FAQs

What type of activity are the ASICS GEL-1130 best suited for?

These trainers are ideal for daily wear, walking, and light training activities. They provide excellent cushioning and comfort for extended periods of standing or casual movement.

How does the GEL technology benefit the wearer?

The GEL technology is strategically placed in the midsole to provide superior shock absorption, reducing impact on your joints and offering a softer landing with every step.

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The GEL-1130 is designed for lighter activities. For marathon running, a shoe specifically engineered for high-impact, long-distance running would be more appropriate.

How should I clean my ASICS GEL-1130 trainers?

Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water to preserve their structure and materials.

Do these trainers come in different widths?

Availability of different widths can vary by region and specific release. It's recommended to check the product details or consult with a retailer for width options.

What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?

The lifespan depends on usage frequency and intensity. For daily casual wear, they can last a considerable time, but for regular training, replacement may be needed sooner as cushioning and support degrade.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole provides traction, the materials may not be waterproof. They are best suited for dry or moderately damp conditions. Heavy rain may affect performance and comfort.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring even pressure distribution. If still too tight, consider if a different size or width is needed.

Reduced cushioning over time

While GEL technology is durable, performance may decrease with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if significant wear is apparent.

Slight odor after use

Remove insoles and allow shoes to air dry completely. Use a shoe deodorizer or baking soda inside the shoes overnight.

Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces

Clean the outsole to remove any debris that may be impacting grip. Note that most athletic shoes have reduced traction on very wet or slippery surfaces.
