Product Information

Full details

The Asics Gel-Excite 11 trainers are entry-level athletic shoes specifically engineered for beginners and casual runners who prioritize comfort and versatility in their daily footwear. Featuring the signature AmpliFoam+ midsole, these trainers excel at impact absorption during short to medium-length runs or general gym activities, though they are primarily designed for recreational use rather than high-performance professional marathon training.

FAQs

Are these shoes good for marathon running?

The Gel-Excite 11 is designed for beginners and casual use. While very comfortable, they may lack the advanced energy return and stability features found in elite-level long-distance shoes.

Can I use these for lifting weights?

Yes, their flexible design and moderate cushioning are generally suitable for general gym sessions and casual lifting.

Are these waterproof?

No, they are made from breathable mesh materials which are designed to let air flow through, meaning they are not waterproof.

How often should I replace them?

As a general rule for running shoes, you should look to replace them every 400 to 500 miles, or when you notice the cushioning foam no longer provides the same support.

Do these run true to size?

Yes, Asics generally follow standard sizing. If you have worn Asics previously, you should stick to your usual size.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight after a long run

Feet naturally swell during exercise. Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks and consider lacing the shoes slightly looser to accommodate swelling.

Accumulated dirt on the midsole

Use a damp cloth and a mild soap to gently wipe the foam. Do not scrub aggressively, as this can damage the texture of the AmpliFoam+ material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Soft, cushioned feel underfoot thanks to AmpliFoam+
  • Highly versatile for both running and gym workouts
  • Lightweight design prevents foot fatigue
  • Breathable material keeps feet cool
  • Excellent value for beginner runners

Cons

  • Not suitable for high-intensity or long-distance competitive racing
  • Less stability features compared to dedicated high-end support shoes
  • The minimalist aesthetic may not appeal to those wanting high-visibility features

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Asics Gel-Excite 11 trainers maintain their performance, follow these care instructions:

  1. Break-in Period: While these shoes offer immediate comfort, wear them for shorter sessions for the first few days to allow the upper to adapt to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Do not submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine. Clean the surface with a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth using mild, non-detergent soap.
  3. Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can degrade the foam and glue integrity.
  4. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to prevent odor buildup and prolong the life of the cushioning materials.
