FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

The ASICS GEL-1130 trainers are designed for everyday wear and light athletic activities. For marathon running, we recommend specialized marathon training shoes that offer advanced cushioning and support for long distances.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by ASICS or the retailer. It's recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the sizing guide. Trying them on in-store, if possible, is the best way to ensure a perfect fit.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoes. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap for best results.

What is the main benefit of the GEL technology?

The GEL technology in the rearfoot is designed to absorb shock effectively, providing a cushioned and comfortable feel with every step and reducing impact on your joints.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the ASICS GEL-1130 trainers are not waterproof. They feature breathable mesh uppers which are designed for ventilation, not water resistance.

What makes the design 'retro-inspired'?

The design takes cues from ASICS' archive models, specifically referencing the GEL-KAYANO 14, and updates traditional running shoe aesthetics with contemporary materials and colorways.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the shoes are new, they may need a short break-in period. Trying different sock thicknesses can also help.

Reduced cushioning after wear

The GEL cushioning is designed for long-term comfort but can naturally compress over extensive use. Ensure the shoes are suitable for your activity level; they are optimized for casual wear and light activity.

Slipping on wet surfaces

While the rubber outsole provides good grip, performance on extremely wet or slippery surfaces may be reduced. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The ASICS GEL-1130 trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal fit and comfort.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult women and are suitable for a wide range of casual activities and light sports. They pair well with athleisure wear, jeans, and other casual outfits.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.
