ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 - Black Gunmetal - 11 UK

The ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 is specifically designed for indoor court sports such as badminton, squash, volleyball, pickleball, and table tennis. Its features are optimized for the quick, multi-directional movements required in these activities.

To clean your shoes, gently wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. For the outsole, use a soft brush to remove dirt. Always allow them to air dry completely, away from direct heat or sunlight.

ASICS GEL Technology is a cushioning system that uses a silicone-based material strategically placed in the midsole of the shoe. It provides exceptional shock absorption, helping to attenuate impact during various movements and enhance comfort.

No, the ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 is specifically designed for indoor court surfaces. Using them outdoors, especially on rough surfaces like asphalt or concrete, can quickly wear down the outsole and reduce their performance and lifespan.

The lifespan of indoor court shoes varies depending on your frequency and intensity of play, as well as your body weight. As a general guideline, consider replacing them every 6-12 months, or sooner if you notice significant wear on the outsole, reduced cushioning, or persistent discomfort.

While the ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 is designed to accommodate a range of foot types, individuals with particularly wide feet may find the fit snug. It is always recommended to try on the shoes to ensure a comfortable and secure fit for your specific foot dimensions.

Ensure your shoes are laced correctly, not too tight or too loose. Check that you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking athletic socks. Consider trying different insoles for personalized arch support or cushioning if discomfort persists.

Clean the outsole regularly to remove dust and debris that can reduce traction. Ensure the court surface itself is clean and dry. If the outsole appears worn smooth, it may be time to replace your shoes.

Remove insoles and air out your shoes completely after every use. You can use shoe deodorizers, baking soda inside the shoes (remove before use), or anti-bacterial sprays. Ensure shoes are thoroughly dry before storing.

Verify you have the correct size for your feet. Lacing adjustments can significantly impact fit: try skipping eyelets for pressure points or using heel-lock lacing for a more secure heel. Consider visiting a specialty store for a professional fit assessment.
