FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are designed specifically for the lateral movements required in tennis. They lack the flexibility and cushioning profile needed for forward-motion running.
Does this model come in different widths?
This specific variant is a standard fit. We recommend checking your size against the Asics standard size guide.
How long should the GEL cushioning last?
The durability of the cushioning depends on usage frequency, but typically the GEL properties remain effective for the lifespan of the outsole.
Can I play on clay courts with these?
The full-length outsole provides great traction, but it is optimized primarily for hard courts. Check the tread pattern if you specifically play on clay.
What is the best way to break them in?
Wear them for short periods during light practice sessions before using them for full competitive matches to allow the leather to mold to your foot shape.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during play
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'runner's loop' to secure the heel, or ensure you are wearing thinner performance-specific tennis socks.
Visible scuffs or dirt on the leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft, damp cloth with a tiny amount of leather conditioner to gently remove surface debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Asics GEL-DEDICATE 9 trainers, proper maintenance is essential. As these shoes feature leather components, avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the material and affect the fit. If the shoes become dirty, wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. When sizing, ensure your foot is measured while wearing your preferred tennis socks to guarantee the 'locked-in' fit the design intends. If you use custom orthotics, the internal structure of the GEL-DEDICATE 9 is generally accommodating for removable inserts.
