FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for trail running?
No, the Gel-Excite 11 is optimized for road and city surfaces; it lacks the deep lugs and protective plates required for technical trails.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is recommended to clean them by hand. Machine washing can damage the materials and the cushioning properties of the GEL units.
How should these shoes fit?
You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe for optimal comfort.
Does the mesh upper provide good ventilation?
Yes, the engineered mesh is specifically designed to promote airflow to keep your feet cool during activity.
What is the primary benefit of the GEL technology?
The GEL technology is placed in the midsole to help absorb impact and provide better shock attenuation compared to standard foam.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort or pressure points
Ensure the laces are not overly tight and verify that you are using the correct size for your foot width.
Reduction in cushioning feel over time
All foam midsoles compress with heavy mileage. Consider rotating between two pairs of shoes to allow the cushioning foam to recover its shape.
Poor traction on wet surfaces
Check the rubber outsole for excessive wear or debris accumulation in the tread patterns and clean thoroughly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Asics Gel-Excite 11 trainers, perform a proper fit check upon receiving your pair to confirm adequate toe room. Keep the mesh upper clean by gently wiping away surface dust with a soft, dry brush after runs to maintain breathability. If the shoes become heavily soiled, use a mild soap and a damp cloth; avoid submerging them in water or using harsh detergents. Always allow your trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can damage the integrity of the adhesive and cushioning materials.
