Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your GEL-Excite 11 trainers, perform a visual inspection of the outsole periodically for debris. If cleaning is necessary, hand wash with a soft brush and mild soap; avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can degrade the foam and adhesive. For optimal fit, ensure the laces are snug but not restrictive to maintain circulation. If you use custom orthotics, the factory ORTHOLITE insole is removable to accommodate your specific inserts.
