Product Information

Full details

The Asics Gel-1130 trainers are designed for adults seeking comfortable, lightweight footwear with a retro running-inspired aesthetic for everyday wear. The key benefit is the integration of GEL cushioning for superior shock absorption and breathability. A potential consideration is that the style, while retro, may not suit all fashion preferences. These trainers feature a mesh construction with synthetic overlays, a lace-up closure, padded collar, cushioned insole, and a durable rubber outsole.

FAQs

What type of activities are the Asics Gel-1130 best suited for?

The Asics Gel-1130 trainers are best suited for everyday wear, walking, and casual activities due to their comfortable GEL cushioning and lightweight, breathable design. They can also be used for light exercise.

How do I clean my Gel-1130 trainers?

Gently clean the exterior with a soft brush or a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or soaking the shoes. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

Are these trainers good for running marathons?

While the Gel-1130 offers good cushioning, they are primarily designed for everyday comfort and casual wear, not for high-performance marathon running. For serious running, dedicated running shoes are recommended.

What does 'GEL Cushioning' mean?

GEL Cushioning is a technology developed by Asics that uses silicone-based gel inserts in the midsole to provide excellent shock absorption, protecting your joints from impact.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to the Asics sizing chart and measure your foot if possible. Consider your typical shoe size in other brands, but be aware that Asics sizing may vary slightly. Reviews often mention if a particular model runs large or small.

Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?

The mesh upper is breathable, which means it is not waterproof. While they can handle light splashes, they are not ideal for heavy rain or wet environments. Ensure they are dried thoroughly if they get wet.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or poor fit

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try wearing them with appropriate socks. The shoes may require a short break-in period.

Reduced cushioning feel

The GEL cushioning is designed for shock absorption. While it provides long-term benefits, the immediate sensation might lessen with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are clean and dry.

Squeaking noise

This can sometimes occur due to moisture between shoe components. Ensure the shoes are completely dry. Sometimes, a powder can be applied inside if the insole is removable.
