioning feels less responsive, it is time for a replacement.
Is this model specifically for girls?
This specific variant is listed as a girls' model, though the design features are consistent with the high performance required for all young tennis players.
Troubleshooting
Fastening system is loose during play
Ensure that the fasteners are securely locked and aligned correctly to maintain consistent tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS GEL-Dedicate 9 GS trainers, follow these care steps:
- Routine Cleaning: After each use, wipe away loose dirt from the outsole using a soft brush to maintain traction.
- Moisture Management: If the shoes become wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place to prevent odor buildup and maintain the integrity of the cushioning foam.
- Fit Check: Periodically ensure the fastening system is not being overtightened, which can hinder blood circulation during play.
