The size (48) Gel Rocket 6 falls like all other Asics I had ever made, comparable to sneakers from Adidas and Puma and Birkenstock in 46, just under 2 numbers produce Unlike many brands that do not sport shoes. I use the shoe for the sport table tennis match in the hall. He is a firm footing and feet do not get tired so fast through the Attenuation. Despite rapid movement changes are possible because the shoes are not too heavy and the sole has a good grip on the hall floor, even if it is a bit dirty. At first I thought "the few steps at the table" for the rich past of running shoes, with whom one has run several kilometers at a time not so long ago. By building the Gel Rocket convey such general shoes for indoor ball sports a much more direct and more secure ground contact when eg running shoes, which are usually designed for continuous rolling movements and with which you can quickly slide around or fold over. In addition, of course, only special soles are tolerated leave no marks in most halls. The Gel Rocket 6 is about 60 MSRP one of the more favorable indoor sports shoes from Asics. As a comparison, I have the gel and the gel Hunter Blade 2 carried into the hall. The Hunter (approximately 360g) was about 30g per shoe lighter but less well damped. The Gel Blade 2 is indeed valued more expensive with about 100 MSRP but comparable in comfort. The Blade 2 is a bit softer in the forefoot but what I can evaluate neither advantage nor a disadvantage. With 396g of Rocket is even about 20g lighter than the blade 2 (both size 48). The fit is as usual at Asics well for normal to wide feet I think einschätze. The processing may seem like Asics usual very good, the outside even more robust and better than the blade 2 and the Hunter. The interior materials are less porous compared to the blade 2 and there remain visible hanging Sockenflusen. The insole is removable but obviously slightly glued at a pinch, a total not intended as high quality as the more expensive models, and not for the regular removal. Therefore, the drying time can be somewhat longer. As in virtually all synthetic shoes feet wet when you sweat quickly because the shoes absorb less moisture than sports shoes made of leather, which is however hardly still are and have other disadvantages. A Night on the (not too hot) hot heating and shoes are again completely dried and are compared to leather not brittle and cracked. I bought the shoes for 40 and was so convinced that I have again struck a week later at a range of 30 equal (both incl. Shipping). A great shoe for little money could be worn the well in the spare time (if you do not sweaty and stands on bright colors). ;)
