FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for outdoor running?

No, the GEL-ROCKET 12 is specifically designed for indoor court sports and lacks the necessary cushioning and tread durability for road running.

Can I use these for general gym training?

Yes, they provide excellent stability for weight training and general gym workouts, provided the surface is a standard indoor gym floor.

How should I clean my ASICS trainers?

Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submersion and machine washing to protect the structural integrity of the shoe.

What sport are these best for?

They are ideal for indoor court sports such as volleyball, badminton, squash, and pickleball.

Do these come in half sizes?

Yes, the series includes half-size variations to ensure a precise and comfortable fit.

Troubleshooting

Reduced grip on the court floor

The outsole may have accumulated dust or wax. Wipe the soles down with a damp cloth and dry them completely before stepping back on the court.

Discomfort during high-intensity play

Check your lacing tension. Ensure the laces are snug across the midfoot but not so tight that they restrict circulation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your ASICS GEL-ROCKET 12 trainers perform at their peak, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Fit Check: Ensure your foot has about half an inch of room at the front to prevent toe discomfort during abrupt stops.
  2. Indoor Use Only: Use these primarily on wooden or synthetic indoor court surfaces to maintain the integrity of the rubber outsole.
  3. Cleaning: Wipe away dust and loose debris after every session using a soft, dry brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid soaking the shoes or putting them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the internal adhesive and cushioning materials.
  4. Air Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or high-heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials.
