ASICS is one the top selling brands in sports footwear, lots of runners, tennis players such as Novak Djokovic, Iga Swiatek use ASICS shoes. The quality of ASICS products are superb and lots of badminton players also use the ASICS shoes. I recently bought a couple of ASICS shoes(ASICS Gel Rocket 10 and ASICS Dedicate) and used them to play table tennis as well. In this review I will share my experience with ASICS Gel Rocket 10, which I feel is by far a superior product for table tennis as well.
My first impression after wearing this shoes was “Nice and comfortable”. For me, this is really important that the shoe is really comfortable on toe. Table Tennis requires lot of small sidewise movement and this shoe certainly helps with that.

The cost of ASICS Gel Rocket 10 is
This is premium quality product, if you can afford it then you will love this product. One key area where this shoe is superior to other shoes is that you can use it for badminton as well.
