FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The ASICS GEL-1130 trainers are based on a running shoe design from 2008 and offer stability. However, they are primarily recommended for casual wear and light activities rather than intense, high-impact running.

Troubleshooting
Sizing feels slightly off
Refer to the ASICS sizing chart for accurate measurements. Consider trying them on with the type of socks you typically wear. If purchased online, check the return policy for exchanges.
Reduced cushioning over time
The GEL cushioning is designed for longevity but may lessen with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities beyond their intended purpose (e.g., intense running). Consider rotating with other footwear.
Outer material appears dirty
Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt. For tougher spots, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by a clean damp cloth. Ensure they air dry completely.
