ASICS Upcourt 6 GS - White - 3 UK

'GS' typically stands for 'Grade School,' indicating that these shoes are designed and sized for children and young athletes.

No, the ASICS Upcourt 6 GS shoes are specifically designed for indoor court sports. The outsole material and tread pattern are optimized for indoor surfaces and may wear out quickly or provide inadequate grip if used outdoors.

We recommend hand-cleaning with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap for external surfaces. Remove insoles for separate washing and air drying. Do not machine wash or use harsh cleaning agents, as this can damage the shoe's materials and construction.

Yes, the insoles in most ASICS shoes, including the Upcourt 6 GS, are typically removable, allowing you to replace them with custom orthotics or preferred aftermarket insoles for personalized comfort and support. Always check by removing the factory insole first.

These shoes are primarily designed for indoor court sports that require quick movements, lateral stability, and good grip. They are ideal for volleyball, badminton, squash, and similar athletic activities.

The insole's paste dyeing process significantly reduces water usage during manufacturing, contributing to a more environmentally friendly production. While its primary benefit is ecological, it maintains the same comfort and performance standards as traditional insoles.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks designed for breathability. Check that the laces are not tied too tightly. The mesh inserts are designed for ventilation, but extended play or tight lacing can still cause heat buildup. Consider taking short breaks to air your feet.

First, re-adjust the laces to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. If the issue persists, verify that you have the correct shoe size. Refer to the ASICS size chart, as fit can vary slightly between models and brands. Trying them on with your typical athletic socks is also recommended.

Clean the outsoles thoroughly to remove any dirt, dust, or residue that might be reducing traction. Use a damp cloth to wipe the bottom of the shoes. If the outsoles appear worn smooth, it may be time to consider replacing your shoes, as traction is critical for indoor court sports.

Remove the insoles and air out the shoes after each use. You can also sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes and on the insoles overnight to absorb odors, then shake it out. Wash insoles gently by hand with mild soap and water, then air dry completely. Consider using anti-odor shoe sprays or inserts.

While the toe and heel sections are reinforced for durability, extreme and continuous friction or dragging can still lead to wear over time. Ensure proper footwork techniques to minimize excessive dragging. Regularly inspect these areas for early signs of wear and consider rotating between pairs of shoes if you play frequently.
