Kids' Asics Sneakers

Why choose Asics sneakers for a child?

Asics has built its reputation on a long heritage in running, which is reflected in the design of its children’s shoes. The soles are designed to support the natural movements of the foot, whether for running around the playground or for more regular sporting use. This technical approach, inherited from adult models, reassures parents looking for a shoe that is both comfortable and durable for an active child.

What types of Asics children's sneakers can you find at Foot-Store?

The Asics children's catalogue at Foot-Store mainly offers running and lifestyle models, suitable for everyday use as well as occasional sports activities. These shoes are distinguished by their lightweight design and closure systems that are easy for a child to use, such as elastic laces or Velcro fastenings depending on the model.

How to choose the right size of Asics sneakers for a child?

Choosing the right size depends on the child's current shoe size, but also their expected growth in the coming months. It's recommended to measure the foot at the end of the day when it’s slightly larger and to leave a bit of space in front of the toes. If unsure between two sizes, referring to the size guide specific to each model is the most reliable solution, as sizes may vary between different ranges.

Are Asics children's sneakers suitable for sports or mainly for everyday use?

Both uses are possible depending on the model chosen. Some Asics children's sneakers incorporate technical elements from running, suitable for regular sporting activities, while other models, with simpler designs, are more suitable for everyday use at school or away from sports activities. It’s useful to check the description of each product to identify the best usage for it.

Frequently asked questions

Do Asics children's sneakers fit like adult models?

Children's sizes follow a specific numbering, different from that of adult models. It's best to refer to the size guide provided on each product page instead of trying to convert an adult size yourself.

Can you find Asics children's sneakers for walking and not just for sports?

Yes, several models in the catalogue are designed for everyday use rather than strictly for sports. However, their soles are still inspired by the brand's running technologies, providing a good level of comfort for walking.

How to care for Asics children's sneakers made of canvas or mesh?

A gentle clean with lukewarm water and a soft brush is generally enough for the textile materials used in this type of model. It's best to let the shoes air dry, away from any source of direct heat, to preserve the structure of the sole.

Do Asics children's sneakers come with Velcro closures?

Some models in the catalogue feature a Velcro closure, which is easier for younger children to use than traditional laces. The availability of this type of closure varies by model and age group, so it’s worth checking the product page.

What’s the difference between a Asics children's sneaker and a downsized adult model?

A sneaker designed for children is not just a smaller version of an adult model: the construction of a child's foot, which is still growing, requires different support and flexibility. That's why Asics designs lines dedicated to children rather than adapting its adult models into smaller sizes.
