FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?
The ASICS Gel-Excite 11 trainers are designed for general wear and light training. For marathon running or high-impact endurance activities, specialized running shoes with advanced support and cushioning systems are recommended.
Can I remove the insole to fit my own orthotics?
Yes, the insole is removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics for a personalized fit and support.
How do I know if I have the right size?
A proper fit means there should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not tight around the foot, with no heel slippage.
What is the primary benefit of the GEL technology?
The GEL technology is ASICS' proprietary cushioning system that absorbs shock effectively, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on your joints during impact.
How often should I clean my trainers?
Clean your trainers as needed, particularly after dusty or dirty use. Regular spot cleaning will help maintain their appearance and material integrity. Avoid machine washing.
What is the main difference between the Gel-Excite 11 and other ASICS trainers?
The Gel-Excite 11 focuses on providing reliable cushioning and comfort for everyday use and light activities. Other ASICS models might offer more specialized features for specific sports like running, court sports, or trail running.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort after initial wear
Allow a break-in period of a few wears. Ensure the correct size has been selected. If discomfort persists, check if the removable insole needs adjustment or replacement with custom orthotics.
Feet feel too warm during activity
The breathable mesh upper offers good ventilation. For very warm conditions, ensure socks are also moisture-wicking. If the issue is persistent, consider if the activity level exceeds the intended use for these trainers.
Slight squeaking sound
Squeaking can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Remove the insole, check for any debris, and reinsert it firmly. If the sound persists, it may be due to the outsole on certain surfaces.
