FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor courts?
No, the ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 trainers are specifically designed for indoor court surfaces. The sole is optimized for grip on wood or synthetic indoor flooring and may wear down quickly or perform poorly on abrasive outdoor surfaces.
How do I clean my Gel-Rocket 12 trainers?
Gently wipe the trainers with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.
What sports are these trainers best for?
These trainers are ideal for versatile indoor play, including volleyball, badminton, squash, table tennis, and other racquet sports played on indoor courts.
How does the GEL cushioning work?
The GEL technology is strategically placed in the midsole to absorb shock during impact, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on your joints.
What is the main benefit of the enhanced lateral stability?
Enhanced lateral stability helps support quick side-to-side movements and changes of direction, providing greater confidence and control during agile play.
Can I wear these for running?
While they offer cushioning, these trainers are not designed for running. Their structure and sole are optimized for the lateral movements and grip required in court sports, not the forward motion and impact of running.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Please refer to the retailer or ASICS official website for specific warranty information, as it can vary by region and purchase date.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If still tight, try wearing thinner socks or loosen the laces. The upper may also offer some stretch over time with use.
Lack of grip on court
Ensure the court surface is clean and free from dust or debris. The sole's grip can be reduced by accumulated dirt. Clean the sole with a damp cloth if necessary.
Discomfort during play
Check lacing for even pressure distribution. Ensure you are wearing appropriate sports socks. Break in the shoes gradually through shorter play sessions.
Upper material feels stiff
The lightweight upper is designed for breathability and support. Wear the shoes for short periods to allow them to adapt to your foot shape.
