FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Asics Gel-Tactic 13 trainers are specifically designed for indoor court sports like handball. While they offer cushioning, they may not provide the specialized support and impact absorption required for dedicated running.

How do I know if I have the right size?

There should be a small amount of space (about a thumb's width) between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure without excessive slipping, and the midfoot should feel snug but not tight.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning system. Hand clean with a damp cloth and mild soap instead.

What is the primary sport these trainers are designed for?

These trainers are primarily designed for handball, but they are also suitable for other indoor court sports that require agility, stability, and cushioning.

What does 'GEL technology' mean for performance?

The GEL technology in the midsole is a cushioning system designed to absorb shock during impact, providing excellent comfort and helping to reduce stress on joints during athletic movements.

How durable are the Gel-Tactic 13 trainers?

They are constructed with durable materials to withstand the rigors of intense training and matches. However, extreme wear and tear can occur with consistent, high-impact use specific to court sports.

Troubleshooting

Reduced grip on court

Ensure the outsole is clean and free from dust or debris. Minor scuffs on a new outsole can sometimes reduce initial grip; this often resolves with light use.

Discomfort during play

Verify the shoe size and fit. Try adjusting the lacing to achieve a more secure or relaxed fit in specific areas. Ensure the socks worn are appropriate for athletic activity.

Signs of wear and tear after limited use

Inspect the specific area of wear. If it appears to be a manufacturing defect, contact customer support. If wear is due to intense use or friction, this may be normal for the sport.

  • Excellent stability for agile court movements.
  • Durable materials ensure longevity.
  • Designed for optimal grip on indoor courts.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. They are ready for use straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal performance and comfort.

Compatibility: The Asics Gel-Tactic 13 Handball Trainers are designed for performance on indoor court surfaces such as wood or synthetic gym flooring. They are not recommended for outdoor use or rough terrain, as this can damage the outsole and compromise performance.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a dry brush. For tougher stains, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the shoes.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
