FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

The ASICS GEL-1130 are primarily designed for casual wear and offer good comfort for daily activities. They are not optimized for professional marathon running.

What is the main difference from the original retro shoe?

The original retro shoe's materials have been updated with synthetic leather inserts for a more modern aesthetic and feel.

Can these trainers be worn by women?

While listed for men, the unisex design of some variants and the general comfort can make them suitable for women depending on sizing and preference. Check specific product details for gender classification.

What kind of support do these shoes offer?

How should I store my GEL-1130 trainers?

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight

Ensure you have the correct size. Wear with thin socks initially. If the issue persists, consider a professional shoe stretcher or try breaking them in with short durations of wear.

Slight squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the sole and insole. Try inserting a thin sock liner or talcum powder under the insole if removable.

Discoloration on synthetic leather

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions.
