FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?
While they provide excellent support for daily road runs and training, performance at the marathon level depends on your personal biomechanics and distance goals.
Can I use these for trail running?
No, the Gel-Excite 11 is designed for road and paved surfaces. Using them on rugged trails may result in reduced traction and faster wear.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300-500 miles, depending on your running surface and intensity.
Do they provide arch support?
The shoes feature a balanced design, but they are neutral trainers; if you require specific medical orthotics, they can typically accommodate removable insoles.
Are they true to size?
Yes, Asics sizing follows standard adult UK sizing conventions. We recommend checking the size guide if you are between sizes.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort after long runs
Ensure the laces are tensioned correctly and consider swapping to a performance-oriented running sock.
Accumulation of dirt in mesh
Allow the mud to dry, then use a soft-bristle brush to gently dislodge particles from the mesh fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Asics Gel-Excite 11 trainers provide maximum longevity, follow these care guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear them for short walks or light jogs to allow the foam to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Hand wash using a soft brush and mild soap. Avoid putting them in the washing machine as this can compromise the adhesive and cushioning structure.
- Drying: Air dry only at room temperature. Never place them in a tumble dryer or near direct heat sources, as extreme heat can warp the materials.
- Storage: Keep them in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve the integrity of the mesh and cushioning.
