Product Information

Full details

The ASICS Gel Rocket 12 is designed for adult athletes seeking a reliable, high-performance shoe for volleyball and other indoor court sports. Its primary benefit is the combination of advanced GEL cushioning and structural stability, providing essential support during explosive jumps and rapid lateral movements; however, users should note these are specifically engineered for indoor court use and may wear down quickly on abrasive outdoor surfaces.

FAQs

Can I use these shoes for outdoor sports?

No, these are strictly indoor court shoes. Using them on outdoor asphalt or concrete will rapidly degrade the specialized rubber outsole.

Does the shoe provide arch support?

The TRUSSTIC technology provides structural midfoot support, but those needing significant orthopedic arch support may benefit from custom insoles.

Are these shoes machine washable?

No. Machine washing can damage the adhesive and the responsive cushioning technology. Spot cleaning is recommended.

Is the sizing true to size?

Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to try them on with the specific socks you intend to use for sports.

What does the non-marking sole mean?

It means the rubber composition will not leave black scuff marks on gym floors, which is a common requirement for indoor sports facilities.

Troubleshooting

Slipping on the court surface

Ensure the outsoles are free of dust or debris. Wiping the soles with a damp towel before play can restore grip.

Feeling of tightness in the midfoot

Adjust the lacing pattern to be looser in the midfoot area or ensure the tongue is centered properly before tightening.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Gel Rocket 12 trainers, follow these guidelines:

  1. Sizing: These trainers follow standard UK sizing; ensure a thumb-width of space at the front to prevent toe discomfort during abrupt stops.
  2. Usage: Use exclusively on indoor court surfaces like wood, synthetic court tiles, or rubberized gym floors to preserve the specialized rubber outsole.
  3. Cleaning: Wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using a washing machine, which can compromise the glue and structural integrity of the GEL inserts.
  4. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent the materials from becoming brittle.
