FAQs
What type of sports are the ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 best suited for?
These trainers are ideal for indoor court sports such as volleyball, badminton, squash, and netball, as well as general training activities.
How do I clean my Gel-Rocket 12 trainers?
Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, as this can damage the shoe's materials and structure.
What is the purpose of the TRUSSTIC technology?
TRUSSTIC technology is a midsole insert that provides enhanced stability, helping to prevent excessive twisting of the foot during quick transitions and lateral movements.
Does the GEL-ROCKET 12 offer good cushioning?
Yes, the shoes feature GEL Technology in the heel, which provides excellent shock absorption to cushion landings and reduce impact.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The standard fit is designed for average foot widths. Adjusting the laces can offer some flexibility, but individuals with significantly wide feet may find other models more accommodating.
What is the heel height of these trainers?
The ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 has a flat heel height.
Can I use these shoes for outdoor running?
While durable, these trainers are specifically designed for indoor court performance and multisport activities. They are not optimized for the demands of outdoor running.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable on first wear.
The GEL-ROCKET 12 may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly, not too tight.
Slipping on court surfaces.
Ensure the court surface is clean and dry. The outsole is designed for specific indoor court materials; performance may vary on different surfaces. Check for excessive wear on the outsole tread.
Feet feel hot during play.
The breathable mesh upper is designed for ventilation. If overheating persists, ensure socks are made of moisture-wicking material. Verify that the laces are not tied too tightly, restricting airflow.
