Full details
The ASICS Gel-Excite 11 trainers are designed for adult runners seeking a blend of cushioning, stability, and breathability for their daily jogs and workouts. Their key benefit lies in the GEL™ technology, which provides excellent shock absorption to support joints.

FAQs
How do I determine the correct UK size for these trainers?
It is recommended to try the shoes on before purchase. Pay attention to the UK size indicated on the product or packaging, as the box may display US or Euro sizes which differ.
Are these trainers suitable for marathon running?
The Gel-Excite 11 is designed for daily runs and general workouts. For marathon distances, you might consider more specialized, high-mileage running shoes for enhanced cushioning and durability over longer distances.
Can I use these trainers for trail running?
These trainers are primarily designed for road running and gym use. The sole may not provide sufficient grip or protection for rugged trail surfaces.
How often should I replace my ASICS Gel-Excite 11 trainers?
For optimal performance and to prevent injuries, it's generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300-500 miles (approximately 480-800 km) or when you notice significant wear on the sole or a reduction in cushioning.
What is the main benefit of the GEL™ technology?
The GEL™ technology is ASICS' proprietary cushioning system that absorbs shock effectively during impact, providing a comfortable ride and helping to protect your joints.
How should I clean my Gel-Excite 11 trainers?
Gently clean the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals. Allow them to air dry completely.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try on the shoes with your typical running socks. If the fit is still not right, consider a different size or model.
Reduced cushioning or support over time.
The cushioning may naturally decrease with extensive use. For optimal performance, consider replacing trainers after 300-500 miles of running or when signs of wear are evident.
Slipping or lack of grip.
Ensure the anti-slip sole is clean and free from debris like mud or small stones. If the sole appears worn, it may be time to consider a replacement.
Discomfort in the arch area.
While the GEL™ technology provides cushioning, some users might benefit from additional arch support. Consider using aftermarket insoles designed for running shoes.
