FAQs

Are these ASICS GEL-1130 trainers suitable for serious running?

These trainers are designed for versatility, offering excellent comfort and stability for light to moderate runs, gym workouts, and everyday athletic activities. For highly competitive or specialized long-distance running, you might consider ASICS models specifically engineered for those demands.

How do I determine the correct size for me?

ASICS generally runs true to size. Since this specific product is a UK 6, we recommend ensuring that is your standard size for athletic footwear. If unsure, it's always best to try them on or consult ASICS' official sizing guide.

What is the primary benefit of GEL technology in these shoes?

The GEL technology in the heel is a proprietary ASICS cushioning system designed to absorb shock during impact, providing enhanced comfort and reducing strain on your joints during various activities.

Can I wear these trainers for activities other than running?

Absolutely! The ASICS GEL-1130 is crafted for versatile use, making it ideal for gym workouts, walking, and casual everyday wear. Its blend of comfort, stability, and style makes it a great choice for diverse activities.

What materials are used in the upper of the GEL-1130?

The upper features a breathable mesh base complemented by durable synthetic leather overlays, rip-stop underlays, and no-sew reinforcements to create a supportive and aesthetically pleasing design.

How should I clean the synthetic leather parts?

For synthetic leather, gently wipe with a damp cloth. For dirtier areas, use a small amount of mild, non-abrasive cleaner and then wipe off thoroughly with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh cleaning agents.

Troubleshooting

My feet feel uncomfortable or cramped after wearing.

Ensure your laces are not tied too tightly; readjust for a secure but not restrictive fit. Check if your socks are too thick, which might affect the internal space. Consider wearing them for shorter periods initially to allow for break-in.

The shoes feel slippery on certain surfaces.

Exercise caution on wet or exceptionally smooth surfaces. Regularly inspect the rubber outsole for excessive wear, which can reduce traction. Ensure the soles are clean of mud or debris.

The shoes are developing an unpleasant odor.

Remove the insoles and allow the trainers to air out thoroughly after each use. You can use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.

Stains are appearing on the mesh or synthetic leather.

Address stains as quickly as possible. For mesh, gently blot with a damp cloth and mild soap. For synthetic leather, use a clean damp cloth with a small amount of mild cleaner, avoiding excessive scrubbing which can damage the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting started with your ASICS GEL-1130 trainers is straightforward. Proper care will extend their life and maintain their aesthetic appeal.

Initial Setup

  1. Lacing: Upon first wear, adjust the full lace fastening to achieve a snug, comfortable, and secure fit. Ensure laces are tied firmly but not too tightly to avoid pressure points.
  2. Break-In Period: While comfortable from day one, allow a short break-in period for the shoes to fully conform to your feet during light activities before strenuous use.

Compatibility

  • Apparel: These trainers pair well with a wide range of athletic and casual wear, including shorts, leggings, joggers, jeans, and casual dresses.
  • Socks: For optimal comfort and moisture management, wear with athletic socks that offer appropriate cushioning and breathability.

Care and Maintenance

To keep your ASICS GEL-1130 trainers in excellent condition:

  1. Cleaning:
  • Mesh Upper: Gently wipe dirt and dust from the mesh with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean.
  • Synthetic Leather Overlays: Clean with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
  • Sole: Use a brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and debris from the rubber outsole and EVA midsole.
  1. Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators or dryers), as these can damage materials and adhesives.
  2. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. If storing for extended periods, consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
  3. Odor Control: If odors develop, remove insoles and allow shoes to air out. Shoe deodorizers or baking soda can also be used.
