FAQs
Can I use these for running?
No, these are designed specifically for indoor court sports involving lateral movement and are not structured for the forward-motion mechanics of distance running.
How do I determine if they fit correctly?
You should have enough room to wiggle your toes, and your heel should not lift out of the shoe when you walk or jump.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are removable if you need to insert custom orthotics.
How often should I replace these shoes?
For frequent players, it is recommended to replace them every 6 to 12 months, or sooner if the outsole grip becomes noticeably worn.
Can these be machine washed?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the structural integrity of the shoe. Use a damp cloth to clean the exterior.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping on court
Wipe the outsoles with a slightly damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and ensure the gym floor is clean.
Discomfort or pinching during play
Re-lace the shoes to adjust tension, ensuring the tongue is centered and not bunched.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 trainers last as long as possible, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure the shoes feel snug but not restrictive across the midfoot, with about a half-inch of space in the toe box.
- Indoor Use Only: Avoid wearing these shoes outside; grit and debris from the street can damage the soft rubber outsole and reduce its grip.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush after use. If they become damp from sweat, remove the insoles and let them air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials.
- Storage: Keep them in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the foam cushioning.
