FAQs

Are the ASICS Gel-1130 suitable for running marathons?

The ASICS Gel-1130 is designed primarily as a lifestyle and casual trainer. While it offers good cushioning for everyday wear, it is not optimized for the specific demands of marathon running, which typically requires specialized performance running shoes.

How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?

Refer to the ASICS sizing chart, which usually provides measurements for foot length in centimeters or inches corresponding to UK, EU, and US sizes. Ensure you measure your foot length accurately.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

These trainers are not waterproof. While the materials offer some protection, prolonged exposure to heavy rain may result in wetness. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions and to dry them thoroughly if they get damp.

What is the main difference between the 'Black Cream' and other colorways?

The main difference lies in the color combination. The 'Black Cream' features a specific blend of black and cream for its upper and accents, offering a distinct aesthetic compared to other available colorways.

How often should I clean my ASICS Gel-1130 trainers?

Clean your trainers as needed, typically when they appear visibly dirty. Regular spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap will help maintain their appearance and longevity.

What does the 'Gel' in the name signify?

The 'Gel' refers to ASICS' proprietary GEL cushioning technology, which is strategically placed in the midsole (often in the heel and forefoot) to absorb shock during impact and provide a comfortable feel.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring an even distribution of pressure. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if a break-in period is needed.

Uneven wear on the outsole

Examine your walking gait. If there's a specific pattern of wear, it might indicate an uneven stride. Ensure you are using the shoes for their intended purpose (casual wear) and not for activities that cause excessive or uneven stress.

Discomfort after prolonged wear

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Allow for a break-in period. If discomfort continues, the shoe may not be suitable for your foot type or the duration of activity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The ASICS Gel-1130 trainers require no specific setup. Upon receiving them, ensure they fit correctly and adjust the lacing as needed for your comfort.

Compatibility:

These trainers are designed for general adult use. They are compatible with a wide range of casual and athleisure clothing.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: To clean, use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and cushioning.
  • Drying: Air dry the trainers away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.

  • Socks: Wearing appropriate socks is recommended for comfort and to help manage moisture.
