FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathons?
The Gel-Excite 11 is excellent for daily training and moderate distances, though marathon runners might prefer models with more specialized support.
Can I replace the insoles with custom orthotics?
Yes, the insoles are removable, making them compatible with most custom orthotic inserts.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
ASICS trainers generally follow standard sizing. Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Is the upper material waterproof?
No, the breathable mesh is designed for ventilation and will allow water to pass through if stepped in a puddle.
How often should I replace these trainers?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and intensity.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of discomfort or hot spots
Check your lacing tension; over-tightening can restrict circulation. If discomfort persists, consider using a thinner moisture-wicking sock.
Outsole losing traction
Clean the bottom of the shoes to remove packed-in debris, dirt, or small stones that might prevent the rubber from making full contact with the ground.
Odour buildup
Remove the insoles after use to let them air out separately, and consider using a deodorizing spray or insert specifically designed for athletic footwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS Gel-Excite 11 trainers last as long as possible, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for short walks before transitioning to longer runs to allow the foam to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Do not put the trainers in a washing machine. Instead, remove loose dirt with a soft brush and clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can degrade the rubber and foam.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material discoloration and premature aging of the adhesives.
