FAQs
What sports are the ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 trainers suitable for?
These trainers are specifically designed for indoor court sports like handball, volleyball, and squash.
What is the benefit of GELTM technology in these trainers?
GELTM technology provides energetic cushioning and superior shock absorption, particularly in the rear and forefoot, to protect your feet during high-impact movements and landings.
Can I use these trainers for outdoor activities?
No, the ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 trainers are engineered specifically for indoor court surfaces and their performance and durability may be compromised on outdoor terrain.
How should I clean my ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 trainers?
Wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Clean the rubber sole with a soft brush and water. Always allow them to air dry naturally.
How do I ensure I get the correct size?
It's important to try on the footwear before purchasing or returning. Be aware that the label might state US/Euro sizes which differ from UK sizing, so confirm your UK size carefully.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels uncomfortable or rubs in specific areas.
Ensure you have the correct size by trying them on properly, considering the UK/US/Euro size variations. Adjust lacing for a more customized fit. Wear appropriate athletic socks.
Grip on the court seems to be reduced.
Check if the rubber sole is clean; dirt or dust can reduce traction. Wipe the sole with a damp cloth if needed. Also, ensure the court surface itself is clean and dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup & First Use
- Lacing: Ensure trainers are laced securely but not overly tight. A proper lacing technique should provide a snug fit that supports your foot without restricting circulation.
- Initial Fit Check: Before playing, walk and perform some light movements to ensure comfort. Pay attention to any pressure points or rubbing. Remember the recommendation to try on your footwear before returning, especially noting that the box or label might display a US/Euro size different from the UK size.
Compatibility
- Surfaces: These trainers are specifically designed for indoor court surfaces. They are ideal for sports such as handball, volleyball, and squash.
- Avoid: Using them on outdoor surfaces (e.g., asphalt, concrete, grass) is not recommended as it can prematurely wear out the sole and reduce their performance and grip on indoor courts.
Care
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth and mild soap (if necessary) to remove dirt and sweat. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Sole: Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and water to clean any debris from the rubber sole. This helps maintain optimal grip.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
