The ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 Sneaker is designed for athletes who demand reliable support and cushioning during indoor court sports. Ideal for volleyball, squash, badminton, and similar activities, it offers enhanced stability and comfort to help you perform your best.

The ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 Sneaker is engineered for optimal performance in indoor court environments. On the court, you'll experience a noticeable difference in foot stability during quick pivots and jumps, thanks to the TRUSSTIC SYSTEM. The GEL cushioning effectively absorbs the repeated impact from landing and sprinting, reducing fatigue and allowing for longer, more comfortable play. For example, during a fast-paced volleyball rally, the grip of the outsole allows for decisive, non-slip movements, while the cushioning protects against the stress of powerful jumps and quick stops. The breathable upper helps manage sweat, maintaining comfort even during extended periods of activity. This sneaker is your go-to for competitive and recreational indoor court sports where agility and support are paramount.
Lacing: Ensure proper lacing for a secure, comfortable fit. Experiment with different lacing patterns if you experience pressure points.
Initial Wear: Wear your new ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 sneakers for short periods initially to allow them to conform to your feet. This helps prevent discomfort during your first full game.
These sneakers are specifically designed for indoor court sports, including:
Volleyball
Badminton
Squash
Racquetball
Table Tennis
They are not recommended for outdoor running or trail sports, as the outsole is optimized for indoor surfaces and may wear quickly on rougher terrain.
Cleaning: To clean your sneakers, gently wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage the materials and cushioning.
Drying: Air dry your shoes at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can cause materials to crack or shrink.
Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to maintain their integrity and prolong their lifespan.
Odor Control: Remove insoles to air out after intense use. You can also use shoe deodorizers to keep them fresh.
