FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for marathon running?

The GEL-1130 trainers offer good cushioning and support for general running and city wear. For marathon distances, consider trainers specifically engineered for long-distance endurance, which may offer enhanced cushioning and durability.

How do I determine the correct UK size?

Refer to the size chart provided by ASICS or the retailer. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the chart. Trying them on in person, if possible, is the most reliable method.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The trainers have a rubber outsole for grip, but they are not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain may lead to discomfort and potential material wear. Consider weather-specific footwear for very wet conditions.

What is the main difference between the GEL-1130 and other ASICS models?

The GEL-1130 specifically blends a retro 2000s aesthetic with modern GEL cushioning and Trusstic support, making it a versatile option for both running and lifestyle wear. Other models may focus more heavily on specific performance aspects like racing or trail running.

How often should I replace my GEL-1130 trainers?

For running, it's generally recommended to replace trainers every 300-500 miles (480-800 km) or when cushioning and support feel diminished. For casual wear, they can last longer depending on usage and care.

Are the materials used sustainable?

The product description focuses on the performance benefits of synthetic materials for durability and comfort. For specific information on the sustainability of materials used, please refer to ASICS' official sustainability reports or product details.

Troubleshooting

Reduced cushioning or support

Ensure laces are properly tied for optimal foot lockdown. For prolonged use, consider that cushioning may naturally degrade over time and may require replacement.

Slipping or lack of traction

Clean the rubber outsole to remove any dirt or debris that may be hindering grip. Ensure the surface you are on is not excessively wet or oily.

Discomfort or rubbing

Adjust the lacing system to find a more comfortable fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the issue persists, the fit may not be suitable for your foot shape.

Material damage after cleaning

Avoid using harsh chemicals, bleach, or machine washing/drying. Always opt for hand washing with mild soap and air drying in a cool, shaded area.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: For synthetic materials, use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and cool water solution to gently clean the surface. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
  2. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Ensure it is dry before use to maintain optimal grip.
  4. Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning if heavily soiled. Hand wash with mild soap and water, then air dry.
