ASICS GEL-NYC Junior - Brown - Size: 3

The ASICS GEL-NYC Junior sneakers are primarily designed for urban adventures and everyday casual wear, offering comfort and support for walking and light activity. While they incorporate GEL technology for cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-performance running or specialized sports. For intensive athletic pursuits, we recommend ASICS' dedicated performance footwear lines.

For best results and to preserve the suede, use a specialized suede brush to gently remove loose dirt and dust. For minor scuffs, a suede eraser can be effective. For more stubborn stains, a suede cleaning solution can be applied according to its instructions. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first to avoid discoloration or damage.

ASICS GEL technology is a proprietary cushioning system strategically placed in the midsole of the shoe. It's designed to absorb impact and provide advanced shock attenuation during foot strike and toe-off. For junior feet, this translates to enhanced comfort, reduced strain, and protection against the repetitive impacts of walking, running, and playing on hard urban surfaces.

The ASICS GEL-NYC Junior sneakers feature a breathable mesh and suede upper. They are not waterproof. While they can handle light splashes and dry conditions well, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or very wet environments may lead to water penetration. We recommend avoiding very wet conditions to maintain the shoe's integrity and your child's comfort.

ASICS shoes generally run true to size, but fit can vary slightly between models and individuals. We recommend consulting the ASICS size chart to find the appropriate UK junior size. For the most accurate fit, especially for growing feet, it's always best to measure your child's foot and compare it to the size guide.

For optimal comfort, breathability, and moisture management, we recommend wearing athletic socks made from breathable, moisture-wicking materials (like synthetic blends) with these sneakers. Avoid thick cotton socks, which can retain moisture and lead to discomfort or blisters.

Ensure you have the correct size. Check your lacing; it should be snug but not too tight. Make sure you are wearing appropriate socks for cushioning and moisture-wicking, as thin or ill-fitting socks can contribute to discomfort.

While the rubber outsole provides good grip, no shoe is entirely slip-proof on all wet surfaces. Always exercise caution in damp conditions. Check the outsole for excessive wear or embedded debris (like mud or small stones) and clean the tread if necessary to restore optimal traction.

Use a soft-bristle brush or a specialized suede eraser to gently remove dirt and minor scuffs. For deeper stains, you may need to use a suede-specific cleaning product, following its instructions carefully. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first to prevent damage.

Although the upper features breathable mesh, individual comfort can vary. Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking socks, which help to draw sweat away from the skin. Also, allow your shoes to air out completely between wears to keep them fresh and dry.
