FAQs

Can I use these for outdoor tennis or running?

No, these shoes are specifically optimized for indoor court surfaces and do not have the durability or outsole design required for concrete or asphalt.

Are these shoes machine washable?

It is not recommended to machine wash your trainers as this can damage the structural materials and the cushioning technology.

What is the primary function of the TRUSSTIC system?

The TRUSSTIC technology is designed to provide midfoot stability by reinforcing the arch area, helping to reduce twisting during sudden lateral movements.

How should I clean the mesh upper?

Gently brush off dry dirt with a soft brush or wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap; always air dry away from direct heat sources.

Does this shoe provide arch support?

Yes, the shoe includes integrated midfoot support to assist with balance and stability during court play.

Troubleshooting

Feeling instability during side-to-side movements

Ensure the laces are tied snugly to keep your foot locked in the heel cup and verify that the midfoot support is not hindered by overly thick or loose socks.

Losing traction on court floor

Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and grit, which is the primary cause of slipping on polished gymnasium surfaces.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent impact protection for high-jump sports
  • Lightweight and breathable mesh construction
  • High level of lateral stability for court maneuvers
  • Non-marking sole safe for indoor gymnasium floors

Cons

  • Not suitable for outdoor terrains
  • Limited cushioning for non-court related activities
  • Indoor-specific tread pattern wears out quickly on concrete

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your ASICS Gel Rocket 12 trainers, proper care is essential. Since these are high-performance court shoes, avoid using them for outdoor activities where debris can clog the flex grooves or damage the rubber sole. To clean the mesh upper, use a soft brush or cloth to remove surface dust; avoid machine washing, which can break down the adhesives and the integrity of the GEL inserts. For optimal performance, replace the shoes once the tread pattern shows significant smoothing, typically after 400 to 500 miles of court play, depending on intensity. Ensure you have the correct size for a secure fit to prevent slipping inside the shoe during play.
