Product Information
Full details
The ASICS GT-1000 trainers are designed for active kids who need a blend of support and comfort during daily activities and sports. These shoes provide a key stability benefit through the integrated DUOMAX support system, making them ideal for young athletes who require extra structural reinforcement. While they offer excellent performance, users should note that as a dedicated trainer, they are optimized for motion and may show wear faster if used exclusively for high-abrasion non-sport activities.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
Yes, the DUOMAX support system is designed to provide structural assistance that helps manage foot alignment, which can be beneficial for flat feet.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and cushioning properties of the shoe. Hand washing is recommended.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, they feature a breathable mesh upper designed for ventilation, meaning they are not waterproof.
How often should I replace these trainers?
It is generally recommended to replace trainers every 300-500 miles of use or if the outsole tread is visibly worn down.
Is the insole removable?
Yes, the standard insole is typically removable if you need to insert custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after a long day
Feet naturally swell during activity. Loosen the laces slightly or ensure the child is wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks.
Loss of traction
Check the outsole for lodged debris or dirt. Clean with a damp cloth to restore the grip of the rubber.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS GT-1000 trainers, it is important to maintain them correctly.
- Fitting: Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between the toes and the front of the shoe to allow for growth and movement.
- Lacing: Use the eyelets to secure a snug fit that doesn't restrict circulation.
- Cleaning: Hand wash the shoes using a soft brush, mild soap, and cold water. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can degrade the midsole cushioning and adhesive bonds.
- Air Dry: Always air dry the shoes in a shaded, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heaters.
