FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for walking?

Yes, the ASICS Gel-Excite 11 provides excellent cushioning and comfort, making them very well-suited for daily walks, casual wear, and standing for extended periods.

Can I use these shoes for gym workouts?

Absolutely. Their comfort and cushioning make them ideal for various gym activities like treadmill running, elliptical training, and light strength training. For activities requiring significant lateral movement or heavy lifting, specialized gym shoes might be more appropriate.

How do I clean my ASICS Gel-Excite 11 shoes?

We recommend hand-cleaning your shoes. Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water to gently scrub dirty areas. Do not machine wash or dry them. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.

What is the primary difference between the Gel-Excite 11 and previous models?

The Gel-Excite 11 typically features updated cushioning technologies like AMPLIFOAM PLUS and refined upper materials for improved breathability and fit compared to earlier versions in the series. Specific improvements vary by model year.

Are these shoes good for wide feet?

The ASICS Gel-Excite 11 generally offers a standard fit. If you have particularly wide feet, it's recommended to try them on or check if ASICS offers wide-fit versions of this model for optimal comfort.

What is the lifespan of these running shoes?

The lifespan of running shoes varies depending on usage, running style, body weight, and terrain. Generally, running shoes are recommended to be replaced every 300-500 miles (approximately 480-800 km) or every 6-12 months, whichever comes first. Monitor for signs of significant wear on the outsole and midsole.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable after wearing.

Check your lacing technique. Ensure laces are evenly tightened across the foot, not just at the top. You may need to experiment with different lacing patterns for a better fit. Verify you have the correct size; feet can swell during the day, so try them on later in the day.

Feet feel hot or sweaty during use.

The engineered jacquard mesh upper is designed for breathability. Ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks, not thick cotton socks. Allow shoes to air out completely between uses.

Lack of grip on certain surfaces.

The rubber outsole is designed for road and gym surfaces. Avoid using the shoes on extremely wet, icy, or very uneven/slippery off-road terrain, as they are not optimized for such conditions.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes be caused by the sockliner rubbing against the inside of the shoe. Try removing the ORTHOLITE sockliner, cleaning both the sockliner and the inside of the shoe, and then reinserting it. If the issue persists, applying a small amount of baby powder under the sockliner can sometimes help.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional Comfort: AMPLIFOAM PLUS and ORTHOLITE sockliner combine for plush comfort.
  • Effective Shock Absorption: Rearfoot Gel Technology protects joints during impact.
  • High Breathability: Engineered mesh upper keeps feet cool and dry.
  • Versatile Use: Suitable for daily runs, gym sessions, and casual all-day wear.
  • Secure Fit: Traditional lace-up design allows for personalized adjustments.

Cons

  • Road-Specific Design: Optimized for paved surfaces, less suited for aggressive trails or off-road terrain.
  • Info needed: May not provide enough stability for overpronators (needs confirmation).
  • Info needed: Not designed for competitive speed work where minimal cushioning is preferred.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Unboxing: Remove shoes from packaging.
  2. Lacing: Loosen laces, slide foot in, and adjust laces for a snug, comfortable fit. Ensure laces are tied securely but not too tightly to avoid pressure points.

Compatibility

  • Activity: Ideal for road running, daily walks, gym sessions (treadmill, elliptical, light strength training).
  • Surface: Best suited for paved roads, sidewalks, treadmills, and gym floors.
  • Foot Type: Designed for neutral pronation, offering balanced cushioning. Individuals with severe overpronation may require shoes with additional stability features.

Care

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the mesh upper with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals. For dirtier areas, a soft brush can be used.
  • Drying: Air dry shoes 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. Remove insoles if they become damp to allow for better air circulation.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check laces for wear and replace if necessary. Avoid machine washing to preserve shoe integrity.
