The ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 generally fits true to size. Refer to standard UK sizing for a comfortable performance fit.
What sports are these best for?
They are ideal for indoor court sports, including volleyball, squash, badminton, and indoor pickleball.
How should I clean the white sections of the shoe?
Use a mild soap and a soft-bristled brush or damp cloth. Gently wipe the affected areas and air dry away from heat sources.
Troubleshooting
Slipping on the court surface
Clean the rubber outsoles with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and debris that can block the grip patterns.
Feeling of tightness or discomfort
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to be looser across the forefoot, or ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks for the sport.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes follow standard athletic sizing. It is recommended to use your standard UK size.
- Break-in: Wear them for short periods during light activities before wearing them for a full, intense match to allow the materials to adapt to your foot.
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove court dust from the outsole after each session to maintain optimal traction. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the specialized adhesive and cushioning materials.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent premature material aging or discoloration.
