The ASICS Gel-Excite 11 is engineered to deliver a balanced performance for its target audience: beginners and casual runners. In practice, the AmpliFoam+ midsole provides noticeable cushioning, making road running or gym workouts feel less strenuous on your joints. This cushioning is particularly beneficial during the initial phases of a run, absorbing the repetitive impact.
The breathable mesh upper effectively manages moisture and heat, preventing discomfort and blisters on warmer days or during intense sessions. Users will appreciate the consistent air circulation that keeps feet feeling fresh.
Its robust outsole offers dependable traction, whether you're navigating urban sidewalks, park paths, or the smooth surfaces of a gym floor. This versatility makes the Gel-Excite 11 a reliable choice for a range of activities. The lightweight build contributes to an overall feeling of agility, allowing for a more 'energetic' stride without feeling weighed down. The secure heel hold ensures that your foot remains stable within the shoe, reducing slippage and enhancing confidence with each step, particularly important for those new to running form. While excellent for daily training and general fitness, its design is optimized for short to medium distances, ensuring peak performance within this range.
Your ASICS Gel-Excite 11 running shoes are ready to use right out of the box. Simply lace them up to achieve a comfortable and secure fit that accommodates your foot shape. Ensure laces are tied securely but not too tightly to prevent pressure points.
These trainers are designed primarily for road running and are highly suitable for gym sessions. Their versatile outsole provides reliable grip on various typical running surfaces, including asphalt, paved paths, and indoor gym floors. They are compatible with standard athletic socks. The men's sizing (UK 8 for this variant) is designed for an adult male foot.
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your ASICS Gel-Excite 11 shoes:
Cleaning: Gently wipe off dirt and mud with a soft cloth or brush after each use. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cold water mixture. Avoid harsh detergents or hot water, as these can damage materials.
Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources like radiators, which can cause materials to shrink or crack. You can stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures or humidity.
Odour Management: To prevent odors, remove insoles occasionally to air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers.
