FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear, street style, and everyday comfort. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-performance running or intense athletic training.

How do I clean the suede and mesh upper?

For routine cleaning, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, gently spot clean with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild detergent. Avoid saturating the material. Always let them air dry naturally away from direct heat.

What is GEL technology?

ASICS GEL technology is a silicone-based material strategically placed in the sole (in this case, the heel) to absorb shock, reduce impact, and provide superior cushioning for enhanced comfort during movement.

What does TRUSSTIC support system do?

The TRUSSTIC support system is a component in the midfoot of the sole designed to reduce the weight of the sole unit while retaining the structural integrity of the shoe, providing enhanced stability and preventing twisting during movement.

Are these trainers made with sustainable materials?

Yes, the ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers incorporate partly recycled materials in their construction and feature a dope dyed sockliner, a process that significantly reduces water and energy consumption compared to traditional dyeing methods.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

No, it is not recommended to put these trainers in a washing machine or tumble dryer. The harsh cycles and heat can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoes. Always clean them by hand and air dry.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or too loose.

Adjust the lacing system. Ensure laces are evenly tightened across the foot. If still an issue, double-check your foot measurement against ASICS sizing guides for future purchases.

Foot discomfort or rubbing.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Check for any debris inside the shoe. Allow for a short break-in period. If discomfort persists, consult a footwear specialist.

Odor develops inside the trainers.

Regularly air out your trainers after use. Consider using odor-absorbing inserts or a shoe deodorizer. Ensure socks are clean and breathable. The dope dyed sockliner helps, but cannot completely prevent odor from prolonged use.

Suede or mesh appears dirty or stained.

Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, gently spot clean with a small amount of mild soap and water, then blot dry with a clean cloth. Do not rub aggressively, especially on suede. Allow to air dry completely.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes be caused by moisture between the insole and the sole. Remove the sockliner and clean both the inside of the shoe and the sockliner, then ensure they are completely dry before reinserting. Alternatively, a loose component in the sole could be the cause; if persistent, contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

The ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers require minimal setup:

  1. Lacing: Utilize the normal lacing system to adjust the fit. Start from the bottom eyelets and work your way up, ensuring even tension. Tie the laces securely but not overly tight to avoid pressure points.
  2. Break-in Period: While comfortable from the start, a short break-in period of a few wears can help the trainers conform perfectly to your foot shape.

Care & Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your trainers:

  • Cleaning the Upper: For the suede and mesh upper, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, gently spot clean with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid saturating the material. Allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
  • Cleaning the Sole: Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove mud and grime. A soft brush can help clean crevices.
  • Drying: Always air dry your trainers. Do not put them in a washing machine or tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent material degradation.
  • Sockliner: The dope dyed sockliner is designed for durability and reduced environmental impact. Regular airing out can help maintain freshness.
