FAQs
How do I know if I've selected the right size for my child?
The GT-1000 14 GS features a size-checking sockliner. Place your child's foot on the sockliner to visually confirm if the length is appropriate and if there is sufficient growing room.
Are these shoes suitable for all types of sports?
These trainers are designed for versatile use including running, multisport activities, and general active play. They are not intended for high-impact sports such as basketball or intense court games that require specialized lateral support.
How is the cushioning designed for children's feet?
The shoes incorporate Rearfoot GEL Technology, which is specifically placed to attenuate shock. This provides comfortable cushioning during daily activities and running, helping to protect young joints.
What does 'GS' stand for in the product name?
GS typically stands for 'Grade School', indicating that this model is designed for children in that age and size range.
How do I clean these trainers?
Clean with a soft brush or damp cloth using mild soap and cool water. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing.
What is the environmental benefit of these shoes?
The upper is constructed with at least 75% recycled materials, and the insole utilizes a solution dyeing process. These measures help reduce water consumption and carbon emissions during manufacturing.
Can these trainers be worn with orthotics?
The removable EVA insole may allow space for some slim orthotic inserts. However, it is recommended to try them with the orthotic to ensure a proper fit and comfort, as very thick orthotics might alter the shoe's fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing system. If the shoe is consistently too tight or loose despite lacing adjustments, a different size may be required. Utilize the size-checking sockliner to confirm proper fit.
Tread wear on the sole.
Inspect the sole for normal wear and tear. The wraparound forefoot sole and rubber toe seam are designed for durability, but heavy use will eventually show wear. For significant damage, consider replacement.
Breathability seems limited.
Ensure the mesh upper is clean and free of debris. If the shoe has become wet, allow it to air dry completely. Consider the ambient temperature and activity level.
