How should I clean my Asics Gel-Rocket 12?
Wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources.
Do these shoes provide arch support?
The Gel-Rocket 12 features a balanced design that provides stability for standard foot arches during lateral movements.
Can I replace the insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable to accommodate personal orthotic inserts.
How does the sizing compare to other Asics models?
The Gel-Rocket series generally fits true to size, but we recommend comparing against your current athletic footwear size for the best fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, confirm your size before first use, as court shoes are designed for a snug, performance fit. To maintain the integrity of the rubber outsole and cushioning, wipe the outsoles with a slightly damp cloth after indoor sessions to remove dust, which can cause slipping. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can degrade the cushioning materials and adhesives.
