FAQs
Can I use these shoes for outdoor sports?
No, the Gel-Rocket 12 is designed specifically for indoor court surfaces. Using them outdoors will wear out the outsole material prematurely.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are built for court sports involving lateral movement. They do not offer the forward-motion support required for dedicated long-distance running.
How do I determine the right size?
The ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 follows standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to leave about half a thumb's width of space at the front of the shoe.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required for additional support.
What is the primary benefit of the GEL technology?
The GEL technology provides specialized shock absorption that reduces impact stress on the joints during jumps and sudden stops.
Troubleshooting
Reduced traction on the court
Clean the dust and debris from the rubber outsoles using a damp cloth or a specialized sports shoe cleaning brush.
Uncomfortable fit or pressure points
Adjust the lace tightness to ensure a secure but non-constricting fit, and consider replacing the factory insole with one that better suits your arch type.
Odour buildup inside the shoe
Use an antimicrobial shoe spray or moisture-wicking charcoal insert when the shoes are not in use to manage sweat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, wear sports-specific socks that match the arch support requirements of your feet. These trainers are sized for adult male feet; ensure you check your size against the UK sizing guide for an accurate fit. To maintain the life of your shoes, avoid using them on outdoor surfaces, as asphalt and concrete will rapidly erode the specialized rubber outsole. After training, remove the insoles to allow the interior to air out completely. If the shoes become soiled, wipe the upper mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap; do not submerge them in a washing machine or use high-heat dryers, as this can degrade the cushioning materials.
