Product Information
Full details
The ASICS GEL-ROCKET 12 trainers are designed for adult male athletes looking for a stable and comfortable shoe specifically engineered for indoor court sports. These trainers offer excellent shock absorption through signature GEL technology and reliable court traction, making them a top choice for multi-directional indoor activity; however, they are intended primarily for indoor surfaces and may show accelerated wear if used frequently on abrasive outdoor courts.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are specialized indoor court trainers. They lack the heel-to-toe transition and cushioning profile required for long-distance outdoor running.
Can I use these for outdoor sports?
While you can, the rubber outsole is optimized for indoor surfaces. Regular outdoor use on concrete or asphalt will cause the tread to wear out much faster.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft brush and mild soap with lukewarm water. Gently scrub the mesh and let the shoes air dry naturally.
What sports are these best for?
They are ideal for indoor court sports such as volleyball, squash, badminton, and handball.
Do they provide arch support?
The shoes include a supportive structure designed for lateral stability, which offers moderate support suitable for most neutral foot types.
Troubleshooting
Loss of traction on the court
Wipe the soles with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust or debris. If the rubber is clean but slipping persists, check if the outsole tread has worn down significantly.
Discomfort or pinching during play
Check your lacing tension. Loosen the laces slightly across the midfoot to allow for natural foot expansion during physical exertion.
Pros and Cons
Pros

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your GEL-ROCKET 12 trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Fit: Ensure you have a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during exercise.
- Care: Clean the outsoles with a damp, non-abrasive cloth after indoor use to remove court dust, which can diminish grip over time.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can damage the cushioning materials and shoe adhesives.
- Rotation: If training daily, consider rotating with a second pair to allow the foam and internal materials to decompress between sessions.
