The GEL-ROCKET 11 style is a multi-purpose indoor court shoe that offers stability and easy movement for court athletes. ​This shoe is designed with a flexible upper construction that's breathable and more comfortable.​ A TPU TRUSSTIC application in the midsole is designed to help resist over-twisting and improve stability during quick transitions. ​Its wrap-up outsole and outrigger are functional support components, helpful during side-to-side movements. Meanwhile, the outsole's flexion grooves provide better flexibility to help you move more freely on the court.
Breathable Mesh Upper
This shoe is designed with a flexible upper construction that can help feet bend more naturally and assist players in moving more freely. It is constructed from a highly breathable mesh covered in micro-perforations. These perforations prevent a build-up of heat, vapour and moisture by allowing them to escape and also work to actively encourage fresh air to flow in and circulate the shoe for a pleasant cooling sensation. Synthetic leather overlays provide improved support in the forefoot and help athletes make confident cuts as well as increase durability, whilst the traditional lacing system delivers stability and advanced control. A soft and padded tongue will also mean that a comfortable fit is guaranteed. A removable EVA sockliner will, over time, mould to your foot shape, providing personalised comfort and protection.
GEL Technology MidsoleThe midsole of the Gel-Rocket 11 will provide you with comfort, protection and responsiveness. The midsole is extremely springy, helping every step feel extremely comfortable. Creating excellent comfort, the GEL technology cushioning unit in the heel is functional for providing better shock absorption, reducing the impact and weight placed on the knees, ankles and other joints. Additionally, every step you take when running will be enhanced by the responsive midsole, providing an added spring to help you push past your opponents. For improved stability, the midsole uses an ASICS-developed Trusstic System. This moulded component will work to control torsion, helping you to change direction at speed without fear of twisting or causing damage to the shoe or your foot.
Durable Rubber Wrap Up OutsoleGrip and control on the court are guaranteed with the durable rubber outsole. The shoes form a solid bond with the court surface, keeping you firmly in charge as you grip yourself into a solid position. The rubber is also anti-abrasion, which means that the shape and definition of the outsole will be retained, improving the long-term functionality of the shoe. The wrap-up outsole design and outrigger work as a functional support component during side-to-side movements, helping you remain in control at all times. In contrast, the heel wrap-up expands the contact area during the landing phase of your stride to help generate a smoother landing. Lastly, the flexible grooves in the outsole are complemented by a side grip design that improves flexibility on the court.
