FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor use?
No, the Gel-Rocket 12 features a rubber outsole designed specifically for indoor court traction. Outdoor use will wear down the tread prematurely.
What sports are these trainers best for?
They are ideal for indoor court sports including volleyball, badminton, and squash.
How should I clean my Gel-Rocket 12 trainers?
Use a damp cloth for surface stains and a soft brush for the outsole. Never machine wash or tumble dry.
Do these trainers provide arch support?
Yes, they are built with structural integrity to support the foot during lateral maneuvers, though individual orthotic needs vary.
How do I ensure the right size?
The trainers follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to try them on with the specific athletic socks you plan to use for your sport.
Troubleshooting
Reduced grip on the court floor
Wipe the rubber outsoles with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and court debris.
Foot discomfort or pressure points
Re-lace the shoes using a different lacing technique, such as the 'heel lock' method, to better secure the foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, ensure your foot is measured accurately according to UK sizing standards. When preparing for use, ensure the laces are adjusted to provide a secure fit across the midfoot without compromising circulation. To maintain the life of your trainers, avoid wearing them outdoors, as debris and asphalt can quickly degrade the specialized indoor rubber outsole. Clean the exterior using a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and a damp cloth for spots; avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the cushioning materials. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
