Here’s the Asics Gel Rocket 7. Asics Gel Rockets are relatively low-priced and usually have pretty cool styles, making them one of the most popular squash shoes around.
I tested out this shoe and my video review is here:
This shoe comes in lots of different color schemes, some of which are no longer available. Please see below for the different variations. Where possible, I’ve provided affiliate links. If you buy through one of these affiliate links, I will receive a small commission — thanks!
The weight of these shoes is 378 grams per shoe (based on a men’s US size 11.5 pair that I own).
The prior version of this shoe was the Asics Gel Rocket 6. The successor to this shoe is the Asics Gel Rocket 8.
Men
I spotted this green and black one in October 2016, but it’s only listed in one store and in one size. Not sure what the deal is with this one. Secret shoe!

I can’t find them for sale though.
Here’s one in colors they call “flash yellow” and “Chinese red”, which seems like a weird color name for a shoe, but maybe it will bring you good fortune and joy. Anyway here they are:
