The ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 excels in environments demanding quick footwork and sudden changes in direction. For badminton and squash players, the shoe's enhanced GEL® cushioning effectively absorbs the impact from jumps, lunges, and rapid court coverage, protecting your feet and joints. The improved stability features shine when executing lateral movements, ensuring your foot stays securely in place and minimizing the risk of twists.
On the court, the responsive outsole provides reliable multi-directional grip. This is critical for generating power during explosive pushes off the ground and for maintaining control during sudden stops. Whether you're making a cross-court dash in squash or performing intricate footwork in badminton, the Gel-Rocket 12 offers the confidence needed to perform at your best. Its durable construction means it can withstand the constant friction and abrasion associated with competitive indoor play, making it a reliable partner for your training and matches.
Your ASICS Gel-Rocket 12 shoes arrive ready to wear. Simply lace them up to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. Ensure your laces are securely tied to prevent tripping and provide optimal support during play.
These shoes are specifically designed for indoor court surfaces. This includes wood, synthetic, and rubberized courts commonly found in sports halls for badminton, squash, volleyball, and similar activities. Using them on abrasive outdoor surfaces like asphalt or concrete is not recommended as it will lead to premature wear of the outsole and reduce performance.
To extend the life and maintain the performance of your Gel-Rocket 12 shoes, follow these care tips:
Cleaning: After use, wipe down the exterior of the shoes with a damp cloth to remove dirt and sweat. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush.
Drying: Allow your shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators or dryers), which can damage materials and adhesives. You can stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape.
Odour Control: Remove insoles periodically to air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or baking soda sprinkled inside to combat odours.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry your shoes, as this can degrade materials and compromise their structural integrity.
