FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

The ASICS GEL-1130 Youth trainers are designed primarily for everyday wear and casual activities. While they offer comfort and support for light exercise, they are not specialized for high-impact or professional sports.

How do I find the correct size?

Refer to the ASICS sizing guide or measure your child's foot from heel to toe. Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe for a comfortable fit.

Can these trainers be machine washed?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning system. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

What is the main benefit of the GEL cushioning?

The GEL cushioning technology in the midsole provides excellent shock absorption, reducing impact on the feet and joints during wear. This enhances comfort for extended periods.

How do I clean the white parts of the shoe?

Gently wipe the white areas with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, a small amount of mild soap can be used with a cloth, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What does 'Y2K revival' mean in relation to these shoes?

The 'Y2K revival' refers to the resurgence in popularity of fashion trends from the late 1990s and early 2000s. These trainers feature design elements characteristic of running shoes from that era.

Are there other colour options available?

Yes, the ASICS GEL-1130 series comes in various colourways and styles, including options in pink, silver, and black, often with different secondary colours.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not too constrictive. If still tight, consider if the size is appropriate or if the foot shape is incompatible with the shoe's last.

Squeaking noise

This can sometimes occur due to friction between parts of the shoe. Try sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole if removable. Ensure laces are tied correctly.

Discoloration or scuff marks

Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to gently clean the affected areas. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous spot first. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser might be used cautiously on the midsole.

Compatibility: The ASICS GEL-1130 Youth trainers are compatible with a wide range of casual children's wear, including jeans, shorts, and tracksuits. They are designed for unisex use.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be applied sparingly with a cloth, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  • Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Scrub gently with a brush and soapy water to remove dirt and scuffs. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
  • Laces: Remove laces before cleaning and wash them separately by hand or in a garment bag in the washing machine.
