Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Gel-Excite 11 is a versatile, neutral-leaning trainer engineered for active adults who need a reliable, cushioned shoe for daily runs, gym sessions, or walking. By combining AMPLIFOAM plus and FF BLAST plus technologies with PureGEL heel inserts, it provides a soft, responsive ride that minimizes impact; however, it is specifically optimized for neutral to underpronating foot types, which may not suit those requiring significant stability correction.

FAQs
Is the ASICS Gel-Excite 11 good for flat feet?
This shoe is designed for neutral or underpronating runners. If you have flat feet that require significant stability support, you might find this model lacks the necessary arch structure.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the foam and upper materials. We recommend hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap.
How long will the cushioning last?
Generally, running shoes like the Gel-Excite 11 should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and body weight.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?
They are ideal for base mileage and daily training, though some athletes prefer more specialized high-stack shoes for marathon distances.
Does the size UK 4 fit true to size?
ASICS generally follows standard sizing, but it is recommended to ensure you have a thumb-width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels too tight across the midfoot
Try a different lacing technique, such as the 'window lacing' method, to relieve pressure on the top of the foot.
Slippage in the heel area
Use the runner's loop (heel lock) lacing technique to secure the heel more firmly against the back of the shoe.
Pros and Cons

- Highly breathable material for temperature regulation

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS Gel-Excite 11 trainers, perform a quick check of the fit before your first long run to ensure there is adequate room in the toe box. These shoes are compatible with custom orthotics, provided the OrthoLite X 30 sockliner is removed first.
Care Instructions:
- Clean with a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt and dust.
- If the shoes get wet, remove the laces and let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the foam.
- Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the specialized cushioning properties and adhesive bonds.
