FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor running?
No, the Gel-Rocket 12 is specifically engineered for indoor court surfaces and lacks the tread pattern and sole durability required for outdoor terrain.
How do I determine my size?
These trainers follow standard UK sizing for adults. It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the ASICS size chart for the most accurate fit.
Can I machine wash the Gel-Rocket 12?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as the heat and agitation can compromise the adhesive and the structural integrity of the GEL cushioning.
What sports are these trainers best for?
They are ideal for indoor court sports including volleyball, badminton, squash, and indoor table tennis.
Does the shoe provide arch support?
The design includes a stable base and supportive midsole, but if you require specific medical arch support, you may choose to swap the factory insole for a custom orthotic.
Troubleshooting
Reduced traction on the court
Wipe the rubber outsoles with a slightly damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and floor debris.
Foot discomfort during long sessions
Check that the laces are adjusted correctly for a secure fit and ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks.
Odour buildup inside the shoe
Remove the insoles after use to allow for better ventilation and air out the shoes in a well-ventilated area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, ensure you are wearing the correct UK size for your foot shape. When not in use, store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent degradation of the materials. To clean the shoes, gently wipe away dirt with a damp cloth and mild detergent, avoiding submersion in water or machine washing, which can damage the cushioning properties. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from artificial heat sources.
