FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The GEL-1130 is designed as a versatile trainer, not a specialized marathon shoe. While comfortable for general athletic activities, for dedicated long-distance running, consider models specifically engineered for marathon performance.

What is the TRUSSTIC™ Support System?

The TRUSSTIC™ Support System is a component located in the midfoot area of the shoe that provides stability and helps control pronation, contributing to a more efficient stride.

How should I clean the white and purple mesh upper?

Use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and water solution. Gently scrub the mesh and leather. Rinse with a damp cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid machine washing.

What is the primary benefit of the GEL™ Technology Cushioning?

The GEL™ Technology Cushioning is designed to provide excellent shock absorption, reducing the impact on your feet and joints during activity and enhancing overall comfort.

Are these trainers good for wide feet?

The standard fit of the GEL-1130 is designed for typical foot widths. If you have significantly wide feet, you may want to try them on or check for specific wide-fit versions if available.

How durable is the rubber outsole?

The rubber outsole is designed for durability and provides reliable traction. Regular cleaning and avoiding excessive wear on abrasive surfaces will help maintain its lifespan.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If they are new, try wearing them for short periods to allow them to break in. Consider using thinner socks.

Slipping sensation

Check if the laces are tied securely. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris that might reduce traction. The shoes may need a break-in period if they are brand new.

Discomfort during wear

Verify the shoe size and width are appropriate. Ensure the insoles are correctly positioned. Consider if the specific support features of this model meet your needs.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently clean the mesh and leather components with a soft brush or cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Use a damp cloth to wipe down the rubber outsole and midsole. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush can be used.
  3. Drying: Allow the trainers 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.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, away from direct sunlight.
