Product Information

Full details

The ASICS Gel-Excite 11 GS trainers are designed for active kids, offering a supportive and comfortable fit for school sports, playground adventures, and casual wear. Their key benefit lies in the combination of GEL™ cushioning and a non-slip sole for reliable performance. A potential caveat is to ensure correct sizing, as the box or label may display different international size formats (US/Euro) than the UK size purchased.

FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The Gel-Excite 11 GS trainers are designed with a standard fit. While they offer a supportive structure, they may not be ideal for children with significantly wide feet. It's recommended to try them on for a proper assessment.

How do I ensure I'm ordering the correct UK size?

Please refer to the size selection menu for the UK size. Note that the size printed on the shoe box or label may show equivalent US or EU sizes, but the product itself corresponds to the UK size you ordered.

Can these trainers be worn for specific sports like basketball?

These trainers are best suited for general running, school sports, and everyday activities. For specialized sports requiring specific ankle support or grip, dedicated sports shoes might be more appropriate.

What is the main advantage of the GEL™ cushioning?

The GEL™ cushioning provides superior shock absorption, reducing the impact on joints and offering a more comfortable experience during running, jumping, and general physical activity.

How durable is the synthetic upper?

The synthetic upper is designed for durability to withstand the rigors of children's daily activities. It is resistant to wear and tear from typical playground and sports use.

Can these trainers be cleaned in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and the cushioning system. Cleaning with a damp cloth and air drying is the preferred method.

Troubleshooting

Sizing seems incorrect compared to box label

Verify the UK size you intended to purchase. The box or label might display equivalent US or European sizing. Refer to the product details or an ASICS sizing chart if unsure.

Reduced grip on surfaces

Clean the rubber sole thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any dirt, mud, or debris that might be hindering traction.

Discomfort during activity

Ensure the trainers are laced correctly for a snug, supportive fit. If discomfort persists, ensure the size is appropriate for the child's foot length and width.
