FAQs

Are the ASICS GEL-1130 trainers suitable for running marathons?

The GEL-1130 is designed for retro running style and everyday comfort. For marathon running, specialized performance running shoes with advanced cushioning and support features are recommended.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. Your heel should feel secure without slipping.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the mesh upper offers breathability, it is not waterproof. These trainers are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. For heavy rain, waterproof footwear is advisable.

What is the main benefit of the GEL technology?

The GEL technology in the heel is designed to absorb shock upon impact, providing enhanced cushioning and a smoother transition during the gait cycle.

How often should I clean my GEL-1130 trainers?

Clean your trainers as needed, especially after significant wear or if they become visibly dirty. Regular spot cleaning can help maintain their appearance.

Do these trainers offer arch support?

The TRUSSTIC support system provides midfoot stability. While they offer general support, individuals requiring significant or specific arch support may need to consider insoles.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing system to better suit your foot shape. If the size is fundamentally incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size.

Slight discomfort after first wear

New shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole offers good grip but may perform differently on very wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Compatibility:

These trainers are designed for general adult use and are compatible with standard athletic or casual socks. They are suitable for a variety of surfaces for casual wear and light training.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: For the mesh and synthetic overlays, use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cool water to gently clean away dirt. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the shoes.
  • Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Wipe with a damp cloth. Stubborn marks on the rubber outsole can be removed with a rubber cleaner.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Never machine dry.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and material integrity.
